[quote=Anonymous]We went from a condo to close to half an acre, and do the lawncare ourselves. We bought a mulching lawnmower, so we can leave the clippings on the lawn instead of raking/bagging them. This also fertilizes the grass, which saves us from having to do that. We (and by "we" I mean my husband) try to mow once a week in peak growing season; but if we fall behind I don't stress. In the fall, we rake the leaves in the front yard to the curb to be vacuumed up. We run the mower over the leaves in the back yard and leave them to decompose, feed the soil, and block the weeds. We reseed twice a year and run the sprinkler whenever the kids want some water play. Also invest in a weed whacker to do trimming//edging along your walkways and trees.[/quote]
