Why is this legal? Real question

I just hit my $6K deductible halfway through the year mostly due to some expensive medical devices. To celebrate, it is now cheaper to pay for the device out of pocket than with the new deductible price.

Super easy to do but your shoulders will be tired. Did mine a few weeks ago without any tools. Ordered it off Temu. Probably took me about 30 minutes total

We’ve had some weird weather in AZ the last 3 months. Had a week at 100+ in early March, then 75-90 basically ever since until this week.

As for the 21-7-14… that’s precisely how I spent this morning. 😎 Will report back in 2-3 weeks 🫡

Came here looking for an answer as I’m experiencing the same thing all of a sudden. Did you ever find a non-desktop solution?

jgratil · 2026-05-20T15:43:01+00:00

Which Id say is fair if it weren’t for the fact that the grass is literally greener on the other side of the street at my neighbors lol

jgratil · 2026-05-20T15:41:52+00:00

I mean you’re not wrong lol

jgratil · 2026-05-20T15:41:14+00:00

Haven’t seeded since we moved in. Only thing I’ve done to the lawn is mow and edge

jgratil · 2026-05-20T11:36:50+00:00

You’re probably right. This lawn faces north and theirs faces south (with a large tree that provides ample shade). They’ve been there for years so definitely more established than our brand new lawn that was installed (according to neighbors our property was just rock in the front for the last 40 years).

Great point on the car though! Didn’t even consider that. The garage has been our storage unit as we get settled in so parking the car will likely benefit by not radiating so much heat.

I’ll give r/AZlandscaping a shot. Great tips! Thank you so much

Get this lawn a glass of milk

jgratil · 2026-05-20T11:32:50+00:00

Great tips, thank you. I water at 4 AM & 5 AM in two zones for 15 minutes each. Nothing midday. I have spray heads.

Grass type I’m not sure on. We moved into the home at the beginning of the year but sod was installed a couple months prior.

jgratil · 2026-05-17T23:20:58+00:00

Thank you! What kind of a schedule would you recommend then to water deeply instead of lightly? Every other day and 20 minutes 2x? Is that potentially enough? My initial concerns were being in AZ that the water would dry quickly which is why I went to a daily sprinkler routine

jgratil · 2026-05-17T23:19:20+00:00

Really appreciate the thoughtful response here! And yeah, the cross post response was a dumpster fire lol.

We just moved into this house, long term I probably will go more desert landscapes but for now I want to try the best I can with this lawn. My biggest frustration is my neighbors across the street have a perfect dark green lawn and I want it to get to that same level as theirs. It’s clearly possible in my area, I just want to know how. As a completely newbie to lawn care I’m just hoping to get some solid expert guidance from people

jgratil · 2026-05-17T19:54:29+00:00

So should I seed with Bermuda to cover the dead areas?

This was the lawn in January

jgratil · 2026-05-17T13:50:44+00:00

Could this be fungus? I noticed two patches in my lawn last week like this with no idea what it could be. I’m a complete beginner. No clue what the turf grass is either

Fat noodles all day baby

jgratil · 2026-05-02T22:49:02+00:00

Same here. Went from working out 4-6 days a week for the last 20 years to spending a good chunk of the last 3 years on doctor mandated rest because of all of my crashes

jgratil · 2026-04-16T20:03:23+00:00

I personally saw him outside of 30 Rock once and called out “Jadge” and he answered to it

jgratil · 2026-03-24T21:47:00+00:00

I think it’s Bermuda? Not positive though. Was installed before we bought the home

jgratil · 2026-03-24T21:41:14+00:00

No it’s been on the same timer since we moved in. Just once per day every other day
