Love seeing how much comes out, can almost feel that lawn having a good strrreeeetccch with all that removed!!! Glad to see you over covid, stay safe & enjoy your BH weekend
Good job Lee. Scarifying is such a crucial job at lawn renovation. If you don’t get rid of all that crappy buildup you just leave a haven for disease, moisture, moss & insects. One job in the process mate but your all over it. #justaskLee 👍🏻🍻🇦🇺😎🏝⛳️
. I have 2 in 1 cobra electric scarifier. I scarifeid early March and overseeded but not great results. Did it again yesterday and had to overssed again. Hope it turns out this time but great to see you using the 2 in 1 which is practical and affordable. I think the scaifier attachment is more aggressive than the power rake. I noticed on your video the atttachment which you used on the first garden is the scarifier as I think you had changed over to the power rake for the second job. Well done Lee.
I bought one of these based on your ‘vid’ like you I hated humping my main unit in and out and up and stairs. I found it brilliant and if I had to get a new one (which I don’t think will be the case) I would. Thanks for the heads up 👍 Michael The Really Useful Gardening Company (Based in Essex)
So everything that came out, is that all moss? Incredible that mountain you created from what the scarifier got out. My lawn is getting thin and blotchy. I need to start fertilizing more or something.
Just wondering if this lawn problem is only in G.B or England asI havent seen it on any other videos. You do an excellent job Lee. From Queensland Australia 🐨
Lee, I would have liked to listen to you, but it was difficult with the sound so low! Did you not notice that? It has been a low sound on other videos recently, too. Otherwise, appreciate your content!
Hello Lee. I ordered a yellow broom plant such as the one in your video.. After the fact I see they are considered an invasive species in multiple U.S. states. Do I need to keep it in a pot? Do they get out of control quickly? Your thoughts.
🤔🤔 news to me ....I've never heard of them being invasive... did you get gorse as this is related and can grow a little wild but I wouldn't have said invasive...keep me posted please
@@LHLgardenservices I was looking up information on it's care. One source was Herbal Jedi on RU-vid. He shows where it has taken over parts of Vancouver Island. Supposedly it is spread by it's many seeds. If that is true it would not matter if I have it in a pot or not. Your client's bush seems happy by itself without signs of spread right?
Such a weak machine, don't expect longevity from it. I think I've had mine about 4 years now, just domestic use at one property on a lawn about 2000sqm, it sounds like a bag of marbles. The fuel lines were the first thing to go, went hard and cracked, then the bearings on the tools themselves capitulated, the ignition coil failed so no spark, when I pulled the thing apart it was a Chinese 144F motor with a torch plug in it. Even as a cheap throwaway after a few years device, I think far better to hire than get one of these. It has the power to be used as a power rake, but really speaking we don't need one of those other than to flick the leaves and twigs out after winter do we, which you can do with a blower if you've got a good one like us or when you scarify anyway. Stick to those small lawns where you have no access and hopefully it will last you, but if you hear it starting to struggle and stall out on you then run it as shallow as you can because it doesn't have the build quality to withstand any real load. Hope you're having a good year mate, everything is like concrete here in South Wales in April, weird!
Hear what you say buddy but I must add...not fair to say a weak machine....just the job I used it on the initial review was a massive undertaking and it did it without a blip....im not hoping for miracles and I did say it was just for those jobs I can't get my other one in...these jobs are just getting a tlc tickle 😉
@@LHLgardenservices Give it time and you might change your mind. It is terribly weak by design, I will explain what I mean. I've had it in bits, It has a 53cc engine, most at comparable price are greater than 200cc. It compensates for this by using increased rpm, but has little torque and is geared rather than pulley so poor rotational inertia. Either they used a plastic chassis with low mass to prevent it tearing itself apart when it meets meaningful resistance (i.e it will jump in the air because it has no weight to hold itself down), similar to what you would use for an electric driven toothed motor not petrol with v-pulley (think flymo), or more likely I think this design is based on electric or battery and they threw a petrol option in there. Sorry for all the bs, but I was an industrial engineer so what do you expect ;) TLDR, in my opinion it's probably a bastardised electric chassis design, with a weak petrol engine bolted to it. Just bad. Take care mate, good to see you still going strong!
