Home & Garden Discussions

I use my husband for yard work :) hehehehe Seems to me he works out better than the herd of goats - cheaper to feed too. 

Alright seriously we'll generally fertilize with a weed n feed and that's usually it.  He prefers to use the ones that attach right to your hose.  I will have to buy a new hose this year though as the neightbor got it with the snow blower this winter.  Then it's just a good ole cheap sprinkler and we're good. 

I'd rather not use chemicals, but we have some very invasive plants in the yard. I've been fighting some icky bamboo for 9 yrs now. So, Round Up is my friend. It works well most of the time.

My husband!  He fertilizes the lawn, gets our raised beds ready to plant veggies, and generally deals with the outdoor appearance. 

I've used a Weed Eater riding lawn mower for over 7 years and it's done the job. We've been through several string trimmers--ugh. I tend to avoid using the push mower--I'd rather ride or trim with the trimmer than to push that thing!

We've had lots of invasive plants trying to take over from all sides and I finally resorted to Ortho.

Sorry--posted twice!

Naturally I started another gardening thread before seeing the ones already started. I always do that. Bah.

Check out this thread for a website I found with TONS of garden links:
