I have a big yard that's full of weeds, some of them with points on them. I always use a hand weed wacker but it takes hours upon hours to get it to look halfway decent. I don't have the room or the money to buy a lawn mower. What do you recommend that's a small and efficient appliance to maintain this yard?


Answer
To get rid of weeds in your front yard you may want to spray them with Roundup. This herbicide kills all plants, so don't let it drift onto plants or lawn that you want to keep. There is no easy way to get rid of weeds organically. You will probably need to hoe or pull them up. A tip: it is easier to pull weeds when the soil is slightly moist. Before you plant the garden, prepare the soil for planting and water it. Allow it to sit unplanted for a couple of weeks so weed seeds can germinate and be cleared before you plant. Another method to use it to cover the soil with heavy plastic for 1 - 2 months to solarize it. This can kill diseases, insects and some seeds. Using mulch also cuts down on weeds. You can use a rototiller to get rid of the weeds, but that potentially may create more of them in the long run. Rototilling will bring up weed seeds buried in the soil and it chops up roots into multiple pieces, some of which can sprout.

What's a cheap way to store a riding lawn mower?




Graciela,


My aunt offered me a good deal on her old riding lawn mower and I really want to buy it. Unfortunately, I have no place for it. My garage is too small, and our cars barely fit already. I have no shed and can't afford to build one. Are there any other options?


Answer
Sheds really aren't that expensive. you can pick up a cheap DIY plastic shed for very little money.

if that still isn't an option, go with a tarp. just park the thing next to your house and lay the tarp over it. if it's windy, make sure to stake it down.
