    Thanks for taking us through how you go about trimming the lawn! I’ve been doing it for 50 years and learned a few thing!❤

    I have to chuckle: I live at the opposite end of the world, in Canada 🇨🇦, and I don’t have a lawn. Having said that, I’ve watched your channel for years. You have a lovely, warm personality, Sean. I enjoy hearing about the people you’re helping and watching you create order in the yards. I also love the items you find in the thick grass. I recall one yard was like a magician’s hat: a table, a chair, another chair, 18 wheels for car and trailer…My favourite had to be when you uncovered a frying pan in someone’s grass 🤔🤗

    I don’t blame you for choosing your back over extra trimmer line. I always had trouble finding a trimmer short enough. So I had to hold it at an awkward angle and in no time my arms were aching. I can’t imagine having to do that every day.
    The yard looked beautiful! Thank you for donating part of it.❤️🤗🐝

    Oh that dog was so cute popping his /her head up over the fence to get a glimpse of your fine yard work. lol. You’re really good at edging. Looked like a beautiful day with a tidy yard 🇺🇸❤️

    @Dreamworld986 6 месяцев назад +4

    I watch several mowing channels but your attention to detail is the best. Per the comment below I see the same thing or they cut very tall grass and leave it on the lawn and think mowing over it several times will take care of it. It seems too many have not checked into getting rid of green waste. Just dump at the back of the yard or leave it where it is. If your going to do a professional job than find a place to take the green waste. Most disposal companies have that service. Great job as always Sean.

    • @allanmowz
      @allanmowz 6 месяцев назад +1

      I always suggest they talk to local farmers. I have a giant hole in the ground from one of them for grass.

  • @CantankerousDave
    @CantankerousDave 6 месяцев назад +5

    I don’t remember any of the other lawn channels I watch actually explaining how and why they hold the trimmer the way they do.

  • @anncromarty2590
    @anncromarty2590 6 месяцев назад +95

    I love that you don't pile up all the edging onto the lawn, but rather pick them up. It drives me nuts when I see other channels throwing chunks of mud and grass onto the lawn and then trying to mow over it.

    • @alexisgrunden1556
      @alexisgrunden1556 6 месяцев назад +5

      If it's diced up fine enough, I can let that slide; if it's already chopped fine, it washes down the grass length with the next rain or watering, and composts much easier. Big pieces don't break down so well, though, and a few types of grass resist composting, so they need collecting.

    The people who say that the trimmer head is too close to the ground may not be as tall as you, Sean. I'm 178cm woman and I find the way you hold it quite comfortable and also find that a harness is good too. I have learnt a lot of techniques since watching your channel.

    For those of us without much lawn to edge, particularly if you haven't much storage for lawn equipment, an edging shears in lieu of a whipper snipper is perfect for maintaining an edge!

  • @MariettaFarley

    I'm an outdoors type of person and enjoy landscaping and gardening in my yard. Thanks for the tips, especially in the use of the half-moon edger. It penetrates much deeper than a string trimmer would. Because of that, I think it would create a longer lasting result.
