5 Cheap & Easy DIY Landscaping Tips & Ideas (Plus Bonus Tips!) 🌱

Great tips man. Thanks for the vid.

You didn’t use any barrier between the dirt and mulch….do you have weeds coming through the mulch?

Slight Math nitpick: using string around a tree, you would say "Trace out a circumference", not a diameter.

A diameter is the distance across a circle, so really your using the circle's radius to trace around the circle's perimeter, also called its circumference. Sorry, the Mathtuber in me had to take this opportunity to educate.

Yall just use a buck saw to trim branches mercy

You mentioned that you needed to prune the tree because the limbs were too low to mow under. Really, you don't want to be mowing under a tree at all. Mowers will damage the roots and trunk and shorten the life of the tree. At the very least you want a ring of mulch around the trunk, or better yet a planting of sedges or any other shade-loving native plants. Ideally, this planting should extend as far as the crown of the tree. If your tree's crown is really big, hey that's all the more reason to go ahead and kill your lawn and replace the whole thing with native plants.

If you use a string trimmer or edger, wear hard-toe boots! It's very easy to cut your toes off.

Wow great video! I’m a new homeowner and had no idea about the first step of landscaping 🌲🌳🪻Thanks!

I made a nice edge a few months ago but can't seem to get my Ryobi string trimmer to cut it properly. Any tips? Thanks so much! Great video!

Super helpful

Sure use a sawzall but your going to be going through blades so fast. Just use a small chainsaw pruner

Thanks for sharing ..I'm watching you from Philippines Davao

Who else edging while watching?

I water the soil in around new plantings. Jamming in the soil with the butt end of a trowel? No.

Do you think that your edging technique will be effective with Zoysia grass which has a very long thicket root system? I just purchased hard plastic edging but haven't started installing it.

Ah yes, the turbo nozzle may take longer to complete the job than the other, but the longer I spend on one job is less jobs my wife can give me 🙂 😅

Love the black mulch!

❤ how would someone go about getting certified with these lasers to put it into business? Either independently at a laser med spa or with cosmetic doctors?

Can mulch catch on fire, or is it pretty safe??

Looks great. First time I've ever seen black mulch look good–matching the house.👍

Thanks for sharing.

Great tips

Bro I was edging so hard to this vid the whole thanks man

What a beautiful yard great tips

Your video became a "honeydo" list for me!

The recip saw is a useful but violent tool for pruning. The cuts in the video were bad. They will cause harm to the tree in coming years. Trees need to be pruned from the beginning of their life to ensure you do not have poor growth patterns (4:47). If that maintenance is done when the tree is juvenile, you would never need a reciprocating saw to cut limbs (unless damaged by nature). I understand often people just buy into property with established trees, promoting your audience to care for trees in their youth would be far more helpful. Proper pruning techniques would be not cutting the crown, good angle and prior branch weight reduction. Following proper arborist limb removal by removing only Crossing/Rubbing/Diseased/Dead limbs is very important.

It’s refreshing to see a YouTube video with the host using the proper names for all the power tools! ❤

Excellent 🌞

For a flower bed, should the mulch be piled higher than the grass or should it be level? The garden beds I inherited are a mess and I’m not sure if I need to dig it all out and place new mulch so it’s even with the grass or what.

Great tip about the sawzaw. Got a root that needs to be removed. Didn’t want to dull my chain. Thx

Appreciate the basics. I’m a new homeowner trying to learn about salt water pools, lawn care and irrigation/drainage. Previous owner took decent care at best for everything. Lots of DIY of his in going to have to fix.
