I cut my hay last night for my first time.
Everything went well. Mower and tractor did their jobs.
Few questions:
20 acres took me 5 hours. Fast in the thin spots and slower in the thick spots. How is that for time? How long does it take you to cut per acre?
It rained a little right after I finished cutting, should I do an extra rake to fluff up and assist drying?
I have two power poles in field with four guy wires on each. I did a lot of circles and cris crosses lifting mower up and down. What a pain! Do you have a good technique for this? Should I bother lifting mower up every time I cross a previously cut swath?
Thanks
