I do a fair sized driveway, 160ft, and all I do is blow it on the grass either sided with a br600 back pack blower and mulch the leaves with a John Deere mulcher walk behind. Takes about 1 1/2hrs. There is no right way or wrong way in gardening so long as the job gets done and the customers happy. If a gardener wants to get down on all fours and pick up the leaves from the driveway then sort them out into colours, then fine. I always try to take nothing away from jobs. Some customers have been encouraged to get a leaf mould bin going. But they're few and far between. Great vid mate. Summers not long to go now!
@bobbelsekwol thanks for the detailed comment 👍 yes, we all have our own way and often depending on the tools on hand. This place is a farm, so we don't take anything away, fortunately. I don't think there are many more businesses as subjective as gardening. Hope you have a great weekend, mate 👍
I’ve found our Stihl blower is very underpowered with leaves on wet grass whereas our Hyundai backpack blower is a beast and can send the leaves for miles. Saying that I prefer the hand held Stihl as it gives a lot more control around corners/obstacles. Especially in the small residential gardens. Backpack blowers tend to be a lot noisier as well.
Hi have you had any ignition coil problems with your Echo blowers? My last one needed 4 new ones over its life, but apart from that it was superb. Ive got the Bg 86 now and although it has some good points it sounds awful. Like a bag of spanners i reckon I'll only get a few years from it.
Nice job boys … very tidy work Sometimes you need to get that rake out !! I used to buy rakes and lifters off the Nottingham Rake company .. don’t think he is trading anymore. Drew in South Belfast .
