Lads, I got a newly rolled lawn laid 6 weeks ago. I messed up cutting it today & cut it too short. I had set the level to 5 but must have slipped down to 3 when I moved it. Only noticed it when I was finished.

I had trimmed it 2 weeks ago was fine. Anyhow there's loads of brown spots now.

I've watered it every evening that it hasn't rained.

Any tips on how to get it back to a uniform colour and do's and don't going forward would be greatly appreciated.

Go easy on me, I'm new to this being an adult having to look after others things bar myself.

What could have eaten this sunflower? Surrounded by netting on all sides and on top. Pretty far from the netting too. If it was pulled through the netting then why, when there were some that were actually poking leaves through and those weren't taken.

I’m new to gardening and growing flowers. Are these nasturtiums ready to harden off? Any tips? Thank you 🪴

What is this plant? I've been potting up seedlings over the past couple of weeks, labelling in batches. I've got no idea what this is.

Appreciation post for this lad, the bees are loving it at the moment

Wanted to get some work done around the yard and garden, all costing total €15,708.40? To me it’s too much what do ye think?

I’ve eeeh only Skeeters Broom, Summer Gold, Emerald Lace and Atropurpureum.

Last year they did have Shaina. :.( ! Not sure if they have it this year. Not a great price.

This location is at Blanchardstown Shopping Centre.

I'm looking for something biodegradable to go around saplings and bushes, other than just a pile of bark mulch and wondering if anyone has any experience with this type of thing which they could share - thank you!

Hi all. I've been investigating options on what to do with my lawn and still not sure whats the bear way. Hence, I need your valuable feedback please.

We moved into our first home last year. Very happy, but lots of work still ahead. We've fixed most of issues inside and now it's time to pay some attention to our garden. It looks like we have more weed than grass there as it wasn't maintained well enough for good knows how long. Should we dig it all out and buy rolls? Should we try and remove all the weed and reseed?

EDIT: Thanks everyone! I think I was "spolied" with all those US movies with ideal (and boring) lawns. I'll feed the grass and will look into adding wildlife ponds to make it more live. You are all amazing! And I'm happy I was wrong thinking it's "not ok"!

What best way to get rid of these weeds??? This grass only -3-4yrs old when lad it laid.

Hi people, first time posting here

Bought a house recently. All that green-patchy/mossy floor in the picture was gravel only a couple months ago but spring is here Life really finds its way!

I'm wondering what's a good approach here. Should i literally remove those weeds one by one ? How about the moss mat that's grown between and above the pebbles? Any product to kill that?

As much as i love nature this is getting out of hand and i want to recover some control on that space

I'm also planning on getting some big scissors and trim those trees and the bushes

Any recommendations on tooling and products are greatly appreciated, totally newbie gardener man here!

This is my ‘Lawn’. Lots of flowers (weeds) and grass. I mow it a few times a year and never ever use any chemicals on it. And I love it!
