The owner was too SCARED to remove this MENACE! Satisfying overgrown lawn clean up you won't believe

This was a crazy and wildly overgrown kikuyu and buffalo grass lawn.

Hi! My name is Tim The Lawnmower Man and I love to clean up overgrown yards and make fun videos doing it. I'm able to do them for free as these videos have ads on them and the revenue from that enables me to cover my cost.
I'm always looking for the worst yards around. Sometimes I drive around looking for them, sometimes viewers send me suggestions.

[@Irene-gq4jr]

Was thinking much the same myself. Alas, I'm watching this for gardening inspiration and it is now time to get up off my chuff and actually work on my own garden (mostly weeding today, urghhh).

[@Starrynightdiner]

I love how carefully you are at weedwhacking around the small trees, making sure not to damage them. Nobody does that. You are a pro. ❤❤❤

[@scottbormann2765]

Most people don't, but Tim does, & it's a good practice, cause if over time a person breaks the cambium it could kill the tree, the bark is there to protect, good eye on that. Bark is outer , then the cambium layer so either one should not be damaged.

[@Starrynightdiner]

@@scottbormann2765 is that why sometimes trees are wrapped with what looks like tar paper around the bottom? I always wondered why they do that?

[@alanbierhoff6831]

It’s a requirement of being a Certified Lawn Detailer. During competitions they’re judged on things like that. 😎

[@scottbormann2765]

@@Starrynightdiner They're wrapped for other reasons, 1 is it protects the bark from weather conditions. When a tree is growing they paint mark on bark for identification, & tells you what direction to plant a tree. If a paint dab is on the south side of a tree, when you purchase it for your home, you should plant it so, the paint dab is facing south, it you change the direction, it might have problems growing. The weather conditions on bark are different, so many factors.

This is masterful. Even though the homeowner is (or has been) overseas, I sure hope they see the before and after and appreciate the detailed work.

[@dianaviselli3136]

Great job as always! You take a disaster area and make it into a beautiful lawn. Plus I noticed that you showed concern for your helper by reminding him to use his protective glasses. That means a lot! God bless!

[@debibrown5568]

This guy was “ overseas” to the U.S.🇺🇸? 🤣 I was a military brat. And we called being overseas when we were on your side of the world! Using the the trimmer on those purple bushes was amazing! Awesome job you guys! The owners have to be thrilled with the job y’all did! - watching from Lake Wales, Florida

Just wanted to say this video wasn’t too long for me. I could’ve watched this video go on for twice the amount of time! Love seeing all that pretty landscaping reappear. Great job!

[@slayerbllade]

I swear we need at least another 5 mins of the end result haha. I'm always so disappointed that we only get 30 sec of the end result after watching through 30 mins (or the 1-2 hr video you have) of the work. Great job on the videos anyways. Always looking forward to more new ones!

[@SoulsJourney]

That was the most massive thistle I've ever seen! I liked how you kept stabbing it to make sure it was dead (26:17 )🤣These massively overgrown yards must be so gratifying to work on. It's a ton of work, but when you see the result at the end it must be so satisfying.

[@tinydancer7426]

I hate thistle. It will fight you tooth and nail when you try to remove it. And, if you don't get all of the root, it WILL just grow back. Then it is time to employ some chemical warfare. Poke weed is another one that is hard to get rid of without an herbicide if it has had a chance to develop a good tap root.

[@shineisland7447]

I thought it was an artichoke and may have shrieked aloud...thank you, I was hoping someone would identify it for me

[@tinydancer7426]

@@shineisland7447 Artichokes are a cultivated variety of the cardoon, which is a member of the thistle family. So, you weren't far off in your assumption. And, yes, that was a monster of a thistle. I have battled a few of the big'uns and it can be a very sticky (pun intended) situation.

[@SoulsJourney]

@@shineisland7447 Turns out artichokes and thistles are part of the same family, so you're justified in thinking it may have been an artichoke 😁

[@trishhoapili7587]

You made a huge difference ! I think white rock decoration is a waste of time - the natural color rocks don’t seem to deteriorate so badly when weeds infest it. Interesting to see how compact these new housing lots are - I guess privacy and a garden to relax in will be a thing of the past. I really like how you approach returning order to a garden - I bet the owner will be so happy 😊

[@sophiahockman5844]

Why is it that people who don't take care of their yards and could care less about gardening always have a bunch of flower pots outside. It looks so tacky and disorganized. Also, this is such a nice house why would they just neglect the yard like that. It's not a big front yard to begin with that it can't be easily maintained. Thanks Tim for coming to the rescue yet again.

[@noraleestone2859]

Sophia, that was quite unkind. Where I live, we aren't allowed to have gardens, so containers and pots it is. The homeowner obviously is trying, in that he/she did call in Tim to do the property (as I understand it). 😁 Also, they are just at the beginning of "winter" in Oz, so I don't know what plants would be best then. Do you? I've always loved gardening, but I'm not O.C. about it. Likely that homeowner has higher priorities in their life at the moment. Just sayin' 🤔🙂

[@brendadickenson3547]

Now the home has so concrete design elements showing nicely. I am sure the owners will appreciate this job!

[@robertshrewsbury5067]

Thank you for working on that yard. While at one point, about 3:35, I was trying to puzzle-out what you were recovering...it wasn't a planting bed but the front stepping stones to the door. A major thing to "lose" in overgrowth. I don't know the Red Leaved plant, guessed Barberry of some sort. Had no idea it had overgrown its boundary so much. That was an interesting trim, using your Trimmer, to handle it. Laughed when the buried utilities were uncovered. Amidst all the priorities, that is one not to forget to find. Very nice you are including people. This work is a treasure. A "lost" yard was taken back to form, with a combination of tools/skill/artwork/good intent/persistence. The owners will know someone looked out for them, they were not forgotten and they can come home to a place ready for use.

[@hamishmackay7047]

Great job again, staggered that anyone could live with that mess outside.

[@briane173]

Me thinks the gravel areas could've used a little weed-block laid down and the gravel put back. That's the downside to the gravel is it takes the smallest amount of loess and silt in between the rocks and weeds will grow in it -- and under it, and along side it, and....

[@janinehuntly4259]

Now I have that song stuck in my head 😂

[@herbk98]

Another lovely job, Tim. Ugly to beautiful in 30 minutes and 36 seconds! LOL Watching you mow down that tall grass gave me an idea for a future video... There are gas-powered hedge trimmers with a long shaft and adjustable head angle (relative to the shaft). I think it might be neat to see you use one of those tools to cut down extremely long grass before using a mower or string trimmer, similar to a farmer cutting hay or other crops in the field. Raking it up might be a bigger job than if you had mulched everything with a power mower, but - on the other hand - when you do use the mower, there would have a lot less back and forth on the lawn trying to mulch all of that material and then pick it all up in the grass catcher. It's just an suggestion which you could possibly use in a future video. In any event, this was another beautifully-done lawn restoration and the property looked manicured when you were done. Well Done!
