On the topic of lawns, can anyone recommend me a grass trimmer?
I want to go gas, but the cheap ones <$150 are garbage based on reviews. The corded electric ones seem decent and one can be had for $60.
The electric has that appeal since i don't have to deal with another engine/gas/etc, but the cord may piss me off, not sure. Then the battery ones, not sure, but seems like a waste for what they are.
Thoughts/recommendations?

Fuzzy weed killer from the states it just works. 3 days after spraying it and everything thats not grass is dead. Best $40(2 jugs) I've ever spent. I refused to pull weeds by hand.
Ryan GrubEx is the shit, forget the non-pesticide stuff that doesn't work. My neighbour just paid weedman for the 2nd time this year & and a built in irrigation system every 4am it's on & his lawn is still shit with weeds, lol. Doesn't help that he scalps the lawn every time.
I just cut it again, second highest setting before the storm came in, the fertilizer is working fast this year.
that's my last hail mary. i have 1/2 a jug of it that i have yet to use. if it does work i'm going across the boarder and bringing back a flippin barrell of it.

Is there much of a point in doing this? I am not sure if my lawn has too much/normal/too little for dethatching.

You see all that dead grass in the spring? This takes care of it. I usually do it with a rake, this will be a lot easier.

The amount of sand that's on my lawn in the spring is insane. I can thank the City of Barrie for that.

Ok, got these off my phone:
My lawn in the summer last year (watered constantly)
![](http://i42.tinypic.com/34g4uj7.jpg)
The culprit:
![](http://i40.tinypic.com/ehmyow.jpg)
edit: as a frame of reference here is the grass in my backyard, which i don't weed. I just overseed and dump patches of soil on where my dog left piss marks or dug up holes.

I'll get the shot of the front yard tomorrow
