  1. the 2-4D you can spray anywhere you want to kill broad leafs, it wont hurt grass unless you mix it way strong or spray really heavy. Broad leafs includes trees/shrubs/flowers. You can spray around the base of trees, as long as you don't get it on the leaves. If it gets on the leaves of the flowers, they will get toasted as well.

    Remember if you spray close to flowerbeds, the over-spray can get them as well, especially if its windy out.

  2. This stuff will knock down your dandelions

    I run about 4oz per gallon of spray, you will see anything that is not grass shrivel up the next day. 2.5 gallons should last you a few seasons.

    Should knock down your bamboo. 8oz per gallon of water.

    Buy the concentrate and save over the pre-mix crap at lowes.

  3. The V needs new rubber, seeing what is out there that is good.

    Its a daily driver, so not looking for drag radials or something that you can stick to a wall with, but definitely not looking for something that lasts 80k miles and has no grip either.

    I currently have AS530s on it, and they have done well.

    Must be able to drive when raining.

    Must be able to corner worth a damn.

    must not completely suck in the snow.

     

    Bonus if you have driven on that tire and can attest to is lack of sucking under those conditions.

    Thanks

  4. Range day is any day in my back yard, have about 125 usable yards.

    Just need to finish building the backstop to an acceptable height.

     

    If someone has some distance to make it worth it, ill bring the .50 out. First round ill donate, $3 a round after to cover reloading cost....

  5. You're comparing zero turns to garden tractors, matey. Good luck plowing snow or towing a yard trailer with a zero turn. There is value in the tractors for somebody NOT mowing commercially.

     

    Mine has a hitch, and a tire swap from turf to bars makes the snow move nicely. Kinda sad I didn't get to plow shit this year.

    Vintage, tried my best to kill one growing up, i did not succeed. Only got rid of it for a bigger mower. My cousin bought it, still mows with it.

    Got a 316 to replace the 110. The hydro was tough as nails. I snapped the safety bolt in the drive shaft between the engine and hydro pump twice cranking on the hydro control stick trying to drift it. Pumps never even complained.

     

     

    Of course, i cant vouch for the condition of these particular units, only my past experiences with the same model.

  7. Make your wife mow the lawn while you sit on the porch drinking a beer?

     

    This

     

     

    Seriously though, go green and yellow. A used commercial unit, not the residential stamped frame junk at the box stores.

    I mow 7-10 acres a week with my JD 737, 60" deck. Over 800 hours on it so far, just keep things greased and it keeps going. Oh, and synthetic lube. Complete overkill for your yard, but you would probably be done before you beer could get warm.

  8. This thread has slowed to an unacceptable level of activity.

  9. For 54K, I am a little disappointed. cheap hose clamps, no air filter, paint job on the engine looks like they just pressure washed it and hit it with a rattle can. 2cyl Kabuta with a turbo, 35, maybe 40 HP max?

    That being said, neat concept, very unique, but just not my cup.
