My first bucket practice

[smallfarmer]

Just got my new BX earlier than expected. Over the winter we got four trees down and three of them are widow makers. Also had a lot of "stuff" the power company left behind after a 4 year battle (but thats a different story).
I came, I see, I sawed. By the time I got the last of the wood moved I was getting pretty good (I only took 3 divits with the bucket.)
The first pic is my pride and joy just off the truck and the second is the result of my first cleanup this year. Oh and I mowed as well.

I burnt 3 piles each one about the size of a 2 car garage.
The other 2 I burned were each nearly the size a single car garage.

Keep in mind that not much is going to grow where you burn that pile for a few years. We can talk about that over a cold beverage while looking at a couple of bare spots in my yard if you like.

Less grass to mow.

Usually by the next growing season, the pH has settled down and a little seed will fix the problem.

Weeds will grow there. Weeds will grow anywhere.

Yep, no problem we burn there about every year. Don't know what kind of grass is there but I can mow with blades like razors and the next day it looks like I mowed with barrels instead of blades.

There is a place across the road from me where they scraped off an area about 15 x 20 that is as bare right now as it was 10 / 15 years ago when they first graded that little spot.
No grass no weeds no nutin!

It's dirt not rocky in that spot.

If our spouses knew how much we like are new tractors they would never let us alone with them.
