good. I need to get a good pressure washer too and spreading these things out will keep the wife from freaking out.

Also just found out my father in law is going to buy us a bunch of yard care stuff as a housewarming present. I’ll see what we gonna get.

All our locust trees are dumping now (I hate locust tree's BTW...), but yea, everything else will fall after the first snowfall at the rate we're going.

Soo much overkill. I want it! I’d probably Just ride around on and blast leaves and shit all fucking over the place. lol!

 

[CMNTMXR57]

Gotta neighbor you don't like...

truth be told if you wanna borrow my gas husqvarna and see how it goes i could just drop it off.

Just meet up with a bunch of our blowers at his house and see which one is the best. Someone make a TheChicagoLawn YT page and get going with the comparisons.

I started mowing last night around 6 thinking Id be done with mowing right as I lost light. I was wrong, but at least the headlight on my mower helped me keep my lines. Neighbors probably think Im crazy now.

yes once the leaves fall I invite everyone to a bring your own blower event at my place.. lol.

so the wife bought me the 40v Ryobi handheld brushless blower and trimmer package as a surprise today. Fucker moves some air. I just ordered a second battery and charger. She says she will use it tomorrow and clear out the leaves that are in the lawn.. I’m skeptical. She also got a gas power washer which is noicce!

Detach, seed, starter fertilizer, watering.

Front and back recovered nicely. I have approx a dozen dandelions that creeped over from the neighbor to address this week, but other than that, going to lay down Winterizer fertilizer in the coming weeks and call it a year.

I want to get some 7.5aH batteries next year for the lawn mower. Then Ill have the 6aH ones that came with that for the trimmer and blower, but so far the 4aH that came with it is pretty good.

yup that is the one! It is really good. For now I’m going to have 2 4aH batteries. But plan on getting at least 1 6aH for the blower.

Picked this one up last year. Good work horse does everything I ask of it.

 

[jason05gt]

I borrowed my brother's Sun Joe yesterday and dethatched my backyard. It did a great job and cleared out a lot of undergrowth. I was amazed at how much junk it pulled up.

 

[Fish]

I want to dethatch, but I dont have the landfill to put the undergrowth in.

I can only imagine how long it has been.

Anybody else getting mushrooms in their yard like crazy? Everything I’m reading is saying they are typical for a well maintained and manicured lawn. I know there was a small tree in my front yard at some point so I figure it’s just eating the roots. Anyway I’ve been reading they are actually quite good for the lawn and short of running herbicide and torching the lawn and soil theres nothing that can be done besides picking them or running the lawnmower over them

 

[b00sted]

Yeah I get them due to old tree roots. I just run them over with the mower.

 

[Stink Star]

I always got the occasional one but this year is nuts, like I can see them on my security cam.

and there’s a neighbor on the neighborhood Facebook page posting articles that she saw saying mushrooms in yards kill dogs. So now I gotta pretend like I give a shit and pick them….. because she can’t keep her dog from eating out of other peoples yards. When I had a dog it was pretty damn easy to not let her roam wild in peoples yards.

I learned something new today. That's exactly where I've been seeing them, where trees used to be.

 

[Pewter-Camaro]

I just run them over. The neighbor had a giant mushroom that I wanted to get a picture of. It was just a round ball almost bowling ball sized but she tore it out before I could get a picture.

 

[CMNTMXR57]

Yea, I had a ton this week.

my dogs want nothing to do with the mushrooms so no worries there but I’m not picking them for other people because they can’t control or train their dogs.

I’ve read that they grow wherever there’s an abundance of organic matter (carbon) in the soil. That neighborhood fb page sounds about as terrible as the Nextdoor app I’m on.

we used to have a next door and it was a shitshow.

and yea, I think like 5 years before I moved in there was a tree in my front yard that was removed. I’d imagine the shrooms are eating the roots

The most recent drama on our neighborhood page was a local school using “ROUND UP” along their fence line and how all the neighborhood dogs were going to get cancer.
