Crawfie Posted April 20 Report Share Posted April 20 No …not the company but the grass variety . Anyone else suffered with a major moss infestation on their lawn after the long wet winter ? My electric lawn rake has just given me 4 garden waste bags full . Aldi rake …brilliant but of kit . Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RobH Posted April 20 Report Share Posted April 20 Yes my lawn morphed from grass to moss over the winter. I might just keep it - you don't have to cut it like you do with grass Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Charlie D Posted April 20 Report Share Posted April 20 I started to rake out the moss but soon discovered that all I would have left of the lawn would be mud. So I've left it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Peter Cobbold Posted April 20 Report Share Posted April 20 Just now, Charlie D said: I started to rake out the moss but soon discovered that all I would have left of the lawn would be mud. So I've left it. Now is good time to sow wildflower seeds into that mud. https://meadowmania.co.uk/collections/100-wildflower-seed-only-mixtures-no-grass No need for the mower all summer !

Waldi Posted April 21 Report Share Posted April 21 I gave up battling the moss each spring. It is green too. During summer the grass appears again. And I certainly no longer use moss-killers and other poisons I used before, they do not only kill the moss but also little insects that birds and other animals live on.

MilesA Posted April 24 Report Share Posted April 24 After years of cultivating nothing but moss in our small north London garden we went for this option. Couldn't be happier! Miles Quote Link to post Share on other sites
