I was reading an article in the sun (sorry!) about moss and they were
critisising the bbc gardeners world programme for giving bad advice. They
recommended putting the moss on a compost heap, but the article reckoned
that it would never break down and you should just get rid (maybe use some
of it for lining hanging baskets etc.). Who is right?

The most basic Black and Decker one will do the job admirably
Just be prepared for a huge pile of thatch to compost

Okay, so now this novice has a nice black lawn with green bits growing
through, thanks to Evergreen Complete! I'm not even contemplating
manual raking, due to the size of lawn (13x20m). So, I'm off to get an
electric raker.

Questions:

1. What features should I look for in a power raker?

2. What are the best conditions to do the raking? (wet/dry,
before/after cutting, etc)

3. How long should I wait before raking? (Evergreen treatment only
week ago)

4. Any other hints gratefully accepted!

Much obliged
