How much is too much DD? Or does it not matter now?

Glad I didn't water my lawns this week as they're turning into a jungle in front of me already!

The paddocks can handle any amount but we do like it slow and steady so it can soak in and not run off. If it comes down too hard it can wash topsoil away. We haven’t had any rain like that in the system yet thank goodness. Gone past 60mm now

I've had the sliding doors open today while watching a plethora of sport and swear I've seen the grass grow by at least 3 inches! The rain has hardly stopped!

Not a bad predicament though, the rain has been great for my lawn! Means I don't have to use my sprinklers.

I went for a 3km jog yesterday after work and sweated for half an hour after I had finished. Ended up having to have a cold water shower for it to stop as I was heading out.

Yeah I'll be having a cold shower when/if ai get home from the pub.
Almost feeling normal again now after a chicken schnitzel and 3 beers.
I don't seem to lose much weight on these walks for some reason. :lol:
