[QUOTE="greybeard, post: 1816340, member: 18945"] There's always been a discussion regarding just how much good comes from mowing. People talk about how Glyco kills good things along with the undesirable species but if there is any entity that is 100% [B]in[/B]discriminate, it's a mower blade. Mowing looks good of course, but the good palatable part of a grass is the new growth at top, which is what the mower whacks off. I've never been much on mowing down good forage, or even palatable weeds in dry years. [U]NOT[/U] saying I've never done it tho. (I wore out 2 bush hogs before I realized I was just encouraging much of that stuff to follow the old "Kill one of us, 5 will come to it's funeral" thing and instead of a single sapling, a cluster or 5 or more grows from it's littl stump. [B]Learn you target(s)![/B] and use the appropriate spray that kills (in most cases only controls...there's a difference) your target species and leaves the good stuff alone.
