Lawns are you know them are largely an American concept and planting things like native plant species and wildflowers would require far less maintenance and be significantly better for the environment.

Actually it seems like the lawn care industry is booming right now because literally no one gets out and mows their own lawn anymore. So it's sort of a lawn renaissance

They'll just put the lawn down if they want to do the drugs bad enough.

What you consider weeds might be beneficial >_>

but lawns don't really have a point. The original purpose of them was to show off wealth - people owned land with nothing on them just because they were able to, and they wanted other people to know.
so yeah, lawns could choke. A complete waste of space!
A lawn chock-full of fruit trees and plants is best for the environment though!

There's nothing wrong with green space around your home if you're actually using it for something beneficial.

I've been lobbying for a permit to turn my lawn into a gravel pit for bit now. It's a slow process but i think I should have the rights soon. No more mowing, no more weeds because the gravel will be soaked in herbicide, and no more dumb ass kids running across my yard trying to play football

I don't understand lawns at all.

A garden, sure. That's full of living things. Plants, vegetables, trees, flowers. Gardens are interesting.

But a fucking lawn? What, a 30ft square patch of green nothing that you're supposed to go out and mow every two weeks and if you don't everyone thinks you're a loser. That's fucking stupid.

I've been seeing a lot more houses built here in San Diego without lawns and very small backyards.

Gotta have more space to make more money on more shitty houses. They will cost 500k+ too

I mow my lawn once a week, sometimes once every two weeks depending on rain, takes me about 45 minutes to hour. Its amazing exercise and I just throw on my headphones, pick an album and go to town. I weed once a month, thats literally all the maintenance required.

I believe the grass on the other side of the sidewalk (so right against the curb) is technically beyond my property line, but I cut it anyway because it'd look trashy not to.

You should check if you're actually expected to.

Some guy here who lived on a corner got rid of all his grass so he didn't own a mower or anything so he didn't mow the grass on the corner and the city went after him for it.
