OK your the guy then! I have palmetto lawn , its as healthy as F , I usually pitch fork it during the winter, but do I need vertimow this anyway? Or is this only something that uou only do when it looks a bit crook
the #1 reason to verti is to remove thatch. I generally stick away from vertimowing lawns in poor condition as they recover poorly
itâs the best thing you can do for your lawn. itâll come back even better is it spongey?

youâd be better off asking a dog drainer how to stop your dogs digging 
dog burn spots are a pain. females are worse. change your dogâs diet and take note if it makes any changes. I find thatâs the only way

Fair answers, also is it better to keep the lawn a tad higher in warmer months or cooler
longer in winter, shorter in summer/spring mate. regular mowing helpsawn health. so does even retic coverage
instead of waffling on, here is a link -
Do you have efficient sprinkler heads? - Water Corporation
even retic coverage is the most important thing you need for a healthy lawn. I recommend lightly fertilising at half application rates every 6 weeks, and in warmer months wetter once a month, depending what it is

Yeah obviously a different climate in Tas, so far this year turned the bog heap into a lawn, whilst the Border was recovering from a leg op.
Starting to mulch mow now, twice a week, the rains have been perfect, no watering necessary
Yes it is but I just assumed all buffalo lawns end up like that, because they are a thick runner grass and itâs unavoidable. Best time of year to do this?
any time the lawn is actively growing mate - general rule is buffalo likes warmer temps to recover. October to march generally

Whatâs ok to do in regards to neighbours plants growing over your fence?
My back neightbour has vines growing onto my side of the fence as they have beans and â â â â growing along the back fence. Also have other neighbours trees growing and dropping leaves on my yard. Again spoke to them and they told me tough luck.
Tempted to spray weed killer on them.
I believe that you are legally entitled to chop back anything growing into your property from next door and that you are also allowed to throw the bits youâve cut off back over the fence.
This approach, however, does not engender cordial relationships with the neighbours.
If they donât care / wonât co-operate, it leaves you in a difficult position.

if youâve already spoken to them about it, and they are being d*ckheads, get the round-up out

Iâve always just trimmed along the fence line, but disposed of the rubbish myself. No discussions, never had any issue.
If they have a problem, you can just say âtough luck" back.
Start hacking down anything that is growing over onto your property
