Went to K&D to get a new head for my weed eater and a new edger and they was non stop busy.

Everyone around my neighborhood is doing the lawn.

What's your order of operations when you do the lawn?

Weed eat
Edge
Hedges
Mow
Blow


Or


Edge
Hedges
Weed eat
Mow
Blow?

Make sure we picked up all the dog poop in the backyard before the landscapers arrive every other Thursday morning.

Bought a foreclosure on an acre of land.

I won't get to the lawn for 2-3 months despite 4 to 5 hrs a day each weekend.

Didn't get to edge yesterday because my PoS Troy Bilt edger lost traction on the pull starter after only one season. $15 replacement on the way.

That's what I get for not just going all Echo.

1.Mow
2.Push mow what riding mower couldn't get close enough to.
3.Blow

I don't live in an HOA area, so screw weed eating. That's what poison is for.

Stick edger
Weed eat
Mow and catch clippings, no mulch kit.
No blower

Spray beds and fenceline every month or so to keep weeds at bay.

Nope. I've always mowed first. Then weed eat/edge. Then blow off clippings.
