Mondo grass-anon here from thread 119. I cinnamon misted the mondo grass regularly and kept the soil pretty dry (watering just enough once every 2 weeks or so). It seemed to slow the pythium splendens but not eradicate it. I have now put the mondo grass outside the window into the plant hospital/mortuary and now we can only wait and see. It will get more sunlight and breeze and since mondo is quite hardy maybe it'll even recover, but I probably won't really know until at least mid spring whether or not any new growth will shoot up.
Anyway, I'm now growing some wheatgrass and barley (probably should have just done this in the first place) because it's nice and green and provides good privacy in the window.
All the growing guides I've found are for people to grow it as catgrass or for wheatgrass juice (gross) but I want to let it fully grow and keep it alive essentially forever. Any tips? Should I trim it regularly? Should I tear out patches once or twice a year a replace with fresh seed/soul? How do I keep the grass alive and healthy in perpetuity?
