Had a problem with moss on the front lawn so my dad gave me some stuff to kill it with, and some sort of device to lay the stuff down as I go over the lawn. So anyway since then the stuff has done it's job and killed the moss turning it blackish. The only problem is that apparently I have become massively retarded and wasnt walking in a straight line when I did it so there is thin strips of lighter mossy bits on the lawn in amongst large dark areas where the stuff worked. So long story short it looks really shit. Any advice on how to sort this shit out, or have I ruined the lawn and should just leave it until I go back to uni on Sunday so my dad has to sort it out? The old man did that on mine the other week, scarifying(?) it. Apparently you're not meant to tread on the grass for few days after as it can kill the surrounding grass. The back gardens looking pretty good now, though no sooner have I painted the fences, birds have shit all over it. The woman opposite has loads of bird feeding apparatus and they just come down for their eats and shit all over my fucking fence. Only thing I really need to do now is repaint the decking and it's good to go. It made our lawn look really shit so I probably did it wrong. I made the decision earlier to mow the lawn and that has perhaps made the shitness less obvious. Hopefully over time it will turn back to a normal colour, and then all of my gardening responsibilities will be removed apart from actually mowing the lawn. |

Just dose it up again and it'll be grand. Be sure to take it out on a couple of weeks.... To reveal all the bald patches! |

I was tempted by an artificial lawn. Pricey enough though, so thought I might invest in a shotgun instead.
Then I can shoot the lawn.

Hmmm doing the same thing a couple of weeks later after that thing turned out abit shit isn't probably the best thing to do  I am thinking now that the leaving it for someone else to sort out option will probably be for the best. |

Fucking iPad.
Just sat there admiring the lawn with a can of beer and two squirrels came right in front of me, frolicking for about 5 mins about 2m from me, I fucking love squirrels!

Option B leaving it and doing nothing has worked, now the lawn is a classic grassy green. So pleased that my fuck up can know be ignored, and that the moss is largely gone as well. |

Mines looking good, bit o'water wouldn't go amiss. Will sink in the coming days if it doesn't rain (very therapeutic).
Wire brushed my stepping stones across said green grass the other day, fucked me it did... So much so that I've still got two dirty flags that I couldn't be arsed to do and they look well out of place. I think it'll be a lot easier to just soil the other 13 instead of cleaning the remaining two.

Sprinkled evergreen 4 in 1 the other week, amazing stuff... Thick, green lush, healthy grass....
Where I managed to dose it properly.. Wank everywhere else!
Must try harder; lawn ruined.

Did the lawn Saturday as it was looking like fucking Vietnam. Got caught revving the strimmer in one hand whilst drinking a can sitting down by the good lady.
I fucking hate gardening.

Needs one more trim before spring but it's fucking sodden now weekend looking dry, a quick high level cut should do it. Mines got a couple of bare patches that need sorting out in the spring where the wife and kids have been playing, hit, pick up, hit, pick up, or as they call it, badminton |

Final cut & leaf blowing today but I'll start with yesterday... Wanted go for a bike ride, searched for nice little Knog LED rear light, no sign of rear light. Went to bike shop, purchased need set of LED lights, wank, returned to store and exchanged for better rear LED light. Today, cut lawn, heard loud crunching noise, opened mower to find missing rear LED light |
