“Forceful Insecticides & Fertilizers: Homemade Recipes”

I decided I was going to get a head start on my lawn care planning this year so I went to the big box garden store to checkout this season’s latest and greatest lawn treatment. The big news is, there is no big news. Didn’t see any radical new products, instead I just saw all the usual solutions.

Well, I’m not excited about spending a ton of money on the same old chemicals I’ve used for the past 10 years. This year I’m going to do something wild and crazy and prepare my own homemade lawn fertilizer and insecticide. I bought an ebook with some interesting looking lawn care recipes and am going to give it a try.

Check back often for updates on how these homemade recipes are working.

Here’s the link to the book I’m using if you’re interested: “Forceful Insecticides & Fertilizers: Homemade Recipes”

How To Sharpen A Reel Mower

One Way To Sharpen Reel Mower Blades
Proceed With Caution!

If you own a standard reel mower then you know the blades need to be sharpened every so often. You can buy sharpening kits and sharpen each blade by hand, but that takes a bit of time and effort. Here is an ‘automated’ way to do it as well.

The photo illustrates one method you can use to sharpen your reel mower in a matter of minutes.

The setup requires an electric motor, a large pulley (wooden or metal) to fit the end of the cutter shaft, two heavy duty clamps, a belt and some oil and emery (cutting) paste.
