1. Relevant commentary on your own dull life.
Posts should be about your own dull, lived experience. This is our most important rule. Direct questions, random thoughts, comment baiting, advice seeking, many uses of "discuss" rarely comply with this rule.
2. Original, Fresh, Meaningful Content.
3. Avoid repetitive topics.
4. This is not a search engine
Use a search engine, a tradesperson, Reddit, friends, a specialist Facebook group, apps, Wikipedia, an AI chat, a reverse image search etc. to answer simple questions or identify objects. Also see rule 1, “comment baiting”.
There are a number of content specific communities with subject matter experts who can help you.
Some other communities to consider before posting:
5. Keep it dull.
If it puts us to sleep, it’s on the right track. Examples of likely not dull: jokes, gross stuff (including toes), politics, religion, royalty, illness or injury, killing things for fun, or promotional content. Feel free to post these elsewhere.
6. No hate speech, sexism, or bullying
No sexism, hate speech, degrading or excessively foul language, or other harmful language. No othering or dehumanizing of anyone or negativity towards any gender identity.
7. Proofread before posting.
Use good grammar and punctuation. Avoid useless phrases. Some examples: - starting a post with "So" - starting a post with pointless phrases, like "I hope this is allowed" or “this is my first post” Only share good quality, cropped images. Do not share screenshots of images; share the original image.

I often do you mow then? I mow every 2 weeks and the grass is barely 6” long.
Water every 2 days, fertilize when needed, but the clover does a good job of that.
Depending on the year, once a week over June, then once a week and a half or so in July, and then every couple of weeks in August and By September mowing is done. I don't water or fertilize. A mix clover, alfalfa, and grasses is a tough yard cover and requires little care.
You say requires little care and you’re mowing it twice as often.
I just mow every 2 weeks from middle of May to Sept. and that’s only because the city would complain that it’s too long.
I have June grass seeded into the mix. During the month of June it grows fast. And since I live on a hillside, June is often the wettest month and I need that fast growth to hold the soil and prevent heavy washing. As June passes I need to mow less and less. This year I have only needed to mow twice so far, and I will need to mow less and less as summer moves into the dry part of the year and the grasses will go dormant.
