Hello HV and welcome back to the home of all things growable (and not).

I hope you enjoy catching up with all the threads that interest you.

Hi H&V and welcome back from a fellow northerner!

Have you considered artificial grass? We had similar problems in our current garden and the artificial grass was the best thing we ever did. Not ridiculously expensive either

[Jungle Jane]

Thats a point,thankyou I'm planning a new area now & I've got some edging. An edged path of bark would look really neat next to the grass,I'm starting soon (after this cup of tea) before I change my mind again.

[bearded bloke]

You will need some form of edging Jane or the lawnmower will flick it all over the place

Hello,I had the same problem with my grass,when walking on it when wet,I was thinking of some stepping stones & then I didn't want to spend money & did nothing. It's grown back now but it will happen again. Does anyone know how can you contain the wood chippings so that they don't move all over the grass or do you just do a really thin amount & tread it in?

Hi and welcome back

[Tripmeup]

Welcome back from me too..
As VC says, try wood chippings or bark or couple of bags of pebble to deter slugs also

Hi H&V

There is still some forum stuff in the magazine, it's not always obvious bud. If you have the March issue have a butchers at page 76/77 there might be other bits I've not seen yet.

Don't worry, Lisa - that's why H&V is a "dotty puddlehead"
Welcome back, young man, and if you really want my advice, its either wood chip or stop walking round your garden!
