Honda makes great mowers. Self propelled commercial cuts through anything. Blade reverses to cut to mulch so no bag is needed or keep the blade the regular way and keep the bag on.

Not consistently...No...
The above replies are especially true if the grass is St Augustine and there was a rainstorm a few days previously...

thanks bro

Besides, you don't want a reel mower for tall grass. Rotary is best.
-
If you want to use one as an exercise machine..sure go ahead...just on no circumstances should you depend on one for commercial purposes....

Buy some goats
-
If you want a healthy lawn, you don't want to cut much more than 1/3 of the blade at a time and NEVER down to an inch. That is just inviting disease, insects, weeds and stress. 3-3-1/2 inches is best for a healthy lawn.

But won't the farts from the goats cause the ozone to break down (or some shit like that)?

It will not cut tall grass but as you say, great when grass is below 12 inches. I only use a non-motorized mower. Great low intensity cardio :).

A single-stroke? Many of those in use? Idk.

Given the amount of fat stores you can use as energy, i would advise you to buy the push one.
You can't afford the gas one, so you really have no choice.

If you don't buy an all electric mower, it's over.
The ghost of Tesla will hold you down while Navy Mike runs over you with a gas mower.

Really? So I guess you're going to protest having gardeners in your city?

If the gas blasts from my fart locker haven't destroyed our climate, it's unlikely a goats anus would do it.

Not if its Bermuda grass or something like that. The lower you cut it the better it spreads out. Coincidently I would recommend a reel mower for cutting Bermuda grass. You can get motorized reel mowers.

I don't think that applies since he doesn't live in Bermuda.
Hope this helps.

I have one that I use every now and then. The trick is to cut your grass short with a regular mower or riding mower then maintain with the reel.
There are reel mowers out there that will cut tall grass, but most its difficult to do so. Look for one that is Made in America. I love mine!
-

We don't really have lawns in my part of town. I certainly have protested gas powered leaf blowers, which are illegal in residential neighborhoods in LA, even though they're everywhere. I got my building's gardner to use an electric leaf blower. He was already using an electric weed whacker.
-
What TA said. I had one sold it. Good in theory sux in application. My grandpa used to make me cut the grass w one back in the 70s. Back then they were much heavier and did a better job too. But trying to cut grass that you've let get too high sux w them. Buy a cheap regular mower and get your exercise another way.

really?! What part of LA? They use them everywhere in the Redondo beach area. Gas I mean. Loud as shit but the electric ones are loud too.

You would have a meltdown if you saw the acres of land surrounding me and what it takes to maintain it.
You are so far out of touch with everyone outside your bubble. For instance, you don't realize that it MANY areas that it would take Law Enforcement over 30 minutes to respond to you, yet you want to ban guns.
Wake up for once and realize you are not the center of the fucking universe.

I grew up in the suburbs, but once I left home I chose to live in urban areas.

Lots of empty areas, but that's the thing: they're empty. The vast majority of the the US and of the world lives in urban areas.

Half the population of the US lives in the yellow area, half in the black.

Lmao..so we will break our backs for the "transgenders" and "agenders" and whatever the fuck else, but people living in the rural areas can go fuck themselves.

I'm not trying to take away your rights. Waiting periods and magazine limits are not undue burdens, nor is mental health screenings.

Should the following people be allowed to buy guns and ammo ?
- people who have been diagnosed as bipolar or schizophrenic
- people who have been arrested but not charged or charged but not convicted of domestic violence
- people who have restraining orders against them
- people who have been convicted of a non-violent felony, but have served their time
- people who have been convicted of a violent felony, but have served their time
BTW, why did this thread vier off into gun control? Can't we go back to talking about climate change??? In the map of the world above, see all those people living in Bangladesh? (north east corner of India). That's a big river delta that is expected to be wiped out by sea level changes. All those people will need to find a new place to live. Same with south east Florida.

I'm fine with requiring electric lawn tools in certain areas, yeah. No problem.

The only way to solve the problem of climate change really is to incentivize not having children via extra tax breaks, rebates, monetary compensation, etc... Its a people problem not a leaf blower problem.

Exactly, man. Ex-actly.
And I know for a fact that Tim won't disagree.

The blade (which I guess would be the wheel size) should be taller than the grass it's cutting for best results.

We won't see the effects of reducing the birth rate for a hundred years. We need to do something to prevent CO2 from reaching 450 ppm within 20 years.
Back to the goats, yes reducing methane from farm animals would help. Changing the diet of the cows and adding probiotics would reduce methane emissions. Eating pork or chicken instead of beef would help too. (Btw, cows burp more methane than they fart)

Just thinking of all the many, many, many problems this would minimize in just a couple decades, including the 'gun violence' all the goobs are so caught-up on, it's actually mind-boggling. Why isn't this THE primary political concern?

Because changing the diet is not feasible as cost per head of cattle would then be outrageous. Not everyone is an effete whole foods shopper. The cost will pass on to the consumer.
The real solution is lab grown meat as an alternative. Again, you are behind the curve.

No, but you have shrubs, trees and hedges. Are you going to stop the gardener from using gas hedge trimmers? The tree trimmers from using chainsaws and let me know when you or if you're willing to pay the extra cost in labor for them to take the time to buy extension cords and also take the time run that cord from one end of the property to the other on every freaking property in your city. If they raise their rates don't bitch about it and pay it because you asked for it.

Had one. Only does a good job if you cut every 5-7 days

Three facts:
1. If you run over a small stick while mowing with a reel mower, the reel mower will stop on its tracks and you'll probably do a flip over it and get hurt. With a gasoline powered mower, you wouldn't even notice the stick was there. The power of gasoline can't be denied.
2. This thread quickly went from lawn care advice to gun control arguments...WTF?
3. Navy Mike is the one and only, true authority here regarding lawn care advice. So everyone else just hush.
