I can almost forgive some of these others. But I don't understand how a person, much less a dad, could even begin to commit such an attrocity. The second I don't click the tongs, tweezers, hell even scissors, you will know that I have been compromised.
I've always wanted to ask someone who is into doing it. Since I've got you here, what satisfaction do you derive from posting outright lies and falsehoods on the internet?
Or if it's really thick and damp I'll do a patern like 2 rows forward 1 row back so they get finely mulched instead of clumped. Think a narrow clockwise rectangle on the right of a given square of grass that slowly walks to the left so the clipings are pulled away from the uncut grass and then run ove again on the return trip. Also helps in case it's thick enough that the grass isn't fully being cut.
Same here. It's sort of a square shape following the borders and obstacles. I think the time savings are much greater compared to doing a 180 on either end, or walking the mower backwards.
I try to go the opposite direction on the next mow, if I remember.
Exactly this. I do the trim of the section I am working, then any areas that cannot be bulk mowed, then smaller and smaller square pattern on the bulk to avoid time consumed on excessive turning/momentum loss. Grass looks fine, not trying to impress anyone, and I get back to my family sooner.
Only if you have a heavy mower and drive in the exact same spot every time. I can see it with a soft yard and a riding mower, but not so much with a push mower.
My guy, robot mowers have been around for some time now. The catch is you need to bury a guide wire around the perimeter of the area the mower is meant to cut. Or at least that was the case the last time I looked into getting one.
My Roomba vacuums in a pattern. It finds the edges of the room, finds obstacles, and then goes ||||| across the middle of the room, doing little circles around table legs.
