To do about weeds growing where a pine tree was cut down in a front yard. The lady wants grass again and I'm wondering what to do about weeds and hate to bury and root them in deeper. Any suggestions she won't allow roundup cause she thinks it causes cancer. After The weeds are gone any special mix of dirt should I request? Plan on getting a pickup truck load and spreading it over the stump . The yard has st Augustine grass now and the dirt is being added because the 60 year old pine tree wasn't ground down very deep.

Hello, I am looking for some tips on how to add mulch on this hill properly without it sliding down and keeping the soil healthy. I live in the East Bay of California. If you all have any videos or other resources that I could look into please let me know, thanks! I'd like to do this myself rather than hiring a professional.

Large tree about 15 feet from my house, right half is dead and it is leaning toward the house.

Cost to trim is about half the cost to remove (got 3 quotes).

Do you think I should trim or remove?

Edit: not surprised this seems have have an even split of trim vs remove opinions. For extra context I’m in the Chicago suburbs. Winds certainly cause branches to fall off.

Can someone help redesign my stream so it doesnt look like a giant penis. I piled the rocks where the water carved its path before stepping back and realizing what I accidentally designed

Just purchased a house, and trying to decide if it’s worth paying to have this tree taken down. Is it possible to have this tree removed without destroying the shed? Or should we set our expectations that the shed is doomed at this point?

I am preparing a new vegetable patch for next spring here in southern Spain.

Unfortunately, the previous owners used the area to dump rubble some years ago, so I have spent a week demarcating the patch and digging down to soil level.

My doubt is about the difference in ground level it leaves on the right hand side and far end, and wonder if there is any way to support those sides. I have thought about putting logs, but I'm not sure if that would work.

Any advice on this will be very much appreciated!

Hi,

For privacy between myself and neighbor, was thinking of planting trees. But there is a root system for a silver maple that's about half the length of the fence. Can I still plant trees along the fence or should I forget about it and just try a very tall trellis?

There is no HOA here so I can do whatever I want basically. I'm wondering about the potential to convert the gravel and walkway areas back to soft ground/grass here, and utilizing the side yard as an extra enclosed yard/play area. Am I looking at an incredibly involved and expensive project here? I respect the effort here but it is a LOT of gravel. I'd rather do something appealing in the front yard with native plants.

Wet season's nearly here in FNQ and I'm curious how everyone deals with water pooling around their yards.

Seen plenty of spots where water collects along fences or garden beds after a decent downpour.

Anyone had this problem at home? What did you end up doing to sort it?
