  • BOTL UPCOMING MAINTENANCE

    Hi Everyone, as mentioned in my introduction post, BOTL needs quite a bit of updating, patching and whatever else I might come across. Over time BOTL may be unreachable on occasion as I do migrations or updates, etc. Just be patient - we'll be back! I'll generally try to keep these maintenances until later in the evenings.

Since my son was nowhere to be found this afternoon I decide to do some yard work that he never got to. What better time to fire up a smoke. So as I readied the spreader for the first lawn treatment of the year I whipped out the stick.

I examined the cigar and found the construction to be excellent, it perfectly resembled a cigar. The first third was an excellent blend of leather and phosphate, followed by a tinge of coffe/potash. I was surprised by how quickly the blast of nitrogen kicked in as I continued to make 4' passes with my Scott's rotary.

The finish was a mild coffee with a hint of Pendamethalin (the active crabgrass annihilator). I'll definitely try this one again but this time I'll wait until after I've finished the fertilizing!

Hey what did you expect from a noob!

If you do it, it must be safe. I always smoke a stick when i am fertilizing the grass. I'm not worried about the fertilizer itself, I'm worried about blowing myself up due to the nitrogen content.

I smoked one last week. It had been awhile. I had forgotten how good they are. I like the review. It was quite entertaining.

Good review!! I was cracking up - Those have a good nic punch & I probably wouldn't choose that as my yard-gar: sure to leave my head spinning!

I'm not a big fan of the Blue line - Pepper bombs!!! (Hey, to each his own...!)

Thought the lancero is in a different catagory altogether - Those are amazing!

Thanks for the review Bro. I had my first DPG Blue about three weeks ago. I agree with the review except for the fertirizer. I got the exact same experience. Nice to know my palate is developing.
