To me, a garden is meant to invite nature into your home so that you can enjoy it in comfort.You could also see it as an extension of your house’s aesthetics, arranging plants such that they complement the effect of your architecture.You could even turn it into a museum, collecting rare and unusual species and putting them on display for the pleasure of both you and your neighbors.Or, if you’re a boomer, you could kill everything there and leave it as a desert - taking some kind of sick pleasure in your total opposition to life itself.
>>533352030just because you cant afford a house doesnt mean you have to hate on nicely manicured lawns anon
Why is the grass cut like that? And how did they get the different shades of green?
>>533352331I live in a house and am anti-lawn
>>533352030yuuup its springtimethe boomers are dumping gallons of concentrated Round-Up! brand cancer all over their lawn and spraying it all over yours as well.mmmmmm springtime. just that faint hint of cancer on a springtime afternoon. to a boomer theres nothing better.unironically i think boomers spraying round up violates the nap and itd be righteous to genocide them.
>>533352415some retarded boomers have so little going on in their lives and theyre so pathetic and faggy that they attach rollers to the back of their mowers so they can get patterns like that when they mow.i just fucking mow my yard without faggy accessories like that.
>>533352331Nicely manicured lawns are inspired by Satan, who hates God's beautiful creations that He designed to live in the region.
>>533352030Here's a cool bug I found in my garden
>>533352415I like having my gardens.But I like having grass to to play with my kids and the asthetics are nice. My wife loves planting both sorts of gardens. Flowers/ornamentals amd veggie/fruit gardens. the grass is just a nice ground cover for large expanses. I do have clover and other ground covers around in certain areas.
>>533352030Lawns were literally invented so the rich could show off the fact they could afford to have vast tracts of land with no practical use whatsoever, in a time when any urban greenspace was normally used for food or grazing. The point of a lawn is to have no real practical purpose. Its one of the dumbest chimp bravado shows our species has ever managed to come up with.
>>533352331You sound like you suck penis like a lollipop
>>533352030How I sleep knowing my lawn is mowed properly and there are no insects bothering when I enter or leave my mansion.
>>533352745Having a lawn for the kids is nice, but you don't have to fall into the boomer American trap of a pesticide-soaked monoculture. My lawn has maybe 10 different kinds of grass in it, plus clover, daisies, moss, and whatever else I feel like sprinkling on there, plus all of the weeds that I can't be bothered pulling up.Here's what it looks like at this exact second. Probably needs a mow, but otherwise I think it's fairly healthy. The kids enjoy it.
>>533352492No one asked tho.
>>533352030These people are chasing a status symbol from hundreds of years ago that's hopelessly out of date, it's kind of sad to see. In the late 1700s a neatly mown lawn was a sign of status and wealth because it meant you were able to pay a bunch of people to laboriously cut your grass by hand in a never-ending battle against it growing back, but as technology improved and lawnmowers (the manual kind) massively reduced the barrier to the neat lawn club the focus for big impressive gardens shifted in the complete opposite direction with elaborate flower displays and intricately sculpted hedges and shit. Apparently the average American Joe missed the memo and got hardstuck on the "waow short grass means I'm successful" part.
>>533353083Honestly surprised to hear an Australian man has grass
>>533352635My crows go nuts when i feed them these, they love em.
>>533352331This things are horrible. Lawns are disgusting vain attempts to do better than god.
>>533352415Stupid nips. You weren't nuked enough.Also, another commie anti-lawn thread brought to you by the same fags that hate pickup trucks. You need to go back to your gay subreddits.
>>533352030i remember a "new" neighborhood with houses like this and it sucked for everyone including the stressed doctor parents that lived their and had ruined relationships throughout the family but nice lawns
>>533352415>>533352415>>533352415>>533352331>>533352853>>533352858>>533356775I'd rather want trees around me. I have a couple birds feeders and a bird bath. I sit on my porch in the morning and watch while I sip coffee
>>533352030to be allowed to have a garden one should be required to plant a number of trees and other things and also be required to plant a minimum of several thousand calories worth of fruits and veggies per year.else you will be taxxed to deathalso new construction will require X watts per sqft roof in solar + mandatory battery solutionwhy?because fuck you that's why
>>533352509>unironically i think boomers spraying round up violates the nap and itd be righteous to genocide them.kek
>tfw yard is a blend of natural wooded area, landscaping, local wildflower garden, vegetable garden, and grassI fucking love my yard bros.
>>533352030You're pretty retarded if you don't know how hard it is to have a nice yard. If you're doing even basic shit that golf courses do (and you need to to have a perfect yard) you're basically a farmer, but of monoculture grass. You could take that knowledge and apply it anywhere to agriculture. I wonder if Asians care about their yard and landscaping materialistically
I love my lawn
>>533352858This. I wish I could have a laser defense system to instantly kill all insects that trespass onto my property.
>>533356504it's to keep pests and vermin away, retard
It's a fucking waste of space. You could literally make your house bigger instead of having some empty nothing that just there to attract and grow bugs to get into your house.
>>533357139I had a dragonfly land on my lip
>>533357214>Ape instantly thinks about favela extensions
>>533356985Same. A nice mix of trees and flowers.
>>533352030It's cargo cult shit. Boomers grew up generally aware of how their parents and their parents before them kept their properties but didn't ever fully understand the why behind the habits so when they grew up they took what they remembered, misapplied some, misremembered other stuff, ignored a whole lot then applied it to a completely different setting and condition than existed for their elder's generations. The reason their parents had manicured lawns around their houses is because they came from more rural areas and they had trees and bushes and wilderness beyond the lawn. The point of the lawn was to outcompete bushes and trees and shrubs that animals and insects would nest in. Lawns were exclusion zones to keep critters from living directly next to or on the surface of the home so they wouldn't wreck your siding or get into your attic or basement. Lawns were a practical thing. But now everyone lives in developments where the lawn is literally the only living thing for thousands of feet so it being manicured nolonger matters. The only critters that are going to get into your house are raccoons and only because your dumbass wife lets stuff fall out of the garbage/yardwaste bin and leaves a trail leading to somewhere they can crawl into somewhere they shouldn't be.
>>533356862Fuck off jew. Hating on monoculture grass to support insects and normal life has nothing to do with hating on a truck. What a retarded comparison
>>533357249Yet you're the one who wants to live in a forest full of bugs.
>>533357277Cities always have rat problems. As soon as all the yards went to seed you'd have the plague in inner cities. On second thought maybe it's a good idea
>>533357343>cities Are not what we’re talking about, and rats survive there off of food sources that have nothing to do with grass. You’re a retarded city dwelling urban shitskin aren’t you. How do places like Chicago or NYC manage to have incredibly awful rat infestations despite no grass? How do rats survive in desert cities that have little to no grass to begin with?
>>533357096Watch out, those little shits are littered with parasites and rabies
>>533357443Right id assume the population explosion would be from the habitat you have just created for all the animals. I was thinking maybe it would be balanced out by predators so you'd have what. Packs of coyotes in the street potentially? snakes? Owls, hawks.
>>533352782Just like business suits. They were made to restrict movement in purpose, because it meant you were so rich you have help doing all the physical labor for you and you didn't even need to move.Suits were worn by aristocrats to flex on the working class. And the working class is so fucking stupid it has adopted it as a work outfit.
>>533352415They use slightly different blade heights for alternating lines
>>533357314If you want to live in a giant insect cosmopolitan, go live in a swamp, Shrek. I'm gonna keep my Hank Hill tier lawn mowed, fertilized, and insect free.
>>533352509I had to do a job at some manicured lawn boomoids house the other day, the entire time I was there the air stunk of roundup, I have never smelled it so powerfully or for so long as that. They must have been dumping litres of the stuff all over their property. Pretty sure I have lung cancer now.How can it be allowed for any retard to spray a gorillion litres of poison everywhere on their property and poison everything in the area as well as the groundwater.Why do we even fucking need all these poisons? A rational nation state would ban that shit and devote a % of GDP to building mega facilities for long term food storage for the excess production to hedge against locusts and disease and shit. You know, like how every civilisation did for all time until someone decided it was easier to just spray poison on everything.I fucking hate the modern world.
>>533353083Hey faggoty yank that's called white clover and it's invasive to Australia.You are a shame job.
I have a wildflower meadow and a grove on my property so I see tons of fireflies in the summer.
>>533357603Excuse me, are you calling our multibillion dollar product "poison?"
>>533357756Hire a crop duster to take care of your infestation. Enjoy the peace.
>>533352030I love a good suburbs hate thread>>533352331stfu boomer you fucking up the housing market and our chilhoods with this bullshit is why this board exists.
>>533352331Lawns are boomer cargo cultism. Trying to recreate Versailles for their own homes with no understanding why it was like that.
>>533356775Lawns are great, they keep the dust down and are nice to walk on with bare feet.
>>533352331Nicely manicured ain't shit if the homeowner also doesn't get the TruLawn total package and dump hazardous fertilzers right on the surface every two weeks. No boomer worth his salt is going to skip over a product that comes with a sign warning of risk to humans and animals for 72 hours after application.
>>533357540That seems tedious
>>533357756Based anon. Enjoy it, it sounds beautiful. There are no fireflies where I live, now. When I was a kid in the upper Midwest before they started using all the BT corn, there used to be a crazy eruption of them ever May or June. Damn those summer nights were cozy
>>533357277this, and boomers do dumb shit like leave the back door and windows open to "let air in" and "I have nothing to hide!!">>533357343>>533357443rats will stay away from you're house if you keep a cat or literally pay maybe 400 bucks once a year if they are bad in the area.
>>533352030If you don't cut your grass you'll get snakes here. Copperheads in particular love that shit.
>>533358100I know a guy who has been bitten eight times by eastern browns. Yall are pathetic cucks, more guns than air to breathe but won’t do what your countries founders said to do and use them to remove the rancid pedo racket in charge of your nation.
>>533358100>don't go outside without decent boots?also they sort of ignore you desu. but seriously if you live around copperheads get some snake boots, they like the curl up underneath your house if you don't have foliage. >t. ubermensch hillbilly>>533357940see only a modern NPC would think walking around outside without shoes is a good idea.
>>533352331i much prefer my shitty apartment building garden to that hellscape
>>533357477Just like our women are.
>>533352030There are blanket treatments for lawns that kill off insect life, including the airborne varieties. Iz Naice
>>533358222So you're saying I shouldnt cut my grass because I can survive getting bit? That's fucking retarded. >>533358312I live on the edge of a swamp, I've got more than copperheads that come up in here and I do have boots, but I prefer for them to stay in the swamp and out of my yard.
>>533357139>laser defense system to instantly kill all insectsInsects are gods creatures too
>>533352331Manicured lawns are an English inspired aesthetic, they don't belong anywhere it's not natural. You shouldn't be wasting water to keep your imported grass alive. Everyone here should take the desert rose pill. Cactus, rocks, sand, old tv's stacked on top of each other, old cars, a cholo.
>>533358426I'm saying you should sell that Karen enlcosure and go build something outside city limits and still have a lot left over. but know I wouldn't put time into a lawn. I have a rock path that goes to everything in my yard I use. Im also not a fag like OP Idgaf how any of it looks as long as the onions and potatoes come in and the rabbits don't start a blood feud with my chickens again. fuck the suburbs I couldn't imagine living within 100 feet of normies.
>>533357561kek
>>533358313Looks nice estoniabro
>>533352331There is nothing more boomer than a perfect lawn. They use resources to fertilize, to weed, to have someone mow and edge. They care for it or pay someone else to once or twice a week. They even water the lawn daily and invest in automated sprinkler systems. It serves no function except to show affluence. They could have a garden, or flowers. But no, the only diversity they want is browns who they employ to care for their lawns.Grass seed used to be mixed with clover, which fertilized the grass. But boomer greed made them remove clovers and demonize them as weeds. Instead, fertilizer was sold separately to profit the boomer.
>>533358761cholo fits are the best pleb costume especially if you have ink. very comfy and basic. gotta have the shades though
>>533356985I have begun enjoying the obnoxious blue jays.
>>533358906Boomers have lead in their brain. They're low IQ.
>>533358804My guy, I don't have the money to even begin any of that. I have a place to have fires, an above ground pool, a shed, but to keep the grass manicured isn't for appearances here either it's to keep nature seperate from Im living. My neighbors have chickens, turkeys and all that too but they cut the front yard for the same reasons as me. The duck shit kills the grass in the back.
There was this neighborhood when I was a kid that everyone called the shitty one. Trees everywhere.All the "better" neighborhoods cut all the fucking trees down. It was in the south so it naturally became unbearable and nothing outside can survive in open sun with no coverage. So now that poorfag shit neighborhood is the only nice one. Easily 20 degrees cooler there than anywhere else in town.
>>533358906see?! they have a rock path. put a gravel patch where you walk. no snake bites.
>>533359037Boomers hate life. They want to terraform the planet into a giant parking lot.
>>533352030I saw a bunny rabbit in my back yard yesterday.
>>533358351Ahem, why would anyone, anyone ever, anyWHERE, dump that reputation-destroying shame on the internet?
>>533352030to me a garden is something to hold the dirt down, filter air, and provide shadeanything that is not directly involved in those three things is not welcomefuck naturenature is a pile of rotting shit with stuff growing out of it that attracts and supports verminbesides just looking and smelling ugly
>>533352415Everyones answer is wrong. The real reason the stripes appear is from going back and forth in straight lines. You dont need a roller, nor is it cut in different lengths..its all the same height. The sun helps pop the stripes better when the angle is right. Most mower decks..the front sits lower than back..which pushes the grass blades down in the direction of travel. Diamonds are made from going cross hatch back and forth straight lines. Circles are just going in a circle one eay..then changing direction for next layer of circle.
>>533359118I have rabbits and squirrels during the day and racoons and possums at night. The animal activity increased a lot after my dog passed away.
>>533358313nice
>>533359036>average 2 bedroom house goes for 200k/300k>buy land 15k>put in water feature 20k if its deep (not an issue for you)>build dwelling 50k (if you aren't a cuck about it)>enjoy your 110k or soif you are renting one of those you cant be helped. I'm guessing there's also a woman somewhere if ur doing that.
>>533352030Mowed many lawns. This is fake and gay. Why not use a real image?
>>533359259I live here with family and my girlfriend. It's just a doublewide with 2 acres.
>>533352331lawns are a fuck ton of wasted resources and juts pollute the water table further and other ecosystems with monsanto chemicals and insecticides. boomers are a fucking cancer on the earth and neo-boomers will also get the rope on the day of the pillow.
>>533359144People dont like hearing that stuff.
>>533352331do you take care of your own lawn or do you pay a gang of leaf blower pricks to do it? i have a feeling there would be a lot more bushes, trees and flowers on the average property if the maintenance wasn’t being done by a gang of loud pricks trying to squeeze in as many jobs as they can.
>>533359352honestly if 2 people contribute money wise I'd be cool with it. I've seen worse at least your not living somewhere to keep up appearances like that retard from Argentina.
>>533358351This fuckin whore (not picrel) gave me chlamydia, and gonnorhea at the same time. Thank god both were cured with a course of anti biotics, but my dick was leaking like a busted pipe

>>533359569We all contribute. It's a pretty cool place, I've got no complaints about the house or land itself.
>>533352492I live on my lawn and I am antihouse.
>>533358351lol normies and their vlogs>>533359137being stupid. nog who passed it on didn't tell her or the 50 others.... hahahahaha. but she's gunna tell her parents. bad move.
>>533356633Why would that be weird? Basically every house has grass + garden beds here, go on Google Streetview.>>533357642I simply do not care. I bought it from an Australian seed company and I'm not the only one in my neighbourhood with it on my lawn. I also use literally zero fertilizer or weed killer.
>>533352509Round up is essentially agent orange. I do not allow chemicals on my lawn.
>>533357985very
>>533352030This is just crazy to see.People that dont understand.They think the world is a sandbox whereGod has given them everything theirheart desires.They refuse the truth on all fronts.Death and decay follow the retardedwherever they go.
>>533352030the HOA frowns upon inviting nature in to your home.
The answer, as ever, is synthesis leaning more or less in either direction depending on the context
>>533352415its cut to lay the grass in opposite directions giving it the effect of different shades.

>>533352030I leave my lawn as natural as possible. As long as it's all green, I don't care.I throw down clover seeds regularly. They're very good for the soil and the bees love them. I also like to collect the mushrooms that grow on my lawn and study them.
>>533360169Have you tried that pitch at burning man?
>>533352030I hate this shit. 99% turf grass and the 1% that's shrubs or trees is invasive garbage
>>533360218based bee enjoyer. there must be a bumblebee hive somewhere near me since the flowers outside my window are covered with the fuckers all summera few years ago I saw the biggest fattest bumblebee I've ever seen, I was in awe at the size of the lad
>>533360293All you need is a bird feeder
>>533360218I get panterinoides in spring and destroying angels in fall
>>533360349Bumblebees are quite gentle. I've been right beside hives before and they don't care.
>>533356504Did you ever consider that perhaps the boomer chooses the perfectly trimmed lawn because they merely prefer the aesthetic and are in fact, wholly unaware of 18th century aristocratic status symbols?
>>533360413Destroying angels are my favourite mushroom.
>>533360259my racism wouldn't go over well but there's always the renn fair. medieval life with internet and no disentary (yet). you even still get taxed whenever you go to town. kek it's perfect.
>>533352782The sand traps in golf was originally a pile of shit before lawn mowers were invented. Rarely it was a pile of sand if it hit the beach.

>>533360465You don't want the kind of girl you'll find at fucking ren faire. Or burning man, for that matter.
Working for landscaping company in Canada they put me on the lawnmower team. Only for a week and a few days. My European brain could not process diagonal pattern lawnmowing. Something deep inside me was creating a mental blockade so to speak. The supervisors were cool, they could sense my confusion, disgust and the existential crisis this was causing. In just a week I lost weight, stopped eating and sleeping, barely talking or smiling.One Canadian drove over his lawn with his 4x4 and wrecked it so we had to lay down new lawn for 14$k. A few days after we finished he drove over it again. Another 14k. He did this 2 more times paying 56k for an ugly tiny piece of lawn.I think it's all the new houses breathing out formaldehyde and other chemicals that destroys their brains. The number of miscarriages in the neighbourhood was crazy, I wasn't the only one who noticed that.
>>533352635that's a shrimp, throw that on the barbie like your ancestors

>>53335263510/10 abo tucker right there
>>533360442Pretty much everything but bald faced hornets and yellow jackets are chill
>>533352030It's a balance... someone who lives near me has one of those "full" yards where everything is overgrown. You can tell it's deliberate and not just neglect, but it stresses me out...as if triggering some kind of primordial instinct that I might get ambushed by a lion. I need some field of view, and also landscaping reduces pest activity and other issues. There needs to be a balance
>>533360465>Going to rennfair when you have pennsic
>>533361093Honestly even bald faced hornets and yellowjackets are pretty chill. Jsut the other day I watched a bald faced hornet dive bomb a hoverfly out of the air, bite its head off and truck off the body
>>533361093its a different level with bumblebees though. they have an abnormally high threshold for what counts as antagonizing them
>>533360899you don't have to use algebra unless you tackling a commercial project. actually you'll be more likely to sell to some weirdo if it looks different and has cool features>>533361015I considered getting a booth to sell shit I make a few years ago but uh..... yeh no. cucked like every other fan convention. not as bad as say.... idk star wars but its bad. redditors in foam armor.

>>533361190you're retarded. The day of the diatomaceous earth/gas bomb comes for hornets of all kinds.
>>533361872Maybe they're just chill for me, they come in my window, tool around the place and leave. They do have a tendency to randomly get in your face outside sometimes but if you don't sperg out nothing happens.Yellowjackets keep the grasshoppers and caterpillars down in my garden, too.
>>533359639You're lucky they weren't the antibiotic resistant kind. Also AIDS. Honestly, the juice ain't worth the squeeze.
I have a small property but in the five years I’ve been here I got rid of all the grass and Home Depot special plants. I focused on vertical production with lots of trellised berry vines and currants, espaliered fruit trees, edible ground covers and lots of plants for pollinators. I made raised beds for vegetables and grow huge wine cap mushrooms in the mulch along a shaded area. Last year I build a pond and planted/added lots of aquatic and semi-aquatic plants.My neighbours and people walking by are always commenting on my gardens. My front yard is basically landscaped with edibles and pollinators and even the walkway is made from pavers surrounded by blue star creeper and ground thyme.It looks 1000 times better than some boomer hellscape and I have lots of pollinators, insects and birds. It’s fun to work on and my kids enjoy harvesting and eating what I grow. I like making preserves and fruit leather so that’s another nice activity.For a small property I have a very good yield, it’s fun and it’s aesthetically appealing.
>>533359877It's what happens with sheltered whores. They "slum it up" and then find out what consequences are, usually the hard and incurable way.
>>533362229>edible ground covers
>>533352509>boomers spraying round up violates the napIMO it does. That and the fact that they'll call the city inspectors on all of their neighbors for not falling in line with them, too. I hate them so much. Boomers are worse than niggers.
>>533361024The foam, the styro and the wood itself, the plywood glue. Thise houses need to breathe out those toxins for at least 7-10 years. It's insanity to put pregnant women and small children into those houses.

>>533362308people eat that weed purslane
>>533362892It’s bad bro I shitpost but we fucked up badly too. Every river plain here has been raped by intensive dairy farming. Aquifer water poisoned by excess nitrates from fertiliser and million cow shits, the rivers turned green with algal bloom if they haven’t been simply sucked dry by gigantic pivot irrigators running at 1pm on a summer day. The lower reaches of a lot of our rivers have signs that say “don’t let your dog drink this water it will kill them”.

>>533352030The amount of water spent to keep clipped grass so green...
>>533352030I love just walking around my property seeing all the varied plants and life.It feels like a buffer to shield my space from the surrounding suburb/city.>>533352331It's because I have a house that I have opinions about land management.>>533356985>>533356989Multi-level perennial food forest.

>>533357944This. Both neighbors on the other side of my house used the same lawn company and both their dogs got the same esophageal and ass cancer at the exact same time and died at the exact same time both at age 6, and one neighbor's second dog got the same cancer 3 years later and had to be put down last month (they just drop them off at the vet and leave). Fucking incredible
>>533358906All aspects of their personality revolve around consumption. A closed loop ecosystem of a property isn't something they understand and definitely can't be made to want
>>533358906I have a nice big hilly lawn and a lot of mature trees. It is my natural line of defense from all of the fieldmice and rats since I live in farm country. I don't care what grows as long as it's not burdock or burning nettle. I have lots of clover and I like it like that. I just mulch the grass and leaves. I never understood why people rake everything up and dispose of it.
>>533362407Should be the nazis in your pic since they destroyed ussr country side.
>>533359887We think you are lying. I'm pretty sure the entire island is dust and dirt
>>533363649they have to hide in the cracks on the coasts where there's moisture
>>533352635cool
533352030Why do you retards keep replying to these 1PBTID reposting faggots? Don't forget to season the thread on your way out
How empty does your life have to be to sustain a multi-year spam thread campaign dedicated to hating and attacking grass?
I live between a forest and a cornfield.FUCK NATURE.You're a RETARD if you invite this so called "nature" into your living space.NO!NO RATSNO MICENO MOLESNO BUGS OF ANY KIND.OUT OUT OUT OUT.You're FUCKING STUPID.You do not pay for anything.You're a LEECH.And a RETARD.SPRAY THE POISON.LAY THE TRAPS.ANYTHING. Mow the lawn. Nature is mean't to be beaten back. Not coddled till its squatting in your living room taking a SHIT on the floor.GO TO HELL CITY FAGS.EAT SHIT SURURBANTIES.YOUKNOWNOTHING
>>533363857Not a single fucking plant there supports god damn ANYTHING. THrow a fucking bucket of peanuts onto your lawn you piece of SHIT. What you have a is a PEST NEST.
>>533352030My parents get truegreen service on their yard. I come over every once and a while to help plant bushes, cut hedges, mow, hardscape, etc.>why are there so many weeds, don't you get a guy out here to do that?>...yeah he said he sprayed twice this month, and that we have a bunch of ant hills in the lawn>oh...I mean ants aren't a huge issue, but I'll look...>dozens of pic relatedTheir service tech is a retard, and I'm glad he's not doing his job because he'd likely be fucking up their ecosystem. I'm still trying to convince them to let me fully convert their backyard to clover, fern, moss, and wildflowers.
>>533363861>Nature is mean't to be beaten back. I'm from the desert where the best you can hope to do is keep the rattlers out, and it's easy enough. Anything else and nature will laugh at you
>>533352030No, I won't stop mowing my lawn, bugnigger
>>533363438I never even thought of that they're all petfags almost. man that's even worse. I always wondered why they're dogs always look half dead or they're crazed out of their mind. one of my cats got mauled by a fox or something and still lived past 7. no idea how old the dog is
manicured boomer lawns is as bad as circumcisionfrfr
>>533363857I liked it then and I like it now. If you were ever forced to mow one of those in the hot sun, pay or no, you learn to hate it.
>>533352030I'm not poor so I have a massive well manicured lawn like that and I see fireflies and bumble/honey bees all the time. In fact, I spent thousands of dollars on bee friendly plants alone for my numerous garden beds and small farm.
>>533352030Nothing wrong with a nice lawn but having no trees or bushes or anything is disgusting
>>533364054you probably wont stop going outside in shorts either.
>>533364054Get chickens, you cuck. Nature has a solution to almost every one of you dumb, ape issues.>>533356989You'd have better luck convincing us to implement walkable cities. This is our "American Exceptionalism."Just like lack affordable healthcare and the imperial system...
>>533362812Yet I'm not the one wanting to live in a forest.
>>533363911>>533363861OY VEY YOU NEED TO CIRCUMCISE YOUR GRASS WITH THE LAWN MOHELNah.Get fucked.The USA bans fucking vegetable gardens, how gay.
>>533363998Where do you source your seed? I tried looking for wildflower seed to replace ~2 acres of grass but it’s like $1,200 for enough compared to like $100 of grass.>>533364054Manicured lawns are kike propaganda to kill your ecosystem, pump you full of carcinogenic chemicals, and waste your time on worthless crop. Get fuckin’ got, goyim.
>>533352030shitpost threadI see bees and other fliers every fucking day and my yard looks like that.yards don't stop creatures from existing, building constant nigger buildings for mexicans and jeets to live in does.
I live right next to (literally at the edge) of a federal forest reserve. The amount of nuclear powered gigantic bugs that come in my house is absurd, not to mention the spiders that are so huge they have both a health and a mana bar. I have so many encounters with aggressive wandering spiders that I just wish someone would level the whole forest desu. I don't get snakes because the huge lizards have won their war for territory.
>>533364216Damn straight
>>533358313Comfy
>>533352635I ate one of those once at a party for $28, thing was as long as my thumb. I got to cut the head off first but had to chew it. The skin was very tough, it was hard to chew up, and it tasted very bland and piney.
>>533364526the pine was probably its shit huh?
>>533352331that guy pays a spic thousands a year to poison his property and waste water
>>533364526>autistic kid who hangs out on 4chan eats bugs at social gatherings. Beautiful, champ.
>>533364291Two acres is a lot. Usually this is something I'd recommend for like a little English/Cottage Garden in you backyard (usually lawn in the front if you have a HOA). Sounds like your have land with no one around. But I don't think you're going to get pure wildflower coverage cheap (even the mixes would add up). Maybe try starting small, collecting and helping the native/first batch seed spread?
>>533364659https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lZbfNtDCHdM
>>533364642oh also poisoning and pets and kids that play on that shit>why is everyone getting cancer so early!!!!!!
>>533358313sovl
>>533364673Never in my entire life will I live in a fucking HOA. I’ve got 8 acres… ~6 of them is fully fenced pasture for sheep and chicken, and I run ryegrass/fescue/alfalfa/clover/orchard, with fruit trees planted by a pond.The other two is just street facing between privacy fence and property line, and I want to turn into a prairie and never mow it again. I’ll look at that site and compare to the local companies some more, thank you.
>>533364659That's like 20% of the SERE training experience.
>>533364819I planted some almond trees on mine because I have a sense of humor and I like money. guess who pays a shit ton of money for almonds?
>>533353083Looks terrible. jk, i'd just be worried about all those venomous spiders and snakes down there
>>533364936My wife’s sister is married to an almond/fruit farmer in California. Seems like pretty good money.I’m more interested in food for myself and friends though. I have zero ambition to ever make money from it even though I run a few hundred chicken on pasture every year. This country’s food is so fucked it’s insane, and the EPA’s only making it worse.
>>53335890699% of properties like this are owned by boomer women btw
>>533352030What do lightning bugs like? I live deep south Alabama and get a few lightning bugs but would love a bunch of em
>>533352415The dark green spots is probably where they pee, thats how it works in my yard anyway
>>533357642White clover feeds nitrogen to the soil making your grass greener and more lush, not all invasive species are bad, being a colony of Britannia I'd expect you to know that
>>533365298oh of course you have to grow food. that's very good money too actually. it's all about where you sell it. I plan on NEETing out here for many years, haven't had to get a wagie job for awhile. took a bit to get used to but the solitude is my favorite part. you can always clear away and start over if something doesn't work.
>>533365488Its called using the lawnmower and going in the other direction. Up and down. Then diagonally if you want it like OP
>>533365416Moist environments. Woods and meadows near a stream or river is peak. Lots of tall grasses with low hanging branches from trees allows them good spots to hunt and for their larvae to develop.
>>533365901There are at least half a dozen different shades of green, you accounted for two shades, pee spots accounts for another, idk how they get the rest
>>533352030This is a privelege issue. And I resist.
>>533364526rip
>>533366286Grubs are safe to eat. Slugs/snails are only safe cooked
>>533366130Thanks, I think what I have is as good as I can give them then, no creek but I have a big pond and all the other bits
>>533359209Sorry about your dog anon
>>533363438>>533364077I've never used lawn chemicals or anything, all my dogs and cats have lived to over 15 years each. My boomer neighbor that uses all sorts of lawn chemicals and shit, none of her dogs have lived past 7. She actually believes that dogs can't live past 9.
>>533363609I didn't make the meme.
>>533359922>keeping a cow AND pigs on a tiny parcel of a single acrewhoever made this is retarded
Round-Up is a fantastic poison. You can buy gallons of the stuff and essentially destroy people you hate in ways a gun or a knife could never touch. You can get their wives and kids too.
>>533352331This, the only thing I grew myself in the garden are aromatic and the rest take care of itself but THESE SON OF A BITCH NEIGHBORS KILLED THE ENTIRE LEFT SIDE BY SPOILING WEED EATER THE WHOLE WAYSometime I threw flower's seed randomly
>>533352030butterflies spread disease
>>533352030Someone post the white clover info graphic
>>533352030>To me, a garden is meant to invite nature into your home so that you can enjoy it in comfort.Just say you're non-white and skip all the rest and we get it. You're a savage.
>>533352030I still throw clover seeds and wildflower seed bombs all over the place and you niggers can't stop me
>>533352030lawns take specialized equipment, countless hours of work, and hundreds to thousands of dollars every year to keep them from looking like shit. Put native plants in the ground and you won’t have to worry about all that bullshit.
>>533367441>Just say you're non-white and skip all the rest and we get it. You're a savageexplain
>>533367441lawn supporters are retarded primates who know nothing about plants and think a blank sheet of dull green grass sprayed with cancerous chemicals is classy
>>533367608Just ticks and snakes and other insects you don't want around. Poison Ivy. Poison Sumac. Thorny bushes. Ugly yard full of leaves and pine needles.Basically a wild forest instead of a civilized man's garden.
I've planted heaps of flowering shrubs and trees on my property and have parrots and nectar birds all over the place.
>>533352509DUDE NON-HODGKINS LYMPHOMA LMAO
>>533367718>a civilized man’s gardenthe grass in your “garden” was bio-engineered in a lab to resist poisonous chemicals that would annihilate any other plant species. It is a manmade abomination made to be as convenient as possible for the person growing it, at the complete expense of the environment around it. Nothing about that is civilized.
>>533367872
>>533364229>imperial systemImperial system is maximum retardo and I believe it actually makes the people using it even more stupid.I kraut you not I had a discussion with a Burger once and said that Fahrenheit is also such a retarded concept compared to Celsius.My argument was that Celsius on this gay earth in anchored to two very, very easy to understand and recognize crucial states of the most fundamental elements of all life: water>water freezes below 0°C>water thaws around 0°C>water boils and vaporizes at 100°C or abouveMOTHERFUCKER REPLIED WITH>uhhh umm but what if you want to boil and freeze some other liquid?MOTHERFUCKER WHEN HAS YOUR FUCKING LIFE NOT REVOLVED ABOUT WATERHOLY FUCK
>>533363911What made you so retarded?
>>533352030
>>533368356You're a fool that doesn't understand freedom units.YES measuring chemicals or other things in science, which requires absolute accuracy) is easier and more efficient with a base-10 system.Base-12 is what you need for good enough. The Pyramids, ancient Greek temples, Big Ben, the finest Swiss watches, Atlantis, Lemuria, etc were not built using metric. Because metric has no real world measurement. It had to be defined FROM Base-12. Meaning Base-12 is used as a root to define metric, in the speed of light using seconds.Who needs 236.5ml when you can just cup your hands into a bag of flour and get one cup of flour?Both scales have their places. One is superior for science and metrology, the other is best for practicality.
>>533360456>Boomer chooses something because they're retarded and vain.Sounds about right.
>>533368356you are dumb asl bro. when is the last time you boiled lead?
>>533352635Thats a shrimp.
>>533369100>Who needs 236.5ml when you can just cup your hands into a bag of flour and get one cup of flour?who wants your fucking diabeetus hands in their flour?you guys are fucking retarded LMAO>>533369260>you are dumb asl bro>when is the last time you boiled lead?and motherfucker you're beyond "just retarded"how's your second language, btw.?
>>533357561I live in a swamp. Its nice. Especially around spring peeper time of year.
>>533369100Funny how the rest of the world manages perfectly fine without measuring things in football fields per fluidic ounce.
>>533357642And somebody had the golden idea of planting millions of eucalyptuses in California. Those fucking trees are nasty and a fire hazard
>>533358312Walking around bafefoot feels great. Haven't you ever heard of grounding?
>peopleYou mean amerimutts
>>533369813>>533369715go back to india, Rajnaprata
>>533352030Or if you’re a Deano NPC midwit fuckwit you can take the existing front of beautiful 1930s semi-detached home and pave it over or tarmac it just so you can park your lump of tin with wheels on it. And before you know it (monkey see monkey do) every silly cunt in the neighbourhood, in their keep up with the Jones’ mentality, has done the same.
>>533352331Lawns suck and you suck
>>533369719>the rest of the world manages perfectly fineDoes it now? Then why are we in charge? Why does the world watch us, imitate us, cheer us on or shit on us above all? Because we respect Base-12, the math of God.>>533369712Only retards can't count in base-12. We use metric and standard. It's not like we don't know metric. You think we can't understand our CPU/GPU temps?
>>533352030There's an entire board for this and it's not the one for politics. All fields.
>>533369953Mutts have homeowner associations that rape them in the ass if they do anything nonstandard.
>>533369712He’s on about the metric used being used for everyday things like cooking which is nothing short of absurd. The fuck is millilitres supposed to look like. Completely unintuitive and impractical.
>>533356989>build battery storage system for house>one lithium battery short circuits and burns down entire walkable city
>>533352030gardens are for niggers
