Thanks Mystyler
I was leaving Bunnings Belmont at somewhere around 3 or 4 that day and turned the radio onto 6pr. They had guys ringing in saying shopping centres are flooding, etc.
I turned left onto Hardey road (facing north west if you don't know the area) and I saw it coming. Raced back home, and got under the carport, shut the gates and it hammered down. Rain coming in pergola sideways whilst I am trying to throw tarps back onto mowers even though they were under cover
Just looked at the video of the Pope and your lawn looks mint. What fertiliser do you use?
This is the stuff I used.
https://www.bunnings.com.au/hortico-8kg-buffalo-lawn-fertiliser_p2962027 They had a pallet of it out at bunnings for $9 per damaged bag. I bought the heaviest bags - about $80 worth and am about 1/3 way through my stinky stash.
They were 15kg before, but only 8kg now and much more expensive
Do not apply in good clothes or when windy
One of these is a must
