overview for Pickle

We've recently purchased our first house and the yard work is super time consuming! With .5 acres just mowing alone takes like 2 hours with my push mower due to all the trees and hills in the yard. I would like to have a pollinator friendly yard while also not having to spend so much time mowing. Using less gas in general would also be neat.

What I am thinking of doing is prior to first snow fall, over-seed with wildflowers from American Medows for most of the yard, and then in areas with some foot traffic, plant a mixture of clover and native grasses and then only worry about mowing in that area periodically.

Has anybody else ever over seeded with wildflowers? A lot of stuff I see posted here (and formerly on reddit) seem to be a bunch of elegant but hard and time consuming work like ripping up the yard, putting cardboard and mulch down, and then planting over that. However, I don't really have the time and money to do all that 🙁. Would I have desirable results with just over-seeding?

Hey now, don't forget your private jet so you have something to do errands in.

You can buy condos though? The current problem in my area is there are TONS of (empty) luxury apartments going up, but for every 50 rental units only one is only one unit for sale.

But yeah I have a friend in downtown Twin Cities MN who owns his condo. Mortgage is like $2.5k and that includes utilities except for the Internet. I think he's made around $75k in equity already.

I even tried being a good little product and subjected myself to using the official reddit app.

Absolute worst experience with an app I've ever had. Honestly couldn't even use reddit now even if I wanted to.

As someone who hasn't ever really gotten into cRPGs before, how is the game? Is it hard to get into/is there a big learning curve to this game?

I like the web app more. by Pickle_Jr in c/memes@lemmy.ml

I don't understand the people hating on Sync just as much as I don't understand the people hating posts criticizing sync.

It's an app. Let people use what they want to use lmao. Growth for Lemmy is a good thing regardless
