Yard maintenace
« on: September 20, 2015, 11:11:36 am »
I went out to my farthest yard to do a little lawn mowing and saw what I thought was some garbage or something thrown onto the property. I started mowing and when I got close I was surprised as all get out as to what it actually was. A little over a week and these outgrew the grass by a mile.
Anyone hungry? :)

So you get your out bee yards by taking on their yard maintenance contract? most of us only weed wack around the hives!!!

Is this you other property? neibours must be happy it looks so much better than it did in the first pictures that you posted when it was for sale.

Yes, this is the property we bought a couple years ago. I keep it mowed and looking presentable, making sure the septic field etc. doesn't get grown in.. Most of my yards I mow at least around my hives so that the hosts don't think I'm a slob (fooled them). :P

I noticed the wheels on the riding mower looks like they have been stressed, or the spindles are bent for some reason?  ;D Your buddy, Jack

They are normal Perry, only I do think you need a larger cut to get the grass mowed quicker.
