Mowing Your Lawn In Townsville
***scene: Its a quiet morning in a sleepy Townsville suburb
. The birds are chirping. What a lovely morning to kick back and relax***
Dear, the lawn needs mowing.
(Five words you DONT want to hear)
Not Now!!!
But its really long.
Not NOW!!!
Arent you embarrassed? The neighbours have all done theirs.
Good for them.
Pleeeaaaassse!
NOT NOW!!!
If you do it now, itll be cooler. Besides, if you do it nowwell have time for.. other things later.
Now thats something you DO want to hear.
Shes got me now. Im cornered.
I go to the shed and drag out the old rotary mower.
I start it upVroom!
Love that roar. Hate this job.
I put the blades down as far as they go.
Ha! Take that, lawn!
I figure if I cut it really short, then I wont have to cut it again for ages
Smart thinking, right?!
Wrong!
Huh? Where did HE come from? And how did he read my mind?
Its Bill, The Lawn Guru.
What do you meanwrong? I ask, annoyed
If you mow it that low, youll scalp it
Yep, thats the idea, genius.
If you mow the lawn too low, particularly here in Townsville, youll burn it.
Youll also give the weeds room to grow.
Hmmph!
And why are you mowing NOW? Theres still dew on the grass. Wet grass will stick to the blades and make your mowing really uneven.
I tried to tell her, didnt I?!
You really should have a mulching mower its better for your lawn and itll save you all those trips emptying the catcher.
I like the sound of that.
Of course, if you want a really good finish, you could use a cylinder/drum mower. Theyre great for couch lawns, like yours. But
But what?
You need to mow twice as often with one of those. But its worth it, thats what the professionals use, you know.
Twice a week. Stuff that.
Well those edges wont need doing for a while, at least. I doused em with weed killer last weekend.
Huh? Hes doing that freaky mind reading thing again.
Now hes frowning at my edges.
Well, they would look much nicer if you used a mechanical garden edger instead of chemicals.
Sounds like the missus
You could have a square or a round edge. And you wouldnt have such wide furrows either. Thats better for erosion problems. But
But WHAT?
For best results, you really should do the edging every time you mow.
Sure thing, O Great Lawn Guru I say, sarcastically.
I know hes right, but Im stuffed if Ill admit it.
Althoughit would be fun to make the neighbours jealous
All right Bill.Maybe Ill try it your way.
Vroom!!!
