Here a squelch, there a squelch, everywhere a squelch, squelch

I was out on mine today; drying, but not enough to take the mower yet. With the promised wet weather at the weekend we may be back to square one.

The same - my lawn is one big green squelch!

My lawn is still too wet and squelchy. I garden on a steep slope so glad to put it off for a bit longer, as I hate mowing it. I am pleasantly surprised at the lack of moss this year. I put it down to applications of Mo Bacter last spring and autumn. Expensive but kills and digests moss without the need to scarify.

I’ve spent a lovely few hours in the garden, cut the lawn on a highcut I was really surprised how much the ground had dried out from a week ago and the grass itself was also dry and easy to cut, I’ve cut back a Hebe that was dangling all over one section of lawn and recut about 6’ of the edge of the lawn the rest will have to be done another day as my backs now had enough. I really enjoyed myself so nice to feel the warmth of the sun on my back.
This is the only time I miss not being able to have a soak in a nice hot bath ??
