Okay guys- your mission...I've been trying all morning and have had no luck (and I'm usually really good at finding stuff...)--

I need (want) to find video clips of the SNL 1984 (???) "Tippy Turtle" cartoon shorts. Only three were made from what I understand and I'm pretty sure it was in 1984. Any takers???? I don't necessarily need to be able to download them- links to see them would be fine too

I already checked YouTube for
"Tippy Turtle"
"Tippie Turtle"
"Tippi Turtle"

The only result I got was someone putting their turtle named Tippy into it's new home.

Hey, Tippy Turtle
Coming down the street
Tell us what you're gonna do

First, I'm gonna bother everybody I meet
Then I'm gonna go home and get drunk
Hey Tippy Turtle
Hey, hey Tippy Turtle

I think it's a scam. I went directly to the PayPal site to log in and there was no problem with my account- it was long ago verified. I sent the email to PayPal and asked them about it- I've gotten one like it before- years ago. No recent one as the email implies.

K, as far as the paypal thing goes, we got one like that too, and it is a scam.

I'll see what I can find about Tippy...

I found that archive too and thought it might link to video, but no. My mom sent me an email about how the turtle that is in her yard every year is back and how she named it Tippy after "a cartoon she used to watch when she was 18 years old". I looked it up and found that she was not 18 when it came on (try 30 or 31) and that there were only 3. Must have really stood out to her though. I was hoping to find clips to email to her. There's really not much on it that I have found, but I think- remember the drawings that they used to have to become a children's book illustrator? I think the turtle head they wanted people to draw was Tippy.

Yeah, you're right. If you Google "Draw Tippy" one of the links you get is this. Good memory Kaili!!

How long does fertilizer have to be applied before it can rain so that you would not have to reapply? (Does that make sense? I fertilized --weed and feed-- yesterday and within a few hours it rained and it rained hard.) Should I reapply? TIA!

You do not need to reapply. Didn't you water after applying the fertilizer?

No, I didn't water after. I didn't know you were supposed to. My thumbs are very brown! Thanks ZMOM!

I like to use steer manure. If you don't water after applying, it can burn your plants/grass. Water helps the fertilizer/food seep into the soil.

Julie, you are probably fine with the fertilizer, since you usually want to water that in after application (or get rain).
The weed control usually wants you to water before application (I'm assuming granular weed and feed) and then not to water for 24-48 hours after applying. This allows the weed control to stick to the weeds and get absorbed.

So, you may want to consider additional weed control, but I would not fertilize again for 4-6 weeks.

Thanks Bob, I know the bag said it was preferable to have the lawn wet before application. I often seem to do things backwards!

You're supposed to water before you fertilize (you want the ground moist) and then water again afterwards. That helps the fertilizer to be distributed down to the roots. If you don't, it just sits on top of the ground, and can burn the grass.

Weed control is another story. Usually, you'll do what Bob said (water first, then wait).

FWIW, I used to recommend using one product for one thing (not an all in one product). That way, you have better control and better results. (I have a degree in landscape architecture and turf management.)

Costa, what weed control would you recommend and when should I apply it? (The biggest problem is dandelions.)

You have to be very careful when buying weed & feeds. My DH prefers Scott's brand. So I picked up a huge bag the other day. In small print on the bag it listed the type of grass it should and should not be used on. I didn't read that.

Luckily for us we have Bermuda grass in the front and St. Augistine in the back. So we were able to use it on 1/2 our yard. If he had not read the bag we could have lost most of our grass.

The Scott's brand bags for the different type of grasses looked almost identical. However the instructions were quite different. One said water before applying, the other said water after.
