If I leave the grass uncut...
"Jim" [email protected] wrote in message ... ...for a couple of months (say) what are the long-term implications. Of course it will be unsightly and could present the mower with an initial problem when finally getting round to being cut but what about the long-term implications for the grass itself? Will it recover if subsequently given its due attention. thanks for any thoughts ****** You have answered your own question, Jimmo lad. - "Given due attention!". IMO it will usually take no harm. However, depending on how long you leave it, both in time and length of the grass, will depend the difficulty of restoring it. So cut as early as you can. If left for some time you are talking about using a hand sickle which is very laborious and bad for the back , or if later on, a harvesters lei. That's one of them there big curved scythes the farmers used to harvest wheat crops .. Doug. ****** |
