I have a 50x15 foot lawn which in my mind is just wasted ground. My garden is one third veg patch and two thirds lawn.
Given that my hip is now officially k*******d, what would be the easiest way of going about conversion? Should I use a turf cutter thingy and then rotovate? If so, what would I do with the turf, isn't it good to rot it down somehow?
Over to you, oh wise ones.

yes thats the right way to do it,stack it all on a pile then in a year or 2 it will be loam

option 1 dont bother get some line and a tape measure n some pegs a sprayer a dollop of roundup . mark it out neatly spray wait n have help to dig the edges out then rotavate the lot . les werk sooner ready waiting time ... 3 weeks .option 2 taking up grass a day or 2 with a knacked hip . loads sweat rotavate n then wait to put back loam from original lawn 2 yrs ..... :wink:

I like the way you think muntjac. Always take the line of least resistance. Roundup it is. Then get a little man in to rotovate.

question .what was the rotavator he used ?
-
