Uphill Gardening Is Hurting My butt.
As per the subject title...
My garden is on a slope and I'm fed up of pushing the mower uphill, it makes my bottom ache the next day.
I'm thinking about just planting up a section of that lawn with shrubbery and stuff... BUT I know fuck all about it.
Any experts on here?
ABout 50m2 it is. I;d fill it with dope but there's some nosey fuckers about the place these days.
Thanks in advance.

Old age don't kick in till you get to 50, so it ain't that.
Sit on mower? Is that a sheep with a saddle on it?

Re: Uphill Gardening Is Hurting My butt.
maybe just use a smaller butt plug when mowing?
Anyone that has time for drama is not gardening enough.

Re: Uphill Gardening Is Hurting My butt.
Question from my end would be do you want to harvest from this plot or just for it to look nice and never have to go up the hill again?
Would affect whether you plant fruits or nuts vs just ornamental stuff

Get a decent hover mower with a Kawasaki engine. Hang it on a rope swing it like a pendulum.

Not allowed livestock, plus the dog would try and eat it.
I'd keep the horse here if we could, but he'd be in the fridge all day looking for munchies.
It's on a slope so the water will just fall out
I like the extra padding of the XL
Just shrubs n stuff so I can weed once a year and leave it be
That's much more work than I want to do.
