I'll never understand folks using their yards to dump rubbish. It makes no sense. Good job guys.

Well done!!! **edit** Tim, why is kiuku grass so popular if it's so wretched like that? Those runners are insane. Surprised that Buffalo or Rye isn't used more often. Kiuku just seems like such a bad choice for a lawn. 🤔🤷‍♀️

I have a friend in the USA that used it on a steep hillside to help with erosion. It worked for that application. But NOT for a lawn. That's crazy.

When I saw it was Carthic that was going to help, I did not know how he would do since he is used to manicuring lawns and that is not even close tp an option with the awns you do on here, but he was a champ. I would hate to see the inside of the house after seeing the outside (glimpses thru doors seems to indicate that it is just as bad - if not worse - inside). You are brave men to take that on.

Anyone who comes and does a heavy cleanup like that for free is amazing- not obligated to have to clean up the rest of the stuff - remember they are helping clearing the overgrown vegetation out for free - not many get anything for free these days- I know 😔 - 71 yo female that recently had to pay Au $ 1500 to clear my property that wasn’t even a 1/4 as big but I did have some high shrubs cut down and some on Body Corp area outside my property as management wouldn’t address it even though it affected my property 😤 - 5 hours work 😞

@AnitaSouthall 2 года назад

Doesn't seem too much, including factors such as qualified staff, fuel ⛽ prices, for travel and equipment, rubbish removal, maintenance on equipment. I used to run a garden business and I couldn't make money at the prices I used to charge for low income folks. Professional rates as at 2022 should be $75-$100 per hour for basic level services. I used to charge $15-20, only 15 years ago. A plumber currently is a $100 call out fee just for $30 minutes only. Prices and money are relative to your budget and cash flow. 💸 💰

@mariagrant2072 2 года назад

@@AnitaSouthall - I agree but 1/3rd of my clean up was on Body Corporate gardens as it was affecting my property, and it was a cash deal as I’m a Pensioner - it could have cost me a lot more - the Body Corporate over growth has damaged my fencing in places - the By Laws state we have to pay 50/50, so now I’m up for $1530 for my share of the fence replacement now - so as a Pensioner, total bill to get my stuff sorted is $3030 😔

@omaroliblish 2 года назад

I'm glad your detail-minded friend was willing to come help. Already you are refinding landscaping features. ( Have been watching the "runner" problem for a while. So far, what might help would possibly be "dethatching machines", which seem to work by using a bunch of small blades/knives to cut things up. Maybe some are available for rental, once basic mowing height is re-established.) With the front bed dimensions re-appearing, along the house, I was comparing the shrub diameter...they sure are past bounds at this point. At 12:30, between the two of you you restored order in that one small side overgrown section. Quite an accomplishment. When that grass gets out-of-hand it is something. With all the rain you had for months, I'll bet some people never got a real change to mow. I remember Sean cutting something like five levels of mowing, criss-crossing on bad lawns. As many tough places you've included us on, that one is a workout. (One good thing, you have a patch cleared for the small dog to be able to get around in...) And we now have a "new standard" we can agree on, a "brown lawn is a good lawn" after disaster mowing.

@almosthome5971 2 года назад

They need to invent a regular push mower with an upturned rake welded onto the front, to lift that grass before it cuts. That's alot of work. Bad grass. Nice job!

@allanmck 2 года назад

Actually a mower is supposed to raise the grass by air force as the blades swirl over the top of it lifting it to be cut evenly. Kikuyu of course is having none of that and will stubornly lay there in defiance (it's heavier than other grasses). But I like your thinking on a practical solution. It'd have to be some sort of cutter as a rake would jam in seconds. You'd just lock the front of the mower into a bind even if it was self propelled. I regularly crash my mower to a dead stop by hitting a small bump and launching into a thick patch of kikuyu just on 3 weekly cuts. The engine stops spinning instantly it's that strong! (Tip: don't do that. It's really bad for the crank shaft.)
