As Blue Monday is fast approaching, I thought it would be a good idea to give a small reminder to our community here on Landscape Juice to remember to tell people about your worries and if you’re having negative thoughts. Talking about emotions…
“Gardening programmes tend to be very ‘traditional’ white middle-class in their attitude towards gardening”, Julia Sargeant said in an interview after she won gold at Chelsea Flower Show in 2016. She was the first black gardener to design…
Studies report that burglary is one of the most emotionally impactful crimes to be a victim of. The prevention of being succumbed to it is always at the back of our minds – is anything on show? Are all the windows closed? Did you definitely lock…

This mower is an absolute beast. Finished a huge job that would have taken 4-5hrs of Strimming in just over 1hr with the remote control slope mower. Not only did it take grass that hadn't been cut in 2 years, it took the slopes in its stride and…
"In my experience ivy does not go gently into the good night and doesn't like to just let go once it's dead. The adventitious roots tend to cling on for a long time and then it just looks brown and some of the leaves would fall off and make a mess.…"
"I would just bite the bullet and demolish and rebuild it properly im afraid, its probably just a single skin non frost brick and been built with no water protection on the rear and no weep holes.

"Is cutting the base away, and using glyphosate on the stumps an option? Just so that the ivy dies away and falls off the masonry without taking any mortar and brickwork with it."
"Firstly, as Adam has said, make sure you have in writing that you're not liable for any damage. Secondly, don't do it until at least August, it's probably full of nests and it's an offence under the wildlife and countryside act to damage or disturb…"
"Hi I find it's not so much the stroke rate an issue on this machine but a relative lack of power behind it compared to the HLA135 (which is shorter, not telescopic due to rear motor). The HLA85 / HLA86 are ok on annual growth but slow on older…"
I do have a large dose of cynicism regarding the show gardens with exhibitors stretching the boundaries of practicality,appreciate it's a showcase for design and new ideas which I don't take issue with.However we have Monty Don's "dog friendly"…

"Thanks Neil appreciated. From the reviews I've seen onYT the dead mans trigger does come in for complaint If we get one will tape it open ! Currently exploring buying a 1mt extension tube and long reach hedgecutter attachments for our existing Stihl…"
"Hi Peter, I have just swapped from HLA 85 (8 years old) which was on its last legs to the 86. It seems heavier, but maybe it's just me. I use AP300 in all my hedgetrimmers, one battery can last all day, for me, as apposed to petrol running…"
"All very useful and relevant advice above , I would add don't be tempted to over reach up a ladder to grab that tempting strand of dangling ivy , very easy to misjudge and lose your balance .

"I agree with the comment that you shouldn't really start doing this until after nesting season as many birds use ivy to nest in, particularly but not exclusively robins. Beyond that, I don't envy you a task like that. I agree with wearing as much…"
"If it is 2ft deep, bewars of nesting birds as well as the other suggestions. I removed a big one probably 30 years ago, up under soffits & into the roof space. I didn't have any PPE on at the time & ended up covered in hives, now allergic to Ivy…"
Opinions from users please, is the 3000spm an issue? Won't be using it on conifer. How unwieldy/heavy fully extended? What battery are you using and run time? We need the 3mt reach that is why interested in the 86, or any other suggestions. Thanks.
