Agreed. My landscape gardener told me many moons ago that grass
likes
being cut, but weeds don't. I just mow regularly and they eventually
disappear.

Dandelions just grow close to the ground instead.

Not here they didnt. Those who mowed them and those who
didnt bother all got the same result none of them in a few weeks.

Eh? They vanished from doing nothing?

Yeah, they are seasonal after all.


Doesn't bother me what grows on my lawn.


I'd rather mine hadn't been invaded by kikuyu which
is essentially african jungle pretending to be grass.


Oh, I thought you planted that on purpose.

It's a soft flat green area. Moss, clover, grass, whatever.


You've clearly never tried kikuyu or buffalo.


I looked at a photo of Kikuyu and it looks fine to me. Just wider blades than I have here.
