    Noticed this thread from last year and from the sound of it, now would be a good time to try to get rid of moss - is that right :dunno:?

    I did have a couple of attempts earlier this year, which have helped, but it's still pretty bad. I've noticed that whenever I use the rake on hedge trimmings, there's still lots of moss coming up :frown:. Sometimes I think there's more moss than grass out there :noidea:.

    So, from what I've just read - it's a case of 'scarify the lawn' THEN apply moss treatment. Wait a couple of weeks and then get to work on trying to get out as much as possible .................. - is that it :what:?

    Yes, so get those hedgerow fruits into your freezers now ready to make some homebrew when there's less gardening to do.
