First Time Learning How to Edge a Lawn with a String Trimmer and Edger 

I thought she did a pretty good job for a first time ever to use a string trimmer. Thanks for watching the video. Good to hear from you

Jason is quite the comedian!

😬 “it’ll grow back” That’s what my rookie barber 💈 said to me

The "please don't be mad" got me. Then the response of "it'll grow back" was the shedding of a few tears. But she did a really good job for her first time. She may feel confident to help you in the future.

😂🤣😂

You are so welcome!

Even tougher - you know she was thinking the night before, "I'm going to be immortalized on camera" and shaved her legs the night before, so I'm sure her legs were a bit more tender than normal. :0)

I dont wear clothes when i trim

If you are edging with a trimmer you will go through a lot of string.

Thanks for watching. Thank you also for subscribing

@@lawncarelife Hey - what type of ear protection do you use? Thanks.

I just buy foam earplugs

London Eaves echo cross fire. here we have used it for a few years and it has outdone any other string we have tried ,including other echo types, it’s a cross type shape and has 8 cutting edges.

I have a curved shaft trimmer and what I noticed when your wife trimmed is that she was having the same challenge as me in controlling the drift into the yard as I walk. When Jason trims, the head control is spot on. For the weekender, the control is a little elusive. But, I want a straight shaft machine!

Some people tell me that when I tap it on the concrete then I'm tearing up the head.

There is nothing in the head to actually tear up. Through normal use it will round off and you will eventually wear out the bottom. It should last you the season and then some. Unless you are weed wacking rip rap. The concrete wont hurt it any.

Lawn Care Life I agree I learned the hard way . I alway tap on the grass now.

Thank you! I cringed every time he did that!

@@stendecstretcher4983 you do know that those heads are meant to be replaced right? Any landscaping company that's doing that in my lawn would be terminated on the spot.

Good point. The first patch of grass was Zoysia. The second patch of grass was Bermuda which grows extremely fast. I guess I should have clarified on the video

@@lawncarelife :0) I was just poking fun at you. I've seen enough of your videos to know you definitely know what you're talking about so I knew it wasn't intentional. One of your videos is a part of the reason I went with Zoysia in my front lawn. You were one of several lawn care professionals and golf course managers that said you either had Zoysia for your lawn, or you wish you had the conditions to grow Zoysia for your lawn, and that if the conditions are right, it's probably the best turf available. I planted too late last year but I had 100% bare soil so I went ahead and seeded with Zenith Zoysia. A lot of bare spots that I thought were dead because the lawn wasn't established enough last fall still ended up recovering and most of my lawn has filled in very nicely. My lawn was too immature for any pre-emergence herbicides so I still have a lot of cool season weeds that are pretty much dead, and some warm season weeds trying to fill in, although much fewer than the cool season since the Zoysia has filled in and thickened up and claimed most of the spaces where the cool season weeds were. I have a fair amount of wood sorrel, clover, purselane (?) and sedge to contend with as well as some crabgrass, but I have 2, 4D, Quinclorac, Dicamba and Sulfentrazone which should take care of 95% of my weeds and provide a double whammy on some weeds. You probably know this but I was watching another lawn care professional (The Grass Factor I think?) and he was listing a report from a university stating that going from 1.5 to 2.5 modes of application on a weed produced something like 85 to 95 times more effective weed killing. Like I said, you probably knew that, but if not, it may benefit your business. How you apply 1/2 a MOA is beyond me, but I'm sure it makes more sense to you. Any weeds still left in my lawn I can hit with gloves, sponge and glyphosate on my lunch break day by day wiping the taller stuff after I stop watering the new seed daily. So thanks for the great information and being a part of my decision to go with Zoysia and have a nice lawn. It's a fair amount of work to get it established and moving, but Zoysia is well worth the work. I still need to do some top dressing, but I did enough work with the drag mat when I had bare soil that I can mow at about 1.5 inches with a rotary mower without scalping, so most of my top dressing is to satisfy my OCD nature.

Men's hips will go up and down, women's go side to side when they walk. For the most part.

And she should of walked backwards it’s easier to hold a straight line.
