Yes and you forget to say how many of its plants are more or less edible for you and your partner ...

Dandelion salad, nettles cooked like spinach ...

The worries whose flowers (in season, right?) They also eat etc .....

The mounting (excellent) should be included in the heritage of the best in econology !!! yes, yes, I insist :P

Hello,
digging up (speaking of a garden : Mrgreen: )
two solutions for maintenance:
the llama: he eats everything but really everything
Japanese lawn: it is a mixture of flowers sown with lawn
it gives flowers all year round, we mow twice a year in autumn and spring.

shearing




by formasin » 28/06/13, 08:26

animals can be used as a pulling force. this is our case with donkeys and a helical mower. it works well. of course you have to be big enough to mow, but working with animals is very pleasant. you can see the photos and videos on http://lesanesdugite.blogspot.fr/

Why make it simple when you can make it complicated

a methanizer to put the mowed grass and other waste

a modified lawn mower to run on methane

a good methanizer must produce far more methane than the mower consumes

I started in this direction a few years ago ... I passed the mower to a neighbor: the amount of grass that I brought back after having consumed a few liters of gasoline in the mower was impressive!

at home it's simpler I let grow the brambles and the orthie to hide the scrap

At home too: I let the grass grow in certain areas, pass the mower on "paths" (going to flower beds, to spreading) and to a "garden table / barbecue" area); elsewhere, I let grow, with just a late mowing so that the brush doesn't set in: little by little, the "meadow flowers" (daisies, blueberries, St. John's wort, etc.) ... settle ... late mowing the resemes, after allowing them to bloom ... The dandelions, present, regress ... And I have the visit of many insects that need them, these flowers ...

It annoys the neighbor, but that's his problem.

Although he was also tempted, finally found the beds quite pretty, and seeing that I spent 3 times less time than him to mow an equivalent area ... But he wanted an immediate result: he left an area, but no 'had almost nothing but "grass" (grasses); normal! He thought he had a massive "flowered" like me, the first time!
