[QUOTE="Jogeephus, post: 702464, member: 4362"] I can't give you exact moisture readings cause my meter goes haywire after 30%. I can tell you that you are getter off wrapping it drier than ideal than wetter than ideal. Here, if you cut it this afternoon you can plan on baling it the next afternoon if nothing happened between times and it will come out pretty. Bale it too wet and you will have rot. We have a rule similar to sizmics rule, "if it (meaning the top layer) looks like its ready to bale - bale it." The underside of the grass will have plenty of moisture and it will turn out nice. A lot of this was hit an miss for us until we found what worked the best for us. [/QUOTE]
