Hand-Pulling Weeds, Burning Lawn Grass, Mowing
This is lawn on March 21st.
I removed weeds first. Pulling with Nukerunn-desu Mini . I took out wastepaper basket in the living room instead of bucket and took grasses for two baskets. There still remain some, but it’s OK because they are roughly removed. (Though I entitled it Hand-Pulling, I haven’t pulled exactly by hand because I used Nukerunn-desu Mini. Is it all right?)
Then I burnt the lawn grasses . Because the fire didn’t spread, I grilled the entire surface by small grass grilled burner (big fire GT-50E) . Though it was somewhat burnt, there are a lot of gaps if you look closely. It is fairly rough, but there is a reason.
There is a small part of the lawn, which hasn’t become green, in the corner of the yard. This place is where I burnt on February 13th . The rumour that burning lawn grass facilitates the spring sprouting was a misconception.
Mowing lawn at the end. First, Edge trimming with Ryobi Reel-Type Lawn Mower LM-2800 . The cutting height was the lowest of 5 mm. It hit the bricks a little.
Then the advent of Baroness LM12MH . Cutting height was the lowerst of 5 mm again. I enjoyed the smell of the mawing for the first time in several months.
Today’s picking was for two collector boxes.
The backyard Lawn after the procedures. I am planning vertical cutting (root cutting), which embraces thatcing , and topsoiling for the next procedures. I ordered Tachikawa-Heiwa’s soil for 2 bags X 5 sets, 10 bags in total on the internet.
