OT - Weekend work
Well, I stained the Arbor/Swing this weekend. What a pain in the ass and with me on a ladder, it almost came to a literal pain. But it got done and the plants were put it. It looks great and I got major points from my wife for building it.

It's an all in 1 deal. It's a product called Cetol, a semi transparant stain/sealer. One coat stuff, the same I used on the deck and fence. It's not cheap though at $30 a gallon.

It's worth it Tony. You won't have to touch your deck again for 4-5 years after using it.
Make sure you pressure wash your deck before restaining it.

LMAO Fuck off Matt! Actually, when I'm swinging on it, I do think about the DG events, how can you not?
Worm, as for grass food, I recommend Chemlawn. They come out 6 times a year and treat it. But this spring it's rained a record amount here in Michigan, 8.47 inches in May. So the grass would be green no matter what I did.
