Would Normal Scott's 3 in 1 Prevent My Grass Seed From Germinating?
 in  r/lawncare  5h ago

Thank you! Yes, you're definitely right, and learning more is always beneficial. In the long term I definitely want to get this all down to a science and really understand everything I'm doing.

For now I'm just trying to get a quick jump start so I think what I'm going to do is plant/overseed then use the "Scott's for seeding".

Then over the course of the summer and especially going into the fall I want to start breaking things down and getting exactly the right products for my problems instead of going for these "X in 1" "miracle" solutions.

Northern US & Canada (or cool season) Would Normal Scott's 3 in 1 Prevent My Grass Seed From Germinating?

Hey guys,

I have a bit of a project ahead of me and I'm trying to take a relatively easy route. Plan is to do a lot of taking to get rid of tons of moss and manually remove certain weeds and rough up the soil a bit, then plant/overseed and then use some kind of 3 in 1 mix.

I bought normal Scott's 3 in 1, but it occured to me that there's a different version "for seeding". Would the normal kind stop my grass seed from germinating and growing? As far as I can tell it seems like the normal one does more vs weeds than the for seeding kind, but I'm guessing that's because the normal kind would stop your grass too lol.

You didn't fuck up, don't worry. Kids need learning moments like these, and there's really no more harmless way to learn about the concept of someone or something you care about passing away than this.

I eat less than tons of skinny people at McDonald's and chipotle how are they skinny? Do they eat nothing or rabbit food rest of day when I eat 2 other meals ?
 in  r/NoStupidQuestions  1d ago

Weight gain/loss is basically entirely based on calorie surplus/deficit. If you are eating more calories than you're burning per day, you WILL gain weight. What you eat is almost completely irrelevant. The total calories consumed is what matters.

Skinny people who eat a lot of fast food are either eating very little the rest of the day or doing a lot of exercise. People who do heavy manual labor for a living for example burn a TON more calories per day than someone working a desk job. If both of those examples eat 2500 calories per day, the laborer will probably not gain weight, and depending on the job they might even be at a deficit, but the desk job guy absolutely will.

I don't know your situation, but since you're making this post I'm guessing you're overweight. If you want to lose weight, set a hard limit of 1600 calories per day and I guarantee you'll lose 2-4+ pounds per month if you're not already close to a healthy weight. That's it. That's all you have to do. You can eat whatever you want as long as in total it's less than your target.

My wife and I started doing this last June. I am down 67 pounds and she is down 110. It seems hard at first. Especially before you even try. But after a couple weeks it's really not that hard, and when you're months in it's easy. It feels wrong to eat a lot now, and I'm always kind of mind blown when I think about how much more I was eating before.

If we can do it, you can too. Trust me, it's worth it.

Also very good to know thank you! Does adguard ever tend to mess with anything else? Like maybe particular sites refusing to work when the ads won't make it through or something?

What is the free equivalent that you use? Thinking maybe I should do something like this.

Thank you! Sometimes it feels like there isn't a single other person on the Internet that has considered using their brain at all. It feels like a hivemind... Glad to know there's at least one other functional human being on the internet. Lol

Man looks off to the side with no context.

Holy shit, people. I dislike Trump as much as the next guy but this kind of no context bullshit, grasping at straws to find every little possible fiber to hate him for is so obsessive and pathetic. It's absolutely insane how many upvotes shit like this gets.

And I'm sorry but even if you're the most die hard American, I guarantee that you have had the audacity to look around during a moment of silence at some point in your life. Most people don't stand there like a statue looking at the ground the whole time.

Northern US & Canada (or cool season) Need Advice to Fix My Lawn - Tons of Weeds

Thumbnail

1 Upvotes

Hey all,

Western Pennsylvania, still pretty cool here but just getting to appropriate soil temps now.

I bought my house in the fall of 2023. Unfortunately the previous owner was renting the place out and not taking care of the yard at all, and the neighbors are the same situation. The neighbors were also letting their dogs shit in this house's yard without ever picking it up, not even once, but that's a story for another day... (Hence the fence now)

I mowed it regularly last year, but didn't do much else. This year I want to get it in a good place. It doesn't need to be perfect but I want it to be nice. A very high percentage of the grass is gone now and there are tons of weeds. The neighbors lawns are much worse even, and their weeds constantly bleed into my yard.

My original plan was to use a bottle of Spectracide for lawns to kill all the weeds, them use a hoe/rake to churn up the soil anywhere that doesn't have grass, wait a month, then plant seed over the whole lawn and rake it in. Then some Scott's 3 in 1 after that. That will probably work, but it's also going to be a ton of manual labor even for my tiny yard.

Another thought was just getting some Scott's 3 in 1 (the version for after seeding) and just overseeding then spreading the 3 in 1, but I'm afraid that might not be enough. It's hard for me to imagine the seed really catching on at all doing just that, but IDK I'm a new homeowner, I don't know anything haha.

I'd love to hear anyone's advice on what they think I should do based on my pictures above.

How many hours do you typically spend in meetings in your role?
 in  r/ProductManagement  4d ago

I'm actually only in like 3-5 hours of meetings per week on average. But I think my role involves drastically more hands on work than most and I'm also staunchly anti meeting unless absolutely necessary lol.

Anybody else dislike a food, but not because of taste, or texture?
 in  r/CasualConversation  8d ago

Yes that's how I am with a lot of messy foods. Saucy Chicken wings are a prime example. Especially when you have facial hair. It's just so gross eating them and getting sauce all over your hands and face. Especially in public.

I think I may have just spotted the same car! I've seen it multiple times at various thrift stores in my area. (Twice today actually lol)

I wish I grabbed a better picture, but I just snapped a quick one while we were driving by to check on Google lense because I couldn't remember what these were called. Your thread popped up in the lense search and that's how I got here haha.

They do? I don't think I've ever had to verify anything I've put on there.

Edit: so long story short, it seems like you can verify your workplace, but you don't have to.

People who don’t hit snooze in the morning, what is your secret?
 in  r/AskReddit  12d ago

I don't set an alarm unless I have to get up for something that day, and I set my alarm for exactly when I need to get out of bed and get ready. It's either get up or be late at that point which has never been a hard decision for me.
