[LargeFormat] Joy Abounding

[Jim Hemenway]

I'm encouraging the moss...

Believe it or not, I was told a couple of years ago, by a women I 
thought was quite mad, that a nice spray of buttermilk over the moss 
really accelerates it's growth.

She was right and I've cut down my mowing so far by about 60%.
