![HOW TO GET A PERFECT SIDEWALK EDGE EVERY TIME [TRIMMER VS EDGER!]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/OJm4dn23qlk/mqdefault.jpg)
Is it weird that I just went from 6 to midnight?
It's only weird if you make it weird!
Favorite comment I've ever gotten by the way
The Lawn Whisperer first time getting pinned...lots of positive things happening here!
@@TinoCampisi 😎
It’d be weird if you didn’t.
Ok the “that’s what she said” and facial expressions about your neighbor were what did it for me. 😂 Subscribed.
Same. Lol
Me too
Same 😂😂
Same lol
He needs to make a colab with the neighbor!
Another way to use the hose to lay out your area is to set it how you want it to look and then leave the hose there for a couple days. When you remove the hose, the grass underneath will give you a natural yellowed line from where the hose kept the sun from getting to the grass and you won't have the hose in you way when you start your edging.
yeah, great idea, and you won't cut up your hose in the process.
Awesome idea. Now if I can get our squirrel families to buy into NOT moving the hose, it just might work. LOL!!! Really. Great suggestion :-) Thank you.
Lol, love it!
Great thank you so much, save me 16 Cad to buy a paint marker
@@bobcaygeon6799 Maybe use garden staples to keep the hose in place?
I love that you keep it 💯 with your neighbor interrupting 👍🏽
I hit Like when you flashed, "Don't flop your hose around in public." A little humour goes a long, long way. 😎
I like your neighbor. He seems friendly.
The interaction between your neighbor had me ROTFLOL. 😂
Girl it had me in stitches 😂🤣
It seemed awfully rude.
@@YSLRD that's because you have zero context
You had me at that's what she said - but seriously thank you for this, my husband and I bought a house with a garden after years of renting apartments, he is deployed and I have no clue what to do with the lawn. Going to binge your channel!
Nice job on the video. Tip - Use your steel blade sidewalk edger/trimmer to keep your beds looking sharp/crispy and you will notice no browning from the string trimmer and you can get close to the flowers without cutting a single bloom. Nice turf you have there!
You had me at “that’s what she said”. 😂
Same! 🤣 I subscribed too.
Me too
Me 3.. thats what made me laugh then like the vid... then later subscribe when he mentioned that he will show how to upkeep it too. LawnWhisperer.. You are the MF BOMB!!!
Got my attention!
I subscribed!
Love it ! I use that line all the time 😂
I like how the kid's just swinging away while Dad digs.
I was thinking how most kids would have been interrupting Dad every 2 minutes and getting in the way but this kid was just happily swinging the whole time.
Time has passed. I wonder if they still use that swing. Bittersweet. 🌸
"Thats what she said" caused a belly laugh. So random!😂
Make some grass shirts with all your catch-phrases on them. "So fresh" "So crafty" haha
Had no idea until now. I've always wonder how other people have their edges looks so nice and sharp. This is going to be my go to. I love that the video is brief and to the point with tones of useful tips, thank you 👍
Recently did this to my front yard mulch bed. Looks super clean and professional. Trying to get a perfect circle around my trees was difficult, but I found use of a string with one end loosely tied to the half moon tool and the other side to the tree have me a consistent circle.
Great idea!
@@missmonasuzette edger trimmer blind
oh wow what a fantastic idea!
Gotta be from Midwest with that humor. Old neighbor wants to be friends. How sweet !
That’s what I thought
Love the content. It’s real life, so if a neighbor pops in, that keeps it real too. Loved it. Thanks
Thanks for watching!
I do this every year and wet the edge before doing it. It makes for an even cleaner look.
"Don't flop your hose out in public." That made my day.
That’s what she said.
Thank you señor lawn whisperer… everything looks legit 👀😳😜😜if I see someone working in sandals 🩴 I simply don’t trust them… great werk… I will continue following your channel for more amazing tips and videos …Gracias!!!!
Thank you so much. Simple. I am a novice. I am off to buy my shovels and try it. I just purchsed my weed eater. This is so helpful.
This was a great video! Your face was priceless after you spoke to your neighbor. Lol
Totally agree 😂😂😂
Definitely priceless!
The look you gave your neighbor PRICELESS!! Thank you for your video. I'm working on my flower bed this weekend and will use your tips!!
This process is much cheaper than buying rocks and plastic etc., plus it looks neater. Thank you for posting.
Hahahaha. Loved the chit chat with the neighbor 🤣😅
“Ya taking pictures” 🤣
Ha, "ya out taking pictures?!?" LOL Edges looking crispy!
priceless!!
Gotta love neighbors HAHA
Haha. I watched that part over and over.
Agree with all you say! Please come and live with me for my garden.
I wish I had a friendly neighbor like yours!
Love that look on your face when talking to your neighbor! lol
That was amazing! I have been edging for years trying to get that crisp look but didn't know what I was doing wrong. Great explanations.You are the Bomb!
Thank you so much.
Your lawn is beautiful! I'm learning, thank you! ❤ your reaction to the neighbor😂.
I followed three lawn guys on the tube and I must say, your videos are the best for the way you describe in detail of lawn care. Also the good jokes.
Lawn looks awesome -- thanks! Your straight-forward easy-going manner is clear to understand, and quick tips (without a full background explanation) make it easy to stick with the video. I was only going to watch a few minutes to get the gist, but the added humor and unplanned cameos by the neighbor and your daughter keeping it real kept me watching. Neighbors always have a comment, and the kids and pets always end up under foot. Just had to subscribe.
Best video demonstration on how to do this that I've seen so far!! Been trying to get my edge to look like that, but can never get it straight & crisp. Wil be purchasing a half moon edge tool today! Thx!👍
idk why the neighbor cameo is so hilarious, but it is
Thank you! Glad someone finds humor in it 😂
I eye balled all my gardens. I like the curves because it looks more natural.
Thank you for explaining this so simply. You’ve given me the courage to remove my metal edging and do this instead!
I just finished edging my bed using this technique. It was just as easy as it appears in your video. Thanks!
I immediately hit the thumbs up when he said, that’s what she said
oh yeah!!!
Thanks for share I’m new in this country and I need to learn how protect and maintain my lawn and your make it easier for me.
I really appreciate your time and I’m so glad to found your channel.
Wow. Love this. I have been edging my beds for years. I'm going to be able to fine tune them a bit after watching your tips. Thanks.
I was so happy to find this video as I was trying to find out how to do edging in my flower gardens! Thank you! ☺️🌺🌳 Neighbor shot was hilarious! 😂
His neighbor is super friendly. You have a to meet a couple humbugs to appreciate that 😂
Your daughter really likes that swing
Thanks my friend! Your neighbor though! How clueless is he 😂😂😂
Every other video I have seen makes it look kinda hard and I was thinking about paying someone...... Then I can across you. Now you got me thinking I'm a pro.... Thank You!!!!
Thanks a lot. Have done this myself but it’s never as clean and crisp looking. Thanks for the tips. Half moon edger is next yard tool I’ll be buying.
I just told my husband I would like him to do this for all my planting beds. All 300 feet of planting beds. 😂 He hates the Lawn Whisperer now.
what a sweet neighbor you have- "love thy neighbor as thy self" he seems like he should be easy to love!
He’s not my neighbor but he’s a nice guy! I just didn’t like getting caught talking to the camera
I was watching so intently..then the line "that's what she said".. caught me totally off guard. Had to back up the video. 🤣
Great content👍
I love it haha
A one eyed gardener once advised me to wear goggles when using a strimmer! Excellent video btw.
Looks great there's nothing better than a nice crispy Edge
LOL! Thank you for the "That's what she said!" remark! I cannot resist them either when the moment arises!
Got my updoot for your "that's what she said" comment.
Your lawn looks great!
I just picture you sitting in your kitchen eating breakfast and your neighbour looks in your window and says what are you eating something?
As a newbie, I'm VERY appreciative of your specific instructions. Like weed whacking in one direction, and wiggling the half moon edger side to side. SUPER clear video - thank you!
No way your neighbor didn’t know. Love the skit. 😂
“Don’t flop your hose out in public.”
Good advice, that.
Just did my beds the exact same way. I saw your edging in previous videos and loved it. Needless to say, I love my new beds. Thank you
Sweet! I'm glad to hear that!
It looks great bro thanks for taking your time and teachIng it step by step
Stumbled on your UA-cam channel...who would of thought edging beds would get my attention. I need to get one of those ½ moon edgers. Love the channel you got me. Thanks.
You should give lessons to other "How To" UA-camrs. You get right to it, no Uhs, or Ums. You know your stuff and you can communicate it in such an efficient manner. You are quick & efficient as you are explaining what you're doing & why. I am amazed that I can cut out my own berm & make it as big our as small as I want it & do it efficient & professionally. Thank you young man. I usually start out with the person teaching and then I'm so bored with all the wasted time due to their own lack of know-how in communicating until usually for me, its's "I'm Out!" You passed the test in knowledge & efficient communication. Getting my half moon implement tomorrow and I'm going to work. THANK YOU! +Remember Mr George Floyd+
Thank you!!
"Fentanyl Floyd"
OMG! What’s with the George Floyd crap?🙈🙈🙈
Thanks for sharing. A great way to determine the line is to have the grass long then use the lawn mower to outline the curves. This way the
lawn cutting will be smooth and easy too. Before cutting the rest of the lawn use the edge cutter to dig in as you illustrated. Using flour also is a great way to determine the line.
Landscape shovel is the tool of choice.
“Hide-ho! neighbor Wilson!” Neighbors...gotta love them. 🤦🏻♀️ Great video. I bought an edger but have been using it incorrectly. Thank you for this tutorial! Great job, beautiful lawn!
"All I'm doing here is flopping my hose out" Yeah... perfect wording I died lol
If you don't like to use spray paint because it is hard to fix, here is what an old friend taught me. Buy one of those ketchup squirt bottles, like you see in restaurants or hot dog stands, and fill it halfway with flour. Since they have skinny tips, you can aim and draw nice lines in the grass just by squeezing. If you don't like how it turns out, and want to try again, spray the line with your hose and it's gone. Enjoy!
I dont like to use spray paint because it's much easier and in my opinion more effective to use a hose. Just my opinion.
Why not just use ketchup 😂😂🤣😅🙈
I had to rewind after I heard “that’s what she said” 😂
Love the look of it. It simple do create that look as I am a beginner in lawn caring. I just purchased my new house, during Corona pandemic. More opportunities during this crisis, LET’S GET IT. 🔥👏🏾
Looks really nice and clean, I’m going to use your method tomorrow!!! My neighbors and I are always trying to outdo one another when it comes to yard work!! Just friendly encouraging competition!!!😀
Mine do not. I had someone who is NOT a yard person at all (they pay to have theirs mowed) stop by yesterday and was like, "Wow! You can see a clear line where your property line is at. Your side is so green!"
Lol North America is weird.
Just enjoy your lawn/gardens and don't worry about what your neighbors think.
I’m getting ready to redo my mulch beds this week, but I’m using pavers. I love how you used the hose to lay out your design. Great video, as always!
The girl on the swing n fast forward was hilarious 😂
Your reaction to the neighbour interaction got the thumbs up and the subscription. Thanks for showing us your technique.
I subscribed at “that’s what she said” 🤣🤣🤣 your neighbor cracked me up
😂
Same here! I was cackling before then when he whipped his hose out.
Terreece Clarke I came for the lawn tips and am staying for the comedic value. Plus the tips. 🤣
@@ashleykessler5003 just the tips? 😎
The Lawn Whisperer just for a little bit.
that's how u get the V! I have used the moon edger for past 5 years and never got that crisp look thank you very much.
Gosh I’m so glad I found your channel! You keep it REAL and SIMPLE! I’ve learned so much from you in the past few hrs. Watched every video..a big Thank you!
I needed this video so badly! Thank you it really helped me to achieve my lawn goals.
Absolutely meticulous! There is nothing that sets off a lawn and bed more than excellent edging. Great job! Wish you were my neighbour, everyone on your street must try to keep up with your lawn care and they probably all have nice yards! :)
☀️ Your neighbor stole the show!! 😂🤣 I need to go find my Corona bed edger tomorrow and get to work! 🤩. Great video!
Get to work man!!! Thank you!
Your beds and your grass look great. Wish you were my lawn care guy.
Thank u! We have that half moon tool, but obviously didn’t know how to use it properly and go back around another time like you showed in the video. I have a whole yard to do with brand new mulch beds everywhere so this will help it look really sharp. Thanks again.
“That’s what she said!” I love it! 😋
Just placed an ad. "Looking for a halfmoon edged certified lawn guy...must not dig out dirt first round" 🤣
I agree that the natural edge looks the best! I've been changing over to the natural edge with my yard little by little.
I almost spit my cereal out when you said that's what she said. Lol
So strange that your neighbor doesn’t know you have a utube channel. Neighbors just aren’t as nosy as ours were back in the ‘70’s😂😂😂
When your neighbor pulled up and your facial expression was EVERYTHING....LMAO :-) :-)
so unnecessary tho
@@husher5142 I think it was uncalled for as well
I take it you and your neighbor are the best of friends 😂
I like your process. I'm a 76 yr old lady who does this stuff by myself. After I edged the bed using your process, I line the area with plastic and put red crushed brick on top of the plastic. I left round holes for hosta plants and a couple bushes. Weeds don't creep in, mowing is easy, not much to do with weed trimmer. Weeds and stony, clay, hard pack soil is what we have upstate NY. So we need to find easy ways to keep lawns pretty with less toil.
Funny, I did this 20 years ago when I created my mulch beds in my then new house ... hose, half-moon edger, seemed like a good way to do it. Do have to be careful though, you could inadvertently nick the hose.
Dont want to nick the hose!! 😏
That'swhatshesaid
Second, the faces you made when your neighbor pulled up was priceless. 😂
😂😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

AWESOME video! Love the time-lapse, humor & cute kiddo! Easy steps I can remember LOL! Thanks a bunch!!
Great video I would suggest laying plastic down when throwing the grass makes for a easy clean up you can pour the clippings and debris into a lawn bag right after
Looks nice but you are much younger, and got a hell of more energy that I have! Give me a Stihl gas power edger, and get my old ass in the house A/C as soon as heavenly possible!!
Subscribed after the "that's what she said" comment.
Loved this and can't wait to go get a half moon edger. I'm learning to take care of my lawn and so glad I stumbled upon this video
Nothing better than an elbow grease. Good stuff man!
Heck yeah!!!
"WHUTCHA DOIN TAKING PICTURES?? " # dead LOL (I subscribed)
“You’re out taking pictures?” 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 Im dead!!!!
I was just about to buy a pallet full of paver edgers, but you have changed my mind. I'm going to try your technique instead. Thanks for the tips.
