You only post to one "serious" NG? Which is that? What is this then?

I wouldn't call it a 'serious' ng (at least it's no more serious than this
one given that it similalry involves people with a passion for their
pastime), but it's the only one where the other posters like to know a name.
It's a craft based group and the same people have been posting there since
the year dot so know each other well. Most ngs have the sort of environment
where posters don't give a rat's posterior what a person is called.

yes this is true.
Annual rye is used with a Bermuda lawn to give a green look thru
winter.
Bermuda is used in Hot summer areas, but it goes brown and dormant
over winter. AnnRye is seeded in early fall and is green over winter
until
hot weather arrives, then it dies. It is seeded right into the
bermuda.
So if you seeded it in June, there wasn't much time left for a cool
weather
grass to live.
