What is a good use for unwanted bamboo weeds?

Wednesday, September 1st, 2010

I have these AWFUL terrible bamboo weeds growing in my back yard, at first it was just a little patch but now they have multiplied and taken over. The more I pull them out the more they grow back, I just can’t seem to get rid of them…
In the winter theyre not so bad because they are just dried out stalks

Is there something I can use them for maybe tea or cooking???
Does anyone know how to get rid of them with a spray or weed killer?

It’s about a foot or so down, is green, smaller than a garden hose, and is rubber again like a garden hose. Does anyone think they know what it is please?

How do I keep my 2 dogs out of my raised flower beds?

Thursday, October 29th, 2009

I have 3 raised flower beds in my back yard. They are about 2 feet high. My problem is that my two dogs run through them which is not good for my beautiful flowers! There is plenty of room for the dogs to run around elsewhere, but they always take a shortcut through the flowers. Will sprinkling the edges with pepper work? Will it hurt the dogs?

My back lawn is a mess. How can I grow grass through moss, shade, and compact soil?

Wednesday, October 28th, 2009

I live in Northeast Ohio and we are selling our house within the next year. We have a shaded back yard on a ravine. All of the grass has died over the year and patches of moss and weeds have taken its place. The soil is compact, but it seams to drain well despite that. What can we do to start getting grass up? Should we til or aerate? Should we lay down compost and lime?
