    If you knew my sister, you'd probably not be bragging about that.

    Yes, I have a riding lawnmower and yes, I have an easy solution to your wet grass issues.

    PM me with your particular dream property requirements and start packing for your relocation to Beautiful Central Oregon! :cheers:

    hahaha

    trust me. Wife and i have discussed relocating to a more remote location. We are awaiting results over the winter and depending on how the long term social path looks to be headed, or path may be to uproot aNd go. needs to be able to grow vegetation and be very isolated near water though.

    Have you considered not bagging the wet grass and mulching it then bagging it when it's dried up on the ground? I remove the bag and do that with my Honda push mower....I also rinse it often as I mow so it doesn't build up wet grass under the shroud that slows the blades down.....kind of a pain to mow twice but it works.....I traded my old riding mower for some pot years ago...keeping it running was more work than taking my Honda for a stroll through the yard....I like the walking part of lawn mowing. Get some excercise and enjoy a fresh mowed lawn at the same time. Takes me two days to mow my yard and orchard by hand...raising the deck is also helpful as someone mentioned....

    i have. Its a serious pain to rake it all up Nd if i miss spots it kills the grass underneath.
    I have the deck raised as high as possible but think i let it grow too long regardless

    You can pick it up with the mower and bag after it's cut....it actually fertilizes the grass under it...I use grass clippings on all my vegetables in the garden....full of nitrogen...also line my chicken coop with grass clippings....easy to mow second time around....then rinse the bag out after
