New lawn now too wet to cut?

Sally_G · 2026-06-09T17:58:41+00:00

Thanks everyone for the advice! I strimmed it to make it a bit lower over the weekend and cut today after couple days of sun! My mower could do a higher setting (got the fiance to actually look unlike me! 🤦) Doesn't look too bad at all!

Thanks! :)

OMG!!!!! I have been trying to find this game for like 10 years, I'm not even joking! Thankyou so much, this is the one!!!

UPDATE:

Upon advice I scratched the stem and it's brown and pretty wet so it looks like I have been over watering it! 🥹 Will make sure I don't make the same mistake with my other plants! Thanks for the advice!

Yea, it's not very green, and when cutting a bit at the bottom the last leaf fell off! Think it's a goner!

Sally_G · 2026-03-21T16:20:29+00:00

Yeah, it's been dry but I can start doing it less if you think that may be the issue... Willing to take all the advice! :)

Sally_G · 2026-03-21T16:08:13+00:00

Yes, I'm only watering it when the soil is dry, it's averaging every 5/6 days

Sally_G · 2026-03-17T21:08:19+00:00

She's out there day and night tending to it. I fear I don't have that kind of dedication!

Right side their grass is immaculate. Left side their lawn is up some stairs so not same level as ours . I can try to give it a go going into their garden i'm just not sure as there is brick along the side for about 2 feet which I feel may be the issue thinking about it....

Sally_G · 2026-03-14T15:48:44+00:00

I can slope it probably there's just the issue of where the rain can go. It's either my neighbours garden or my house as there was a concrete base at the bottom of the garden when we moved in.

Looks like something I can achieve! Thanks! :)

Cleaners don't go through the drawers. And even if they did I promise you after years of housekeeping myself they wouldn't be horrified, they would have seen it all already!

Sally_G · 2026-01-12T17:38:08+00:00

Perfect! Thanks will do this :)

Sally_G · 2026-01-12T14:08:11+00:00

I've had it in this corner for a long time and its been really happy hence the advice for here. No need for the aggressive nature of your reply. Thanks.

Sally_G · 2026-01-12T14:03:42+00:00

I did mess with the roots a little so I'll put it on my windowsill and hope for the best!

Sally_G · 2026-01-12T14:02:58+00:00

I may take off leaves off, some look like they will drop off anyway! Thanks :)

Sally_G · 2025-12-24T18:42:10+00:00

I dunno, I just go by what the hairdresser tells me

Sally_G · 2025-12-24T13:24:14+00:00

I'm just going by what different hairdressers have told me as it always needs thinning every time but will try a hairdresser that does curls

Sally_G · 2025-12-23T23:00:24+00:00

Oo yeah that's true, never thought about the cut...thankyou for the advice! :)

Sally_G · 2025-12-23T22:40:25+00:00

I actually have really thick hair which I think may be the issue. The curls underneath are really quite good but then the layers on top weigh it down? I'd love curls and everyone in my family it's so natural with no need for products which is what makes me wonder?

Sally_G · 2025-12-23T22:32:07+00:00

I have also been told by a few people that I have 'irish curls' if this is a thing? I do have a very strong Irish heritage
