robbyI have finished building the irrigation system, and it's laying on the surface of the ground. One sprinkler is still not adjusted properly, but that's a small thing to do on a warmer day.
The next thing is to spray the existing "grass" with Roundup and kill everything, then till the ground and add compost, and bury the pipes. After that, comes the seeding. If I buy lots of gravel and totally gravel the second section, I'll be halfway done with the outer section, which is enough for one year.
One problem with putting gravel out there, is that I'll create an attractive "turning around" place for cars and trucks. One thought is that I could add little planted areas to make it difficult for people to drive across.
