Default lawn winterize

As testified by the dissolved granular fertilizer runoff from my front yard to
my gravel driveway. Roundup ain't doing the trick for more than a couple of
months in the gravel drive. Nothing grew in that compacted gravel/red clay
roadbase until I seeded front lawn in and fertilized.


Roundup only kills the greenery it gets on. After that, the remaining seeds are
ready to go. There are other chemicals with longer action.
