Garden tiller for topsoil electric / petrol

Now that you mention it... My aforementioned neighbor used Roundup beforehand. However, I don't believe in it at all!

The Round-Up available for purchase by the general public and approved is not effective. At least not in the long term. For everything else, you need a license.

It always surprises me why so many people, mostly laymen, have to resort to chemical weapons.

On the other hand, expensive weed fleece is laid under the beds and people wonder why weeds still grow over time.

Or a slope is cleared only to complain after the next storm that the soil from the slope is on the terrace...

Well, honestly, who still feels like doing "real" garden maintenance these days?

A fleece can help reduce weeds, but honestly, has anyone really caught the neighbors weeding regularly last year? Nobody does that anymore because everyone (the majority, sorry already) has become too lazy.

Hello Tox,

me; whenever I have 2 or 3 hours; alternatively one of my babies. We have plenty of land behind the house and over the years have transformed it into a "low-maintenance" area. Still, I would have a jungle instead of a garden if the weeds were not removed regularly and manually in the classic way.

Btw. 'EveundGerd' is right: all money for so-called magic remedies can be safely saved if there are no contacts to wield the chemical club.

Rhenish greetings on the go

My conscience has kept me from buying chemicals until now. Of course, people are lazy. But they also have an urge to produce with their hands and to do something with their hands. To make... Gardening clears the mind and protects desk workers from burnout. And yes, here they all dig in the garden ...

Chemistry is only effective in the long run... because usually weed seeds come flying in from all directions with the wind, or through bird droppings, etc., so every year new ones come which then grow... I actually enjoy that it’s not a boring green lawn but here a little flower and there a dandelion grow and the flying little creatures enjoy them and only then does the garden really become a garden =)

With our first house, for example, we had zero chance because there was a nature reserve behind it from where everything came over anyway

It’s really sh... of course when you get topsoil that contains really nasty stuff like scrap metal etc...

Hello guys, all good

I'm just learning to mow the lawn

With all the furrows and so on it gets too complex for me. I’ll just till around first, shape everything, sow and then we’ll see. I’m not fooling myself, there will always be rework to have an English lawn by 2025

One more silly question, I don't want to buy all the equipment, spread grass seeds by hand or is it better otherwise??
