Hey, Mick...add weed killing to the list. Been battling this thing called "parslane" for a few years and it's winning. I researched it and find out that each plant is capable of producing 240,000 seeds! ..Oh, and the seed can lay dormant for 5 -20 yrs. I get the feeling that it's a hopeless battle. Trying something new...

Hey Al, just got done at my eye doctor appointment. He said I could see fine and you're full of crap. He said the Ultra isn't gray scale.

Fine. My second opinion is that you're full of crap too. Haha

I've missed you today Uncle Larry!
Hey, what color is Al's Ultra? Tell me, I'll keep it a secret.

Bob made pancakes at WS19, way better and fluffier than what I've been making. Aunt Jemima mix.
Purslane has been a food staple in many parts of the world, easily hoed, but the cut off parts will root on damp soil so have to be removed. Grass, in my yard anyway, crowds it out, only grows with less competition. I often let a spot grow thick, good in salads and a variety of cooking, like most soups and casserole dishes. When your lawn gets established, shouldn't be a problem. In flower beds, yes. I think the leaves taste a little like green peas when raw. Once your yard has it, or even neighbors, it's yours forever where you don't want it. It's incredibly prolific in the right climate (climates it likes: N&S America, Australia, Africa, Asia and Europe.)
The grass may be greener on the other side but at least you don't have to mow it.
