A Dad's Topic of Discussion: Lawncare


Dad

Recommended Posts

Greetings children!  As a father, it is extremely important that I have my lawn maintained to look prim and proper, and better than Dinkle--err the average home's lawn!  Tell me kids, how often do you prune your gardens, mow your lawn, and edge your grass?  Do you do the work alone?  Do you have a lawncare buddy!  Oooooooohoooo I love lawncare!  Discuss!

It's mostly my dad who does the lawn work (which is pretty much cutting the grass/hedges in the back of the house). Sometimes I help if I'm not busy with stuff; mostly cutting grass on the other side of house. (I have a long scythe [kinda looks like a Japanese naginata, but blade is shorter] that gets used for it, because the weed whacker is heavy and there's only one in the house anyway).

 

As for how often, it's been somewhat erratic because of the existence of a very annoying dog on the other side of the fence (pokes its nose through fence cracks very frequently). At best, probably every 4-6 weeks.

You sound like the ideal child.  Obedient, intelligent, and I doubt you wear silly pink hats.  Using scythes to do lawn work?  Genius!

Every weekends, I'm doing it by myself.

 

Though, I really care more about my flower garden compared to my lawn.

Because of my location, I have to mow the lawn about every 2 weeks. I like to alternate between a mulching mower and a mower with a bag. After I cut it, I weed eat it then cut on the sprinkler during the evening so that it can stay green. I also have a small garden that I tend to.

My father takes good care of our lawn.  It's greener than everyone else's.

 

It helps to use a mulching mower instead of one with a bag. 

 

The grass is always greener!  When you care.

A healthy flower, every hour.  Show those green thumbs, you have the power!

Ooohooo, tactical decision making!  Well done!  You make me proud.
