    That’s why I love my twin blade mower. Turns all yard trimmings into basically powder that feeds the lawn and even helps prevent moisture from evaporating out of the soil.

    I also use controlled natural selection so that only shit that can survive our brutal summers grows, so I don’t even need to water.

      Was just saying, we got a max of 2" of topsoil in NW Florida. I’m throwing everything back in the yard. Every weed we pull we chunk on the ground. Don’t care if it looks the shit, I’ll hit it with the mower eventually.

      It’s impossible to overstate how long topsoil takes to form and how easy it is to trash. At 54, I honestly don’t think I’ll live long enough to add .25" of good soil to this yard. But I’m fuckin’ trying!
