Hmm, that could be a better idea for just doing the edges. I could spray the rest.
You could spray an iron treatment and use an old sheet of 2'x4' ply for protection - needs another pair of hands. New build lawns often need a good deep aeration also.
I'm hollow tining a few new builds this side of Christmas and fracture tining after. The places that produce moss for fun need the mechanical work. Can spray as much as we like but its the more short term approach.
Love the Bannerman Andy. Some tyre inflating and tightening up at the weekend. Plan on getting it onto a kids football pitch Friday night before more rain to limit some wet fixture damage. Is changing out there!
Thanks guys, I will be fracture tining the lawn in the spring as part of a renovation. The rest of the lawn isn't too bad, but the edges are all like the image above, so I am assuming that the edges where the lawn meets the paving is going to be a pain to keep moss free. I suppose the topsoil was quite thin around the edges.
I think I'll just cover the edges of the paving and be really careful with the sprayer.
One other left field option is MossOff: HERE
Spray it around the edges, kills the moss but won't stain the paving. May be quicker and safer?
Hmm, that's interesting, thanks progreen. I see it works by basically starving the moss with a barrier, but how does it not then kill the grass in between the moss also?
...fairy dust ? The natural plant extracts form the barrier and 'suffocates' the moss but the molecule size is large enough that it will not block the stomata in normal plants and grasses...
That's cool :)
Sorry I have an inbuilt need to know how things work :P
Well I bought some, lets see how it does :)
