Hello Fellow Lawn Owners:
I recently acquired a bit of land and yard. I have about a 45 min mow of pure yard grass, and I would like to capture the clippings with my cub cadet riding lawn mower in a bagging attachment. I also mow about a 1 acre plot of land that is grass/other. I mow this part half as much as it is not used for yard or anything. I do not want to or need to capture the clippings of this part.
If I get the bagger attachment (triple bag for the 50 in deck), is it okay for me to mow the back part with the bags removed? Do I have to remove the entire attachment the each time? Or can I just have it shoot free from the long shoot thing? The grass may or may not be wet/damp as the 1 acre has marshier areas depending on time of year. The lawn grass is generally always damp where it grows the thickest.
Sidenote: My long term goal is to turn the 1 acre into a native prairie and only mow it once year (I may have to rent a larger mower for that event). But I want to do this right the first time, so I am looking for someone who knows how to reclaim land and put it back to they way it was before it was grass.
I bet there is a mowing subreddit. Heh.
Thanks so much for your thoughts and time!
