Day 3 of sitting down due to wet weather here. Just drizzly rain with the occasional heavier shower. Looks like it might hang around for a few more days too.

"All sin is washed away in the Holy goodness of Beer"
Book of Redeye, Psalm 69
After 12-15" of rain for Feb, this seems to be the new norm for fortnightly mowing in my town.
2.5 heavy woolpacks of clippings off this area & another off the front.

Bloody hell ed its a wonder the battery whipper gets through it, but you did a good job.. what type of grass is that ?
Mostly Kikuyu NLALM. I wasn't doing a wide swath with the whippie. Plenty of angle just to get a bit of an edge.
She texted me a week after I last mowed to come again ASAP, but I couldn't get there until today. Day 15.
Ed, would a medium/high catch, followed by a mulch mow make it any easier/more efficient ?
It would ease the amount of clippings you would take away but its a double mow.
Cheers Fred.
Hi Fred, I cut & caught it high first with the Rover and then dropped it 3 notches & cut it again. Was a bit tempted to go over it again but gave up on it.
I think it would be too wet to mulch. Haven't had any rain for 3 days but the tyres of the mower were still wet on the second lap & that was almost midday.
At the moment, properties that I normally mulch are just getting side thrown with the mulchmaster. In a couple of days the grass has grown a couple of inches & hidden any clippings
I spend most of my money on beer and horses, I just waste the rest....

We've had another couple of inches of rain for March. Grass is still growing madly. Did this one today @ 21 days. Too disgusted to post 'after' pics.

Looks like your average ' Can you do it today for 50 bucks job'.
Anything Ian says may or may not be garbage, it may also be his own opinion or it may not be his opinion at all, it may just be something he felt like stating anyone following his advice does so at their own risk and may be doing something Ian would actually advise against.
And if you don't like what Ian has to say use the ignore function if you don't know how ask i will gladly tell you
