Nicely done and explained.

Good job. Will look good in a few weeks. 👍🏽

Take out those dead box hedge plants, they are just in the way. Level up and build it up to the same height.😊

It’s a good shout! Not my lawn unfortunately, but it’s something I’ll be suggesting.

Look forward to seeing the improvement is a month or so.

Like the previous comment has said,you should have taken those dead shrubs out and a dug a circle round the birdbath,make it a feature. It would help drainage and they could either plant it up or put a mulch/decorative stone chip on.

Excellent job, I'm going to be doing this on my daughters back lawn soon as it's really bad with thatch/moss. I'm currently looking at the different compost spreaders, but it looks like the Landzie is favorite. Thoroughly enjoy your videos, very easy to follow with no faffing about, here's hoping for a decent summer, goodness knows we're due one. Best wishes from Northern Ireland 👍

good effort lad

Your neighbours must love you!

Nice one mate,the weather isn't playing very nice here down south lol,still waiting to renovate

I was hoping to get seed down this weekend on the front lawn, but got a lot of wind. Whips up badly from the field in front.

Looking forward to the end results. Using the compost spreader how many square metres would a 50L compost bag cover?

Couldn’t say exactly. But the lawn in this video is roughly 100, maybe a tad less. And I used 5 bags in total.

I would have asked if you could move the green stonehenge to a corner, make life much easier for mowing, great job

The top dressing usually does the trick for the most part. Or you can put a kind of scarecrow up (just a plastic bag on a stick), but some birds take no notice regardless 😅

I assume you do your neighbours lawn in return for content? Nice idea. We have so many birds around us but never had an issue with them eating the seed...until a fat wood pigeon arrived and cleared the entire garden in one day. My dogs performance was disaapointing

Good instructional video. What setting did you have the Scotts spreader? What compost did you use and was there much rubbish in it?

@NoviceGardener

2 ай бұрын

I had it on 18. With the seed being fairly big and now spherical, you’re best going with a higher setting because if the holes are too small on the spreader, it can get blocked easily.

Is there any reason you didn't roll the lawn after seedling, to get good connection between the soil and seed

I’ve never used one when seeding. Once it rains, the top dressing and the loose soil below make decent contact 👍🏻

When using the topsoil spreader how much coverage are you getting out of one bag of soil? I am thinking of getting a spreader, but I only have about 30m2 to cover and not sure how much soil I will need to top dress my seed.

@NoviceGardener

2 ай бұрын

You’d probably get away with 3 bags of top dressing with that size. My back lawn is slightly bigger and I used to use 3 bags to cover about 45sqm.
