Well, I think the sad fact is I'll never have grass. We seeded last fall but the winter was so open and the wind so wild and we flooded from the barn mishap, so, we reseeded last week , then it snowed and that was great, but, the wind again and I can't keep the ground damp for the seed to germinate because we have the water pressure of the squirt gun, a really really small squirt gun, so now I'm trying to think of alternatives for grass. Anyone got any good ideas??

Sod? Just a thought ... it may cost a little more in the short run - but at least you won't have anymore fly away!

I've heard if you cover your seeded area with lots of peat moss or some people have used LOTS of shredded paper and keep it wet/damp all the time it lets the seed start to grow before it gets blown away or eaten by the birds. When we planted our back yard we did little sections at a time, made it easier to keep watered. Just a thought? Hope you find a way to make it work.
