I'm planning on overseeding this weekend and getting some fake owls to put out in my yard.
|
no idea if it'll work but I don't want to invest in straw or peet moss for my backyard.
for watering...likely 3x/day for the first 2 weeks, then maybe 2x/day for 2 weeks, then 1x/day for a couple weeks. using a sprinkler for 15 mins in each area.
