Landscaping

Finally decided to move the trailers and jet ski and bring the load to its destination. I didn’t want to chance cracking my slate walkway or wreck the lawn, but for my back’s sake I had too.View attachment 61790View attachment 61791

cracked slate can be replaced, lawn can be corrected, screwed up back can't...

Good decision.

Yeah but two truckloads too late ?

Just had the landscaper here getting prices on having mulch beds put under all the bushes out front will look better than trying to grow grass under them

It’s your yard and your taste to what you use. But me personally, the metal lasts forever, isn’t as noticeable. Edging is not what you want to stand out in the landscape. Rubber looks cheap ?
Just my opinion but thought you would like it.

Kept the metal, I started skimming some of the grass off yesterday. This morning was concentrated on more of the garage.

Slate's usually greyish with a dull finish.

My scorched-earth war on dandelions got a little too literal.

Are there any good options besides hand to hand? A.K.A. individual removal.

Thank you. I will definitely give that a try.

I've been spot spraying them, but that leaves a dead spot in the lawn and another dandelion seed will always find its way there before the grass recovers.

Finally got a superb result with this stuff, which covers all weeds and a crabgrass pre-emergent, along with fertilizer. I only give my lawn 1 shot, but most years I put this down after a majority of the dandelions have flowered. This year I got it down when they had emerged, but few, if any flowered.

Knocked the crap out of them and haven't seen any "cotton balls" and any flowers are seriously damaged, major win for the home team. I'm from the 1 application per year school of fertilizing, so it's nice when 1 shot covers the whole gamut...
