ELDERLY CLIENT LOST HER BACKYARD TO BLACKBERRIES!! Stihl FS-240 Brush Cutter
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 31 май 2024
- Around a month ago we had a client reach out to us with a regular request for some blackberry mulching. The unusual part about this job was the size and the area of the blackberries. Due to the owners being unable to maintain the blackberries they spread like rapid fire and pretty soon covered the entire backyard. The blackberries become so overgrown that they covered absolutely anything that was on the ground, including all the materials, rocks, and even other growth.
So we grabbed our Stihl FS-240 brush cutter and went straight to work. With some new Oregon mulching blades, we were able to just power through all of the blackberries in record time and were able to shred the blackberries and free up this homeowner's backyard.

Good thing he had
a Stihl, Great Job
Wow! That's not a back yard. It's a farmlet! Yours was an impressive display of strength and stamina as well as showing the capabilities of the brush cutter. May your business flourish.
Incrediable and amazing work that you did,,,,but this much larger than you think as all this will grow back within no time....
Thank you Carmen! So far it's been about 2 weeks and it hasn't grown much at all. It will be maintained from now on and shouldn't be coming back anytime soon.
Then you cover with water
Cardboard, 3 layers water
Compost, water
Mulch, water
And replant !! Water
Good morning everyone hope you are having a good day greetings from the USA
Thank you Henrietta! Greetings from the PNW!
WOW that yard is huge. And down hill. Great giant tree's. That blade does excellent job hacking up blackberry vines. No wonder the back yard needed rescuing. Nothing could grow under all that mess. Bet it was animal heaven under it. Varmints galore!!
Amazing job on a ton of blackberries. My kids loved to see the before and after at the end!!! Well done.
Thanks Kari! :)
Garentee they will be back next year, but of course not as thick!!
WOW! Just WOW! Awesome job!
Thank you Fran! :)
Lots of jam!!!!!!
Absolutely beautiful job 👏
Thanks Paul! 😁👍
EL MEJOR TRABAJADOR EN TANTOS AÑOS USANDO UN TRIMMER LO ES GOLOVIN.
EXCELENTE MANTENIMIENTO EN ESE PATIO TRASERO Y DELANTERO.
Thank you for your hard work there. God bless you.
Thank you Dyana! God bless you too!
You sure pick the bramble yards, lordy what a mess. I keep forgetting just how invasive those things are.... man they take over a area very... very fast. NICE TIDY UP. 👌 👏 😍
You know. I'm really anti chemical sprays, but this needs a BLAST of something to stop the brambles. Ughhh so much work
Thanks, Dana! I love doing these, they are just so satisfying!
I agree, there should be some kind of herbicide for this area!
That was an epic clean up to undertake on your own , well done
It was a little rough on the hills, but I really enjoyed it! Thanks Robert
My goodness!! What an undertaking. Good on you. Your strength and endurance are remarkable. The muscles in your arms must be something to behold. God bless.
Thanks! It does take a lot of endurance and the muscles definitely feel it😅 God bless!
Well done,that place now looks heaps better, hardwork on your part,but,a very happy client...thank u God bless you..
Thank you Jan! :)

@@cheryleking6543 Thank you for subscribing! I appreciate it! Greetings from the top of the world😅
What a difference! Great job as always!
Thanks Carol! 😁👍
Comment by Carmencita: Good Job!! I guess he did not have to worry about snakes.
U are a hard working ma. Watching u working my hands were painful. Good lucky friend
Job well done 👍
Thank you Dee!
Amazing. Cant wait for part two.
Awesome job mate, that was epic, and so enjoyable to see you battle with the blackberry, and you won,
Thank you Christina!
You mustve been exhausted ...thats incredible work
Oh it was a very exhausting job, I am surprised that I was able to finish it as fast as I did. New blades make things a lot easier!
You are a diligent worker!
wow, the yard is so steep, cannot use any mower, what a great job
Thanks Colleen! It's a very odd yard for sure, too bad the original builders didn't install some retaining walls or anything of the sort.
You are totally AMAZING!!!
Thank you Mary! I appreciate it😁
Awesome. I bought a commercial Lawn Boy (2 cyl.), commercial, self-propelled mower for this type of mowing and still have it. You didn't have to worry about engine lubrication on the slopes since the oil was in the gas. It would have been great for the final touch on this yard after your brush cutting. Thank you for sharing.
Thats a very interesting mower, is it meant to mulch up thicker stuff? Thanks Daniel!
@@golovinpropertyservices Nope. It's a regular gas motor (albeit it is the commercial version). The Oregon blade you're using is doing a great job. I've ordered one for some of the work I have to do.

OMG 1 happy client indeed, Canada
Absolutely!
Must have been a tiring but satisfying job
Hi your new subscriber from the Philippines it's really a great effort to clean that backyard I really appreciate what your doing.God bless you and be healthy.
Hi Sebia! Thank you for subscribing, God bless you too!
That was amazing work!!
Thank you Irma! :)
EXTRAORDINARY.. jeez what a wonderful job. Bloody good on you. I hope the property got the final finish and full tidy.
Thanks! The property has had lots of work and there will be some other work done in the future as well.
The fact that you did all that with a Weed eater is crazy stihl should sponsor you to show the quality of their tools good work my brother.
I would take a sponsorship from Stihl😅 but they haven’t reached out yet.
Вот это джунгли попались мужику!
Я таких ещё не видела! Интересно, сколько уйдёт бензина , чтобы такую территорию привести в порядок!
Удачи и здоровья! Смотрю вас с Украины!
Это настоящие джунгли с ежевики) Там примерно вышел 1.5 литра бензина.
Спасибо вам! Пусть вас Господь благословит и хранит!!
Yes Congratulation
Thank you Dilsa!
Wow this reminds me of a Disney movie i watched when i was a kid. Sleeping beauty better be at the end of this lot. Holy Blackberry bushes batman. Nice job man you deserve a medal for taking that on.
I'm not surprised the battery died ..... Seemed never ending. He made short work ok f it tho. Man and machine in harmony. Brilliant. 👌👏👏👏
sthil great job as always😮
Absolutely! 😁👍
I love weed whacker power transformations.
It would be nice to see a gardner finish the job after the rescue.
I do as well!
What a jungle, you did well to tame it
Thanks Carol!
Nice job. New subscriber from Clearwater, FL. ❤️🙏❤️
Amazing cleanup! 🤗❤👍
Thanks Mary!
wow! what an awesome job.
Thank you Darlene! :)
Incredible
I agree!
Very skill work
Thank you!
I was waiting to see what the orange thing was also ,I know your arms have to hurt and be sore .terrific job you did all by yourself .a hard worker you are .enjoyed watching .I love picking blackberries for a cobbler .never saw so many in one spot .what a mess .
There were a lot of interesting items hidden in these blackberries, lots of stories!
Clearance Sale; EVERYTHING MUST GO!
Everything went! :)
Including Plenty ! Of BlackBerry ! Vines !! Cut into Sticks ! Sale ! Now on !
You got lost in the matrix. 😃😃 That is great job.
Good thing I was able to get out😅 Thanks James! 😁👍
wow wow what a job!! Makes me wonder how many men and days that would have taken without power equipment!!
It would have been an absolutely long time😅
Omg …. That was an almost complete takeover by the blackberries. David, even before the battery died, that job must have taken most of the day to do. In some parts, the plants towered over you! Would a mulching mower be used afterwards? An awful lot of sticks covering the yard….Nice work, take care❣️
Thanks Lina! Unfortunately, a mulching mower wouldn't be a good idea here. The terrain is just so uneven and steep that there really are no options apart from a handheld piece of equipment for the general area.
@@golovinpropertyservices 一
That was a petrol brush cutter. Yes it was well overgrown and cleared by a petrol brush cutter. Because no Battery operated piece of shit. Would not have made the slightest dent in that. All I heard was the sound of a two stroke petrol brush cutter. precisely what battery has died, here. Because no battery operated machine would have made any kind of dent in that
Wow ,Huge job, Well Done
Thank you George!
I'm like this 😮😯😲😕😵
When your mom makes you eat a plate of OATMEAL.
And you feel like it's never going to finish.
That was a tremendous workout.
Greetings from Puerto Rico 🇵🇷
It sure was! Thanks Eva!😁👍
Beau travail 🎉
A heck of a lot of long hard work. However, how are they going to keep it from instantly starting to grow back? Nice work Thumbs Up!
Thanks Gary! It's actually been about 3 weeks and there has been no visible growth, right now we are in the middle of a drought and not much of anything is growing. Hopefully, they will dry out, but some will come back and that can be taken care of very quickly.

You did an amazing job with a brush cutter.
Thank you PJ!
Great job
Thanks Linda!
WOW 😅
It sure was! :)
What a shame you didn’t have a partner with you who could have helped! Such a lot of work with just one weed whacker!!
Well done!
I've never seen blackberries so big. You'd think there would be skin, pulp and juice all over the place. Plus you can see the juice spray when they burst but it doesn't look like it's getting on her at all.
It definitely was a serious infestation, good thing she didn’t wait any longer.
❤️❤️❤️
😁👍
I would have used a trimmer to cut all of that! But you did a great job! 😊
Thanks Tod!
Great Job!!! How many hours. Or days did it take you? I bet your whole body was sore. You are a very hard worker. Thank you for doing such a Great Work on this.
Thanks Susan! It was about 6 hours of work. I sure was!
my word, you have such stamina and strength
I don't have anytime for the gym anymore with jobs like these 😅
Hope she has someone to help her maintain that massive hill.
She sure does!
Great job!! That place needed some goats
It needed a lot :)
This is a one man Tornado.
Destroying all the blackberries around!
Wow!!! You must have gotten some pretty bad cuts from those blackberry briars too. I wouldn’t wish that job on anyone.
I try to stay away from the briars and let the brush cutter do the work. These are very satisfying jobs! :)
@@golovinpropertyservices You were Wearing Gloves !?? Weren't you !
You would think your neighbors would chip in and help I would have I love yard work it doesn't take much to get started just jump in and go for it
Even if you were Disabled !??
Dude you slayed the blue dragon!
It had a lot of thorns😅
I'd be curious to know how many years of growth that was?
I wonder how many days a few goats would have taken to enjoy that delicious meal?
Instead of herbicide get the neighbors to recycle all theirs home delivery cardboard boxes by sheet mulching 8 to 10 inches of cardboard. Then get some free wood chips from a tree service.
Whats amazing to me is you didnt find any bees!!
And I am very glad I didn’t! Would have been a very bad day😅
Was that done in one day? If so, your a fast hard worker.
Assuming you don't actually work this fast, how long did it really take to do the job?
She should of had u to make a maze throughout the backyard and charged people 💰 to go through it.
Someone probably would have sued from getting scratches from the blackberries 😅
I wonder what's killing their trees. Saw a lot of stumps. And some of those tall ones didn't look healthy. But you did a really good job 😊
Wow! I don't know how you stuck that job out! Well done! How long did that take?
Wow that was an incredible amount of work! You did brilliantly! Blackberry is a nightmare and you have made a huge difference. Its a shame it will grow back. Is there a way to stop it now that its been taken down?
Thanks Lulu! The best way is continues maintenance, this specific client has talked about getting a herbicide treatment for her backyard. That would be one of the most effective ways apart from manual removal.
@@golovinpropertyservices Seems like spraying the new shoots is the only way and it will have to be systemic I guess? At least its all been levelled now because it would be a heck of a mess to try to spray it when its grown like it was. I am so impressed by what you did. Some of it was much taller than you! You aren't afraid of hard work. Go well.
@@lulunz6809 Thats exactly the way to go, if you wait for the new shoots it will tell you exactly where you need to spray and it will also save you time and money. Spraying what was there before would have just been a waste of time. We will see what happens here in the next couple of weeks.
i would like to see the cutter/blade that you use...?
Crikey how big is the backyard and how did she let it get that way
It happens a lot actually, these blackberries can just grow absolutely wild if they aren't dealt with. A lot of the stuff that I was doing on top of the hill was fresh, probably only a few months old.
I can see why, there is no way anyone could cut the grass on a slope that steep and the bad thing about this is, even if you cut the Blackberries they come right back, which is what Nature intended them to do.
I bet your arms hurt after doing that. Great job!
They were a little sore. Thanks Sonya!
Can you tell me how many of the Oregon blades you went through for the job once they got duller from hitting dirt, etc. ??? Thanks. Obviously, you can sharpen them after, but I have an area of similar length & width/height on Whidbey Island I need to deal with. The main section is along about 250 of vinyl fencing, as the neighbor has let it grow way up & over the fence, back & forth. It started on our side, though, long before we bought the property... Himalayan Blackberries...
Hey Barry, I only used 2 Oregon blades. I could have just used 1, but I noticed a huge difference once the blade got dull. Dirt won’t do much damage too it. You have to watch out for rocks and always be careful to not rush hitting the ground with it. It’s best to do this on a sunny day and start with an area that has more light. That way you can see any objects that can kill the blade.
Hello from Marysville!
Nice 👍
Thanks! 👍
Do you really think that just cutting it back will stop it, just a little bit,then it comes back. It has be killed or dug up. But GOD bless your intentions, thank you for helping her.
i have a silly question , do goats eat those plants and if so could you rent some to clean it up?
Goats sure do eat stuff like this, it just wouldn't take them 5-8 hours. They would probably do this in a week or a little longer going at it full time.
Not to Mention ! You having to Pick.it up !. Afterwards !.
So how many Acres was all.of this !? Then !
This was about .35 acres of backyard.
which type of blade is used? i also have same situation in my farm which i want to clean. pls advise type of blade used
Mulching Blade For Brush Cutter - amzn.to/3Rpnr3z
Man, you could have hidden bodies in that stuff & they never would have been found. That’s a lot of work & on a slope no less! If I was that weed eater, I would never want to work again!! 😂😂😂 I was waiting to see what the orange thing was & you skipped to another spot!
I've been known to push my equipment pretty hard, it's a good thing I'm always looking out for something new 😅
Hi :) what blade do you used ?
Hi, this is the Oregon mulching blade. I have a link in the description where you can buy it.
Used brushcutter for sale only used once!
Only used once, very minimal wear. Practically brand new! 😉
They will just grow back in spring
With the proper measures they can be contained.

Thanks for subbing!
What Earmuff you using?
These are “ranger foldable ear muffs”
What country is this?
USA, in the Pacific Northwest!
You forgot to take all the cuttings away. Another slash and run job.
They weren’t forgotten. It was discussed that they would stay. Sort of like when you mulch a lawn.
Herculean job! How did your arms survive? I bet you couldn’t brush your teeth for a week! Lol
That is the green Gym, I have 6 acres of woodland that has lost loads of diseased trees and the brambles took over during lockdown and grew 6 foot high.
Well, I try to get enough rest and not have these jobs lined up close together😅 normally it’s the back that feels it more than the arms
круто
Спасибо!
