What is the furtherest distance from home you have to travel to cut grass? There is a town 35 miles away I am considering advertising in to try to get work?

I have been seeing leaves falling for over two weeks now and the grass is slowing down some. That might be a sign of an early fall coming. Last year grass did not seem to slow down till the end of Sept. we are about 90 miles off the coast of the Gulf of Mexico.

Today my ZG 222 and my ZD 326 are both going to turn over 200 hours on the hour meters. Thought that was kind of different. We bought the 222 last August and the 326 this spring.

We started up cutting grass last August. I was able immediately to pick up some customers. We have picked up a customer here and there every month since. Many times only one or two a month. Since the first of August calls have picked up. Last week we got four new customers and we have already...

Yesterday afternoon I was cutting grass and made a turn and went through the lid on a septic tank.

Has anybody on here that is running a ZD 326 with a 60" deck been able to find any Gator Blades for it? If so what is the part # for them? I would like to have a set for my ZG 222 with a 48" deck also.

Last year I bought a Cub Cadet BC210 trimmer from Tractor Supply. I use it commercially and understand at there is NO warranty. It ran so well and because of the price this year I decided to buy a second for a back up. About a week after I bought the second one the first one died. I took it in...

Are any of you guys in the south having problems with Bahia grass?

My brother on law gave me one of those backup cameras Saturday evening. He said he had one on his vehicle and thought I might wold like to have one. I installed it this afternoon and I can actually see my hitch well enough to use it when hooking up my equipment trailer and my camper. If you...

What is the most hours any of you have heard of a mower running? I had a friend last week tell me about a Scag he saw that had 9000 hours on it and was still running. He did not know what had been replaced or rebuilt on it.

Had a customer with a small yard we had been cutting most of this summer. She only wanted us to cut it once every two weeks. She commented the week before we cut it last that it was growing incredibly fast and I told her we could cut it at closer intervals. She said leave it at two weeks. We cut...

The Kubota ZD 326 has the ability to raise it's self for blade change and other work under the deck. To raise the mower you raise a cover on the very front of the mower and remove two pins. You then turn the casters to a position where holes line up and insert the pins in the holes. Then you...

Read in the paper this week that our town is going to install deer crossing signs at both ends of town. Just can't see why in the world they want to do that. These are busy roads and they are going to get a lot of deer killed and cars torn up doing that. Looks like the would put them some where...

Bought my first Stihl string trimmer yesterday. Needed one more and everybody says that they are worth the price so I bought one. I have a set of Stihl hedge trimmers that have been getting the job done and I have a Stihl hand held blower that I bought used that I am to overly impressed with.

I moved to town when I was 10 years old. Now I am 56. I picked up a yard on the old neighborhood last week that is two lots down from the first yard I ever cut when I was 10. Back then I got $3 to cut it with the customer's mower and $4 with mine. Now 46 years later we get $45 to cut the same...

I know of a situation locally where a guy found something on Craig's list supposedly to cut grass at reposed property. He got 8 yards the first day. I have looked at everything I can look at for Craig's list and I can't find anything. Do any of you guys know how one might find info on getting...

I see TSC is now selling Jonsered saws. Wonder what happened to them and Husqvarna? My father ran them back in the 80's and they were awesome.

I see various posts on here concerning zero turns and which ones to purchase. In our area there are several different dealers. You can get about any commercial brand you can name and have been able to for several years. There are a lot of people here who cut commercially and have been for...

I just received an invitation to bid on a job for the A local governing agency. Part of the requirements for participating in the bid is to have $1 mil in liability insurance which I have. Then it says that the awarded bidder has to furnish E-verify compliance with the laws of the state. What...

Picked the new mower up today and cut 4 acres on approx 2 hours with it. That is an awesome mower.

We were clearing out a bed for a customer this week and beside a gas meter right beside their house was an empty potato chip bag. When my helper reached and got the bag he found a copper head close to two feet long coiled up under it. One more move could have had terrible results for either one...

We bought a covered trailer and got our liability insurance this past week. Looking at getting another mower this coming week. Debating whether to get another 200 series Kubota with an air cooled gas engine or go to the 300 series and get the water cooled diesel. Looking forward to the rest of...

How much would you guys charge to cut a 4 acre lot that is flat with few trees and a house and utility shed to trim around. We cut it last week in 2 hours 45 minutes with the zero turn and a helper running the weed eater.

I need to buy a push or possibly a self propelled mower with a bigger on it for a small property that I got for a customer today. Have any of you ever use one of the Snappers that they are selling at Walmart? We run a push mower very little but do use one on occasion. Is this a useable mower or...

How many of you have one or more guys working for you? How do you pay them as in by percentage or by the hour? Do you use them as full time employees or do you use them as Contract labor employees? From all appearances we are going to be covered up with work this summer and need to hire one or...

Planning on building a couple of traps to catch carpenter bees this week if I get time. Every year they drill into something here at the house. A couple of times they have attacked the handles on my wheel barrow.

All right here it is. It is incredibly comfortable although I have not worn it to work. It actually feels better than wearing it over a ball cap.

Since I started this thread this is what I came up with. It is not real fashionable but I believe it will work great if the hat brim is big enough. It is supposed to be an ideal sun hat. It was given to me several years by an old surveyor that had retired and had several of them. What y'all think?

Do any of you guys know of a source to buy a pretty large sun hat that can be work with a Worktunes headphone? I love my Worktunes but need more sun protection than a regular baseball type cap. Anybody got an idea where I can find such a product?

Yesterday as I was getting ready to go to work I realized I needed to mix some gas for my trimmer and blower. I normally mix a gallon at the time especially this time of the year. I have a clear plastic gallon jug that I mix it in so that I get an accurate mix. I poured the oil into the jug...
