Very useful video. My lawn being small means I do all my work with basic hand tools - mowing, edging, aerating and scarifying. Although my favourite take away from this vid is storing kit in a wheelie bin! Haha

[MG-hxym]

Wow, the initial before and after was very beautiful and impressive.

[gsk]

Great video, as always. Good to watch a UK based lawn expert.

I'm rubbish at gardening but I just brought this tool and now I know how to use it and it was made to look easy :)

ah to have a small yard (garden). Here in America I have 20 acres and mow 2 around my house and have flower beds galore and its a bit tougher to stay on top of. I guess that's why we would just use RoundUp on your gravel and then go watch telly.

[MG-hxym]

You are so thorough, well spoken and organised in this video. This is just so great to learn a new landscaping skill.

[MiAngeito]

so pleased all of the grass filled out

[droolbunnyxo]

Good tips, thank you. I'm not sure we have these tools in the US but will look for them. I often use inexpensive dollar store serrated bread knives for small area edging. And for cutting through fine roots. You can easily dig deep using them.

I have been contemplating bringing my lawn out from one end of the garden, it is right to the fence/hedge and I was thinking bedding would be a nice change.

[adlaialmeida]

Good tip on using your foot for the edging, will definitely do it doing forward

[robdiss]

Looks good, I prefer hand tools for edging too, running your hand along the edge finishes them off. Cheers

[kerryclark]

Looks great! I saw what you started with and this is a great transformation.

Looking forward to your full review of the Bosch push mower as I'm thinking of getting one for next year.

I’ve been trying to find a half moon shaped edging tool here in Australia but had no luck.

[RedHaloManiac]

If you have a sprinkler system you need to be careful when edging around shrubs! You could easily cut this connection coming from the grass so you need to be aware of where these lines are buried

Glad this video came up. I had a scarifying incident earlier in the year that left my lawn about 25% grass & 75% top soil (poor maintainance for about 3 years lol). I've been following this project of yours to bring it back. It's now looking amazing and my next job on it is edging. So good timing :^))

Nice video pal. I think a lot of people forget about good hand tools.

[wandadelacruz]

Great tutorial video and new subscriber. I will be binge watching all your videos.

[GeorgeAlexa]

It is starting to be Fall of 2023, and grass has stopped growing. I bought a Weed Wacker with an edger and could have saved myself money had I watched your video. I want my sister's yard to look just like this!

Nice crisp edges there Matt. You need to abrade back some of that surface rust on your shear blades though. I find wet and dry paper and Wd-40 works well. Then liberally apply a lubricating oil (like 3in1) over the blades to protect them from moisture and rusting. You can also give them a quick sharpen with an oil stone and give the nut a tweak to tighten it. That will keep the shears sharp, smooth and cutting well. 👍🏻
