The Nastier Nate posted:in defense of the lawn, they are basically the only stormwater management that some suburban sprawl neighborhoods have if you're in the midwest, native plants with deep root systems help drain water quicker since they break up the soil deeper than turf grass. they may increase the water holding capacity of the soil as well, but that does less to drain stormwater.

Those native grasses grow higher than 12 inches and are therefore illegal lmao

I dug up a big chunk of my front yard and planted a garden. I don’t think my boomer neighbors like it but gently caress them we don’t have a HOA. The tomatoes are delicious, and composting is super easy. The back yard is mowed often enough that we can go throw around a ball or shoot a BB gun or set up a hammock or slackline. The part at the very back next to the creek is completely overgrown with native grasses. This year a fox moved in and raised a litter of kits.  Grass monoculture sucks. Thank you for coming to my TED talk.

If you have to have grass and you're in a place where it's native it pretty much kicks rear end.

tokin opposition posted:Every lawn is a victory garden gone to waste. Grow your own veggies and eat them you fat fucks Please test your soil and use raised beds, especially if you are in an area with former or current industry. I remember an incident from one community meeting the EPA was forced to hold that I attended, and a lifelong resident asked if the chemical emissions and soil contamination being discussed meant she had to stop vegetable gardening at home. She said gardening together was one of the best ways she was able to engage with her son who had developmental disabilities. The EPA official looked visibly disturbed and asked her never to dig up soil on her property again and definitely not to eat anything grown there.

It’s a fun horticultural challenge to grow perfect grass, I’m gonna do a 4x20 strip and try to get it to putting green levels. I use a manual push mower, water w rain water, and weed by hand, so the impact is minimal. Everything else is local perennials in beds and trees, and I don’t touch the back. If you’re not willing or able to do this (totally reasonable, I acknowledge that I’m insane) then ya xeriscape it. Also- this means you can’t have much more grass than what I have unless you’re retired E: I do use chemical fertilizer for my plants but it’s 12/1/4 matching the composition of plants, so uptake is excellent and little ends up in waterways. Phosphate is way overdosed in every other fertilizer, plants don’t need much of it!!!
