What video do you want next? Lawn Transformation or Patios and Pathways?
Won’t the weeds get in growining from the organic debris from the trees over time?
Really great post and very much appreciated though
"Hour and a half……" 😂😂 Right-o…
Can you add resin to the black ice stone, does it block the rain water and flood your garden?
Nice Vid thanks. How would you edge a garden though that isn't straight? ie. Follow a curved path?
So the secret, spending lots of money
Cats love a 💩 in the bark.
Mcdonalds are always happy to give away cardboard. Just ask, they normally let you help yourself.
DIY edging is impossible without practicing yoga
I have used concrete fence panels sunk around the lawn edge and then painted .
Those Oakleys! LOL
Not everyone has access to that amount of cardboard!
which edging? you only showed us 1!
I had hedging put in by builder to seperate the garden from the raised border a few years ago. part of the garden has now sunk on the edge and hence when raining it fills with water and expose the thrown down concrete. waste of money but now cannot do it again no more money left
You can get tiny string line levels that attach to the string line, don't think any DIYer is going to buy that laser level
Bark is lovely .. but watch out for mushroom growth! We had a whole load of strange fungi eruptions.. the bark had been imported and mixed from Canadian forestry to U.K.
Can you not just use a line level?
All good stuff , like the dame Edna Everage sunglasses 👍
Looks great bud
In my openion every home should have front garden
We have used both weed fabric and the cardboard idea with great results on our allotments, also the 100 liter bags from compost or chipped bark are great for parking areas, when used with slabs and bark between because they are black inside.
I love that you talk about free and eco friendly options
Long time viewer, first time commenting: I think ^_^
Little tip I picked up from somewhere, when cutting that weed membrane use a gas soldiering iron with a cut bit, no frayed edges and its just a quick to size
Where did you order the black ice stone? much cheaper price than I've been quoted
You can buy some cheaper pebbles to put in the bottom of the area before putting the decorative stone on top. Just don't over do it and it will look the same and you've saved your self a bob. Especially if you have a large area to cover.
Edge lord
What happened to the 3 edging ideas
Concrete edging???? No thanks
Could’ve moved the worm first.
What is car board?
Misunderstood, now I've been arrested for edging in my garden.
11:57 Try sealing your stones with concrete sealer for that lasting wet look.
Wash & dry them, load up your mixer and put in a small amount of sealer.
No mixer? Put clean stones on an old tarp, add sealer and roll stones back and forth to get complete coverage. Easier with 2 people but doable alone.
It takes surprisingly little sealer.
Looks good for about 1 or 2 years once the soil moist it will crack 😂😂😂, footing need deeper 300mm minimum
Thanks for the video. One question, why did you put plasticiser in the mix when just setting the edging?
Does cardboard block horsetail…because weed membrane doesn't?
Weed seeds blowing into the garden can (and will) grow in the bark mulch and the gravel, the cardboard and landscape fabric only stops established weeds in the soil from growing. Bark mulch will break down over time, forming a rich compost
