    Hi All,

    I've decided to join a gardening forum after two years of fighting a losing battle in my garden!

    I have multiple lawn problems including weeds, ant hills, bind weed, lumps, seeding, etc. so am looking to pick up some advice on here, and try to turn things around in the garden..

    I'll have a search through the forums and see if my questions have been asked before.

    Thanks!

      Hi and welcome! My garden is in a bit of a state too. Hopefully next year we'll both be looking back and feeling impressed at our transformations! :)

      Wow, what a friendly welcome, thank you!

      I've been invited to a BBQ today so won't get much time in the garden, but I might do a little weeding before I go.

      I'll post a picture of my garden when I'm allowed..
