Fricking Roomba needs to make a Lawnba, ASAP.


Why, so it can get stuck under the fence, then run out of battery leaving most of the yard uncut?

I would ask what is the reason to weedeat after mowing?
Do you enjoy having the larger grass clippings laying in your freshly mowed yard making it look messy?

Definitely read this as "people who eat weed before mowing"


That takes a while to kick in. But when it does... Your lawn will probably look like shite.

I trim first, then my mower can bag the trimmings as I pass close to the fence/drive/flower beds.


This, let the mower bag the mess from trimming and edging, less cleanup after with the blower.

I edge with my weedeater, then do the weedeating, then mow. By the time I can change attachments to the edger I can be mostly done with the edging and then go straight to weedeater.

My wife does this when she mows. Drives me crazy but what can you do. If I wanted it done right I would do it myself but it's too hot.

I use to hate to hear the old edge my dad use to use.. grinding up against the cement, sparks flying, sometimes the blade would get stuck. It always smelled like gas so between throwing sparks and smelling like gas I just knew one day it would blow up.. Never did.

Does it bother you that much?

You should only care that your neighbors (or their lawn service contractors) do a good job.

Back when I mowed, it was to mulch the weed eater clippings back into the yard with rest of the grass. Then you blow anything left back into the lawn.
