Plan where you want your leaves to ultimately end up. Put a sheet in the chosen spot, so it’s easier to carry all of the leaves to your compost heap or to bag them.

Work in one direction only especially if there’s a breeze, try and work with it rather than against it; this will help to collect ll of the leaves in just one area. 

Hold the blower at your side and point at the ground at a shallow angle. Use a smooth back-and-forth motion as you walk slowly with the leaf blower in front of you.

Here's how to get the best use out of your leaf blower.

Opening back in 1972, with just two members of staff, Sherborne Turf now has an impressive full-time team of 23. In 2016 the company moved to new premises which enabled the business to expand its offerings to both its trade and retail customers.

EGO Power fitted this opportunity perfectly with its innovative approach to garden machinery, and becoming the EGO dealer enabled the company to offer professional lithium ion powered equipment across north Dorset and South Somerset.

As the industry’s leading cordless specialist and the first manufacturer to deliver petrol performance in a battery operated tool, it was only a matter of time before we launched a multi-tool and its already becoming a key product for us.
 
With a single power head and five powerful tool attachments, that can be changed quickly and easily, the new EGO Power⁺ multi-tool is packed with innovation. It pushes the boundaries of cordless battery performance, making it the one tool that every gardener needs to have in their armoury.
 

Until now battery powered multi-tools have always been a jack of all trades but master of none. This has all changed now, thanks to EGO! 

Keeping your hedge trimmer blade sharp is the best way to keep the hedges healthy. Dull blades make ragged cuts tearing foliage instead of cutting it cleanly, which can compromise its health.

The best ways to keep your hedges healthy.

The more efficient way to cut your lawn is to trim the edges first. This will allow for the clippings to be either mulched or collected by the mower. Cut around the edge wide enough so you can turn the mower around without driving into a flower bed.

To avoid brown patches, don’t cut the grass too short; during the cold season, leave the lawn from 5 to 7 cm long, during the warm season instead, 3 to 6 cm.

Take your time; if the grass is tall or slightly wet, it can cause clumps of mulch and uneven patches.
