Good morning!!!!

Tried one from TS called Gordon's Barrier, and it didn't last three months, let alone a year. Found the RM43 at Amazon, so I'll give that a try. Thanks again, Rick!

RM43 is also available at TSC.

Here's the RM43 label, for reference RNG.

...

I had an empty mustard jar with flip cap that I cleaned well and, filled about 3/4 full, with a small funnel, from the gallon jug. When I mixed up 10 gallon batches of mix, adding the marker dye was easy and neat.

The RM43 label didn't show up, Rick.:confused2:

Be careful with that mustard bottle so it doesn't find its way into the refrigerator.

Re stabilizer. Had thoughts re a magnet or landscape rake. Area is very rough. The potato farmer did not leave smooth, lots of furrows. Plus the cut grass sits on top and quite thick. Would be near impossible to roll the magnet. Figured the LR would collect lots of grass and with my luck the stabilizer would just slip between the tines. I’ll be keeping an eye open as the mowing improves, but do’t have any immediate hopes.

The 2.5 gallon size was $102 at Amazon, and Prime shipping was free.

I was pretty sure that RM43 wouldn't be available in Kalifornia, so went the Amazon route without even checking TSC...

I marked mine "Big Foot" with a sharpie on both sides.

And it does work better than a Mayo jar or a Ketchup bottle.

With your rains, how long for the cuttings to decompose David?

RNG, sounds like your excavation project might be a good test for the M62. Maybe a 4 in 1 bucket? One of those projects you work in small progressive bites. Still love it when a tool gets the job done cheaper then hiring out and I get to keep the tool. Being retired our time is our time. Of course wife tends to disagree from time to time when she’d like a shorter time frame.

This is our dry season, so longer than I’d like. Mowing will likely be quickest route but thinking it might be several times with rotary before switching to flail. The guinea grass needs work. Still about 17 hours shy of 50 hour service so some additional motivation
