Titanic Yard Overhaul: Colossal Agave OBLITERATED in Garden Rescue!!!
Вставка
- Опубліковано 21 вер 2024
- In this backyard transformation, I have to first make my way through the biggest Agave plant on the planet. This thing was massive. It took me 6 hours of work and 2 trips to the landfill to remove and weight a colossal 1.3 tonnes. Not only that, it gave me a horrible rash on my arms, but nothing some antihistamines couldn't fix. This yard is mostly used by the homeowner for her dogs, and there was dog poo everywhere. Normally, I take the grass away, but there was just too much poo.
All up, I spent around 12 hours on this job, including 3 trips to the landfill. This is part 3 of 3.

FAQ's:
Q: Where are you located?
A: I am from Hobart, Tasmania, Australia 🦘.
Q: Do you worry about snakes?
A: I have never even seen a snake in over 5 years on the job.
Q: Which equipment do you use?
A: Mostly STIHL power equipment (battery and petrol) and commercial Honda self-propelled mowers.
Q: How much do the jobs cost?
A: Sorry, I prefer not to talk about costs.
Q: Why don't you use tarps instead of bins?
A: Tarps are too difficult to move through small spaces and lift into the trailer. The same for wheelbarrows, they are only good for unloading the trailer!
Q: Why are the hot water cylinders outside?
A: I would say it's because Australia had a temperate to tropical climate, and therefore it doesn't matter that much if they are outdoors. To me, though, it seems a bit inefficient to have them outside in Tasmania with a temperate climate (coldish for 3 - 4 months per year). But that is industry standard down here 🤷♂️
Q: Why don't you have help?
A: I've had many problems with employees in the past, so now I work alone.
Q: Why don't you have a ride-on mower?
A: Well, there are a few reasons.
1. I don't have the right trailer for a ride on, considering I always take away the green waste.
2. I don't have anywhere to store it, as my shed is too small.
3. A lot of the properties we do have fences and gates, so you can't actually get a ride-on on to the properties.
4. I don't do enough big jobs to justify spending 15k AUD on a stander, but it would be nice to have one!
5. I will get one as soon as my transport and storage problems are solved.
Q: What types of ladders do you use?
A: The large one is a Gorilla Adjustable Platform 150kg and the small one is a Gorilla Mighty 19. They are both adjustable.
Q: Who/what is Jim's Mowing?
A: Jim's Mowing is a franchise business. The Jim's Group is the biggest home services franchise in Australia.
Q: Why do you have 2 channels that seem to be the same?
A: Quick Cuts (my original channel) has music in the background. Quick Cuts V2 is for those that like just machine noise, and it doesn't have music.

That Agave plant looks like something out of “Little Shop of Horrors”. Kudos for tackling it and not getting eaten in the process❤❤
R Adams family
That’s what I was thinking at the beginning of the video. That thing is massive..
Feed Me😂
You beat me to it! "Feed me, Seymore!"
It's the TRULY HARD jobs like this one that sets George apart from other lawn care providers. It's why he's in a league of his own. Nice Job as always buddy!.
🙂🙋♂️
Yep so true he is the best ❤❤😊😊
I totally agree!! He's amazing and committed. His work is a reflection of who he is.
I agree
Second time watching. That plant was HUGE! ♥️👍
I didn't understand just how big the agave was until you stood beside it. Massive! Taking on jobs like this for free is what puts you head and shoulders above other lawn care guys. Brilliant work, George.
Same!
So utterly true!!!
George is the "lifeboat" in this titanic rescue, no water involved, just probably calamine lotion and benadryl. Waders needed for the "ocean" of animal droppings. George is a true hero! God Bless you George!😊💛
Those of us watching this series are truly in awe of your work ethic !!! I’d be interested to know the home owners reaction 😊
She was pretty thankful and so were the neighbours hahaha
@@QuickCuts Yeah, I saw the Neighbors in the first video watching from across the street scratching their heads and looking at each other thinking you were nuts tackling such an over-the-top crazy job I assume as I'm sure they were also thankful. Good job George and I look forward to your next adventure.
The neighbor next door was also watching from the porch with a look of, I can't believe it!@@justine8398
📣Sii nos encantaría ver la reacción de los dueños!!🙏 Siempre lo decimos con mi marido saludos desde Argentina ❤🇦🇷🍀✨
This one job increased the property values in the entire neighborhood.
Watching George tackle this jungle certainly inspires me to take action on the leaves congregating in the corner with my wood pile and the honeysuckle vines threatening to devour my fence. George is truly a superstar!
That plant must have been full of water and HEAVY! omg. Cray cray! It's a shame she can't take care of that yard, it has a lot of potential. Maybe she will sell it and get something with a much smaller, more manageable yard. Bravo for taking this on! This is one for your record book, I bet! ❤❤❤❤❤
I have been looking forward to part 3. I'm so sorry about the allergic reaction you got. I know those are miserable. This was a lot of cleanup, I'm surprised that is all you got. You are doing an excellent job.
How do you eat an Agave? One bite at a time. Then have to endure the smell of dog crap while you fight the monster. Your the best.
George, getting a painful rash from the Agare plant was bad enough. But I'm glad you were able to clean the whole property in three parts without getting injured. 🎉🏆🥰🎉
It was itchy hahaha
Hi George, I can’t imagine what you went through getting this job done… all this dirt and poop … the smell… she should have collected the dog poo before hand!!! It makes me angry that you have been exposed to this! Don’t let yourself talk into a job like that again please 🙏🏽!!
But you still did a great, super job 👍👍👍( considering…)
Take care George 👋☀️☀️☀️
Yes that's what l said l hope he doesn't take another job this huge. It's too much!!! Let the other professionals do it
Agreed. This agave is a monster that had small ones growing at its base.
If he worked with the strong Kosturez (though he is in Germany) they would have dug together, got it at the roots after its so many “tentacles” were removed by George.
Good grief, George!!! That plant looked like it wanted to gobble you up alive!! 😂😂 You are quite the patient, generous person to do this for this lady!! What a gift you have. Thanks for sharing your awesome videos 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
You did it George, I had no doubt that you would make it, but please my friend don't ever take job like this again, with all due respect, but you're not a garbage man.
Anyway you made one life better.... actually you made the doggies happy too, not just that lady !
Cheers! 💙🏆🏅
Oh my word, George. Talk about biting off more than you can chew, lol, one agave plant nearly finished you. Of course you aren’t going to cleaning up dog poop, it would be infected with all sorts of things, if the dog(s) haven’t been wormed etc. You are so thorough taking on these clearances, it’s a wonder you don’t throw in the towel. After all that, George, you do awesome work, I think you’re a bit like my hubby, it’s got to be done correctly, no half measures, God Bless your kind heart, you have helped another person in dire straits, Rosemary aka Ollie from Victoria ❤️🤗👍
I agree that dog poop is not a good thing to be around. To be honest with you George I think you should have had the homeowner pick up the dog poop herself. You went over the top on this one.
No not the Agave plant. It is the only neat looking thing on the property except mountains in the distance. Bless you George! Love watching you, such a perfectionist.
After seeing this colossal job and how well you tackled it, despite all the health hazards you faced, you deserve not only a medal but a million subscribers! Holy moly, that agave! A specimen that size would be worthy of a botanical garden (in my part of the world at least 😊). You have my respect, George! Wow 😮 🇨🇦
I was thinking the same thing. Here in the USA that Agave would go for thousands.
George great end to a series. I had dogs , you have to be at your yard daily. I bet when it rains that covered porch area was horrible. I hope the owner has made arrangements for help with her animals and the yard.
You provide an amazing service to those in need, now she must just maintain.
Yes I think that is Agave. I have never seen one that big here in the states. GREAT JOB !!!!!!!
You are amazing George. So much energy, and you are tidy, and work like an energizer bunny. And you do all this work for free. Wow! Just Wow!
I commend you George and you are appreciated.
Well said Peggy! George never quits! He is a beacon of light encouraging us all!
You can clearly see this was once a beautiful loved garden, saying well done definitely isnt enough, ive just finished watching all 3 episodes. they were EPIC!!
Hi George, That job was terrible but you went above and beyond. I felt sick just looking at it. Hope you are feeling better now. Never do that again.
Looking forward to seeing you next time From Queensland ❤
🤗🙋♂️
@@QuickCuts 👋
She should sell her house, move into assisted living, and get rid of the moocher. Otherwise, this property will go right back to the way it was before. Awesome job, as usual!
One wonders about the interior as well...
❤ George, I am new to your channel. I watched all 3 videos of this difficult job. What stands out to me is your willingness and kindness to help someone. And your amazing work 🎉. You have your own style which I like ‼️ And, last but not least, I watch with the music on! Thank you 🙏 🙏💕👳🏻♀️🇺🇸
George - you are AMAZING!! What a generous gift that was.
And I must say I love watching your shovel-to-bin action - you never miss!
Thank you for showing kindness to others
I was been watching this videos since I'd noticed you two been together working,stop for chatting while on break, you guys have goods laugh 😉.i love that which its gets me when i need it thru the day- humors. she's cancer survivor mind you all! Gives rhem what they need refreshments while people thinks their way not lawn carrier.god bless them Casey and Trish!
You’ve done amazing on the first 2 looking forward to today’s 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Hi Mr G , I have just finished watching a 3 part episode and I am in awe of your work, your kindness towards those that are more unfortunate. You would be my first nominee in the Lawn mowing Hall of Fame cheers for the great vidz. NZ 😊😊😊
George you have a lot of patience and determination….what a change… the owner can now walk around the backyard……great job
Top job bloke! You are amazing and I'm grateful that you are helping those people in Hobart who need that little extra service. A service you provide with such great kindness. Thank you.🥰🥰
That agave was something else! You could see the sap and pulp spraying out as it was being cut, and the sap contains oxalates so not fun. Had no doubt that you'd transform her outdoor area back into a yard (garden to us UK folk 😉) and as always it was a pleasure to watch.
I will always tell you George that you always deliver, which you do. Your ends results are always fantastic.
I just had to put my two cents in again about how disgusting this owner let this place get so run down and then ask for help cause she's had it rough as well as having health. I know of a lot of people who have heaps of problems in their lives, but they still manage. Even my next door neighbor has had it not so good. She lost her husband 4 years ago. She's just turned 92 and yet she still manages to keep her house as well as her grounds and garden clean and tidy without any help. And the gardens are not small.
So as I have always told you George, you always amaze me on your finishing results. Well done to you George.
George you did a bloody marvelous job with this one. Looks good now. I bet you're glad this one is done! Have a good week.
😊
😊Good Morning George
l don't know how you kept the courage to do the 3rd part of this clean up. When you said there was dog poo every where It would have turned my stomach. You deserve goodness and mercy for your reward and $$$$$ too😊
Thanks for the big heart you have to do all of it for someone in need.. God bless you
Amazing clean up! Well done! (As someone else stated, you deserve a medal for the jobs you've tackled!) Always impressed by your hard work and dedication! Thank you for making the world a better place!
Now that look like hard work.Congratulations on a job.Well done cheese.And thanks for sharing.See you on the next one
Myrecord
Your a brave man to tackle that garden. Love your videos.😊
Really like your channel. I like how you go the extra mile to fix people's steps, fences and gates when possible. That sets you apart from the rest.
Wow! That was a lot of work! And a rash. That’s what happens when you put some skin in the game. Hehehe. You have to be one of the hardest working men out there. Thank you for letting us tag along as you.
Holy moly! That’s one gigantic succulent. Crazy job. You did wonderful! Sorry about the rash.
Great job, George! That plant was crazy. 👍
Mighty George, pardon me but can i say that you're the greatest, topnotch and positively lawn carer "detail geek"! You're ten steps ahead of all the others! ☝️👍👏❤️🫡😊
Dear George, greetings from Germany to you and your family, I have my Sunday morning appointment with your channel 👍 How many buckets 🪣😅😅 it’s awesome what you did for the lady. Hope you have a nice evening today and I will be here next week 😘🌞🍀💪
Ты самый лучший Джордж!!! Такую работу не каждый возьмётся делать! АГАВА....тихий ужас.... Матерь Божья! Она наверное снится тебе будет... И да Джордж, твой контент действительно на 1 месте в ютубе. Никто так тщательно не убирает двор, как ты. Ты не только стрижешь газон и приводишь в порядок кусты и деревья, но и что то ремонтируешь, сматываешь шланги, ещё и все предметы во дворе складываешь аккуратно! Я да и не только я, но и многие твои подписчики оставляем ссылки на твой канал. У тебя все будет отлично Джордж! Я могу поспорить на чупа чупс, что к концу года у тебя будет 500 тысяч подписчиков😊 Музыка 🎶🎼🎶 супер!!!! Монтаж, редактирование, обработка это высший класс!!!! Ты умничка Джордж!!!! С уважением и восхищением к тебе и твоей работе Елена 🤗😘🫶🕊️.
Lol, well, time will tell 😘
@@QuickCuts 😉😘
Елена а вы умеете вдохновлять людей😊
@@АринаМакоева-р3ь 🤗
I look forward to your videos!
Always informative, entertaining and spot on!
Thank you George!
😎👍
OMG, that agave was a monster, bet your glad that job is over George. It was Epic, Fun to see the amazing before and after! Love your work.! Congrats
That plant is a monster! I thought it was going to try to eat you at any moment. But you conquered! Great job - truly amazing.
New subscriber here from Tasmania. Kudos to you for taking on such a huge job for free.
There is a duty of care here for the relevant authorities to get notified so the dear lady can be assessed through My Aged Care for subsidised gardening and home help through our government. If she is disabled it is strange that this hasn’t already been done.
Perhaps it has already been flagged and was above what the gardeners in this scheme were capable of. Now you have well and truly tamed the garden perhaps it’s time for them to step in and keep it looking nice.
George, these 3 episodes have become like Godfather series and we can revisit them multiple times 😤
You did a terrific job on this property!
That was alot of work I couldn’t believe all the mess!
That is one of the biggest agave plant I’ve ever seen in my life.
I hope the rash it gave you is better now!
I’ll say you’re a hard worker! Love the musics you put on here very good
What a fine job you do sir. You pick up all the tires, mattresses, debris, rake and mend fences. I watch your videos through their entirety. Keep up the good work. How I wished you could do my yard, lol.
Nice of you to help this person, i enjoyed the whole property cleanup, except for the agave removal. You film things well and set a nice pace in your videos. 😊
You deserve a medal for this one. Wow!!!!
George great job ❤❤❤
At one point I didn't know whether I was looking a gardening video or an archeological one!!! 🤔🤔🤔 George, you found a footpath where there was none 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 Well done and hope you recovered from your rush. From Lérida, Spain
Well who knew there were steps into the various terraces. Awesome job sir, applause and kudos well deserved go to you.
A walk and steps, George was an archeologist on this project.
George, what a transformation. I never knew there was a path leading to the backyard. Your video shows the challenge you faced with the slope, which doesn’t always come across on video. I think I would’ve woke up each morning with a pregnant sigh dreading going back to do another day. You persevered and brought us along. You are a very good man.
George you need a medal for all that you have done to this house It looks brilliant your a true professional. Top marks for you every time God bless you. 😊😊😊😊
Dog poo!! Noooooo! Oh George..... you must have said to yourself more than once, "What in the world am I doing??" Doing a job NO ONE else would do. You're a good man George and an inspiration. Half way across the world... if I am having a bad time, watching you work is just the tonic. You get 'stuck in' and get the job done and more besides. Thank you. ❤
WOW, George, Yep ! You're an Angel. So Sad an maddening to see yards in those conditions. Great Videos. Be Safe❤😊
Не представляла, что это растение, похожее на Медузу Горгону может достигнуть таких огромных размеров. Вы справились с колоссальной работой, моё уважение🤝
You are a marvelous man to clean up this yard, I wouldn't like to see inside of house, God Bless ❤ 🏴 🇨🇦
That agave is like the kraken! -Unbelievable unless you saw it! I think it was also beautiful, but it needed to go. -I feel sure it was just too much for this homeowner. I imagine there is a record for these sort of things - would be interesting to know where this one sized-up! lol.
I saw a hand tool the other day like the one you use 1/2 claw 1/2 hoe/hatchet - I bought it! IDK if I'll use it very much but it made me think of yours!
I kept waiting to see where the steps were for access to the upper yard - and OMG you found them! Not anywhere I would've thought. Now the property makes sense - a person could be proud of that yard, once you had finished! But that was a lot of up and down!
Thanks for all your hard work and letting us watch - you're the best!
Great job. You were able to do so more than I thought you would given the intro!
Wow George that plant looks like something from Jurassic Park great job as always 😀
That Agave plant should have its own movie title…Attack of the Agave plant…..but as always George Excellent work and great job 👏!😊
I have never seen one of those so BIG!! I was afraid it would eat you! 🤣😂🤣 I went back and watched Part 1 and 2 again before watching this one. WOW George you did a lot of labor intensive work here. Just after Part 1 the place looked soooo much better. Bet the neighbors loved that! Part 2 I could not believe how much trash you took out. But it happens when someone becomes disabled and goes into depression because of it. You are a very good man. The whole place looks so much nicer and opened up. When you dug out the walkway I had to laugh because in the whole of Part 2 I was trying to figure out how on earth you got into the back garden without standing on something LOL Now all she needs is someone to come and clean up all the dog poop on a regular basis for her. Wonderful job George. Hope this finds you all healed up from the rash attack of the Agave plant 😁 See you next kiddo!
That job was brutal! Amazing job George 👏👏👏👏👏👏
Did the sap from the Agave plant and the dog poo ruin your equipment? You’re so kind to do this horrible job. Not many would touch it!
Wow!!!! That Agave was a nightmare, (poor you).. Almost made it worse than part 1. If the homeowner has two dogs and the yard smelled of dog poo, then I can see why you used the weed eater to level the lawn. Too bad it couldn't be mowed as that would have made the end results so much better. Still in all, considering all you did, the end result was a super human task and it is 100% better than it was. Kudos and props to you.
Really enjoyed watching you trim that huge agave plant!
George, this was a hazmat job if ever there was! Trash on the patio, dog poo on the yard!😮 the owner owes you not only eternal gratitude but a gift certificate to a nice restaurant for a wonderful meal! I hope the rash cleared up. You take care. BTW, my neighbor and I are watching an agave plant in front of her yard that will be blooming soon, but this variety will die after it blooms!
Congratulations, it was very hard work, especially because of the lot of garbage!
I have NEVER seen one that size before! What a monster!
Truly a monster, but call me crazy thought it was pretty. Can’t grow them this big in north east US. Impressive cleanup
Look at that! I seriously underestimated the work load on that plot when I saw the first look around video 😀 You are a machine!! 💪🏻
😳😳😳😲😲😲!!!!!! Gigantor Agave Plant. Crazy!! Even though you clearly suffered the consequences of wrangling with that monster, the video was so gratifying to watch. Cool music 👏👏👏😁.
I have seen so many of these Lawn makeovers, there is no one who does the job so nicely like you, with picking up the grass that you cut , all the junks and clean up the mess, I always pray that God Blesses you with so much love and happiness. You’re a true blessing to all the people you help. Here in America they cut grass and leaves for mulching and not clean and tidy as you do. I stopped watching them , I have my two favorite channels and one you, the other is Blade Mate Lawn, Kudos to you both.❤
Wow 😮 amazing transformation! I like what you did there with the laddice screens. It gave the backyard an uplift aswell as you. Well done 👍 😊
That "agave" reminded me of the spider plants we used to have when I was little, only beyond "on steroids" into Frankenstein level. For some reason an actual ton of waste doesn't seem unreasonable given the size of that monster. My respect to you, sir.
This is an incredible end to this property series! 👍👍👏👏💪💪❤
Hey Michele, thank you 🤗🥰
One he'll of a job, but you did an amazing job with that place, way better than it was , a lot of hard work for you. ❤
Fantastic job! I have to say, I was looking forward to seeing that agave cut down to the ground! You worked so hard on it!!
Excellent work sir, you always make a difference in those yards, satisfying!
Wow! You are so brave and determined. You truly have my admiration for this one. I hope you didn't get anything worse than a transient allergy. Well done.
Wow! What fortitude you have for taking that job on and for finishing. Bravo!
Hi George!! I just love you!! You are so wonderful! That was a BIG job! You get all the details done too! You take care of yourself.❤
This is an amazing transformation! You are so kind. You went above and beyond for the home owner.
Wow what a massive plant but you got it done the property looks amazing,you worked hard on this one and it differently looks way better.Thanks for the entertainment George 😊
I feel for ya George. I'm sure your body is crying. The plant was no joke! Looks very heavy. Toss cucumber, aloe agave, zucchini 😅
Ya forget the poo the rest looks smashing. ❤
What a herculean task!! I rarely comment, but want you to know that you provide this ole' lady hours of enjoyment. Your attention to detail is so admired! You always give people the benefit of the doubt...such kindness. One thing I've learned in 80 years is that you can never see into another's life. You, George, are such a good role model! Thank you.
❤ Yes, I agree. I am 83 and just don’t judge, even if disdainful, have some compassion. Or better, offer to help 🥰🙏
Hi George!!! Saludos desde Argentina. Mi jardin necesita orden pero es un lujo al lado del trabajo ENORME que hiciste aqui. Sos de primer nivel. Increible lo que has trabajado. Mereces una propina importante. 😊
Yes. Morning George. That is an Agave plant and they are the worst to remove. Good job as always.
will it come back?
Omg!!! Fabulous cleanup job! The house and yard look 1000% better. I hope everyone appreciates your hard work 😊
When life gives you agave, make tequila! 6 hours, just for that?? My gosh! Beautiful job with everything, George!!! 💚💚💚
You truly are a remarkable man George, for taking on this massive task of a job for this lady.
You have outdone yourself in every area you completed it to its fullest, fantastic work 👏
Watching you tackle that big plant bloody he’ll, it was exhausting and I felt your pain doing all that hard work..
Estaba ansiosa por ver este último capítulo, definitivamente esta casa ha sido de las transformaciones más titánicas que has hecho , y te juro que los he disfrutado minuto a minuto 😅, estubo increíble, que gran labor, y como siempre has cuidado hasta el último detalle😊👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 felicidades, un abrazo desde México 🇲🇽❤
That agave plant! Wow! I’m glad you cut it down before it kept growing and took over the world. :)
Man this lawn was alot of hardworking it's about a 2500. dollar job great job George.
Hi George, You did an Amazing job my friend. I honestly havent seen an Agave plant that big. I knew i keep mine in pots for a reason..lol Im sorry you got a rash from it..George did you see the dogs, Im sure they are also thanking you for giving them a yard to run around in.. I hope you had a nice rest over the weekend, ready for more for us to enjoy. Im so glad you decided to stay here, doing what you do best. Stay Safe from your neighbour. Looks like we might have some rain on the way. ❤️🙏👍🚿🍻🤗
That was beautifully transformed George. You did an amazing job. Unbelievable. Awesome to see. 👍👍👍
Jaaaaaysus you could run a tequila distillery for a year with that plant. Solid video, George! Keep up the fantastic work!
George, you are remarkably the most talented landscaper I’ve seen. For your own safety and health, next time promise ,,,,,you will wear a mask to protect your body. Blessings from Blaine, Washington USA
