Harry Bloomfield used his keyboard to write : Or it could just be very tough grass and never throughly dries out. We have a few inches of soil, under which is very heavy clay. It used to flood in heavy rain, but I put in lots of drainage to try to help prevent it. It usually needs a week of dry warm weather, even in the summer, before it is fit to try to cut it - so sometimes it just has to be left uncut. The first cut of 2018 was very delayed by the wet weather. ..and just to confirm it is not just me... We are away in the caravan in a three acre field. When we arrived the farmer had just given up on trying to mow it, because his full size tractor / mower was constantly choking up with cuttings. Strange - the farmer who has the fields adjacent to my garden has no such difficultly cutting many tens of acres. First silage cut was last week on long grass left to dry for a couple of days and when the moisture content was right baled and wrapped into silage. Perhaps the difference is in knowing *when* and *how* to cut the grass and the right tools and height settings to use. -- Regards, Martin Brown |
