always mow before they get white and puffy. the puffy stuff are seeds. if you dont yer screwed. you can buy a tool for digging up dandy lions. it looks like a crow bar with a v shaped notch in the business end.. get it , dig em out and always mow before they go white.

no more dandy lions.

Hell if it weren't for the dandy's I wouldn't have a green lawn! I really can't wait for the heat of summer ... no watering, mow it so it's about 1/2" long and let it burn. No maintainance and more time to fish. I'm almost ready to pave the front yard and paint it green.

I hate grass ... yeah even the ones you twist up too.

Insanity is a long and winding road ... I think I finally made it there.

Dandelios are absolutely out of control around here. Usually I can go out a few times with a five gallon bucket and an old knife I found and go down for the root and once they're gone that's it, so I tried a Vigoro Weed 'n Feed this year and was amazed at the job it did on the dandelions. And after putting that down if there were spots it seemed I missed, I just took my hand held monkey grinder spreader. In a matter of days it was obvious I won. Unfortunately, whatever was in that fertlizer was like steroids on the grass. It grows back very fast and very green. I have a service do my front yard and they cut it twice. one guy in one direction and than another goes in another. Last week, they had to have a third guy come with grass catchers to vacuum up what the first two couldn't mulch. I forget which Vigoro Weed 'N Feed, think it had a 19 in the mixture numbers.
