Ed Kennell 39,070 #1 Posted April 15, 2016 Beautiful 70F sunny day here in SC Pa. Good day for seat time. I put Mad Max to work retilling the strawberry beds and planted 50 new plants. Then he got the veggie garden ready. Then the raider and the 312 hydro took turns mowing. This is the first I mowed with the 312. It had a cab and plow on it when I bought it last fall. I took the cab and plow off and put on a 36" RD deck, and I really like this combo. This may be my go to mower. The high back is really comfy and the hydro is great for juggling the deck over the roots of the 30 spruce trees I trim around. I may have to get rid of those puny 6" front wheels though. 14 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JimD 3,345 #3 Posted April 15, 2016 We've had a nice couple of days here too Ed. Got the B60 fired up and hauling brush to the burn pile from the blow down pine a few weeks ago in that wind storm. A willow came partially down with it so we have more work to do cleaning that one up. It was fun being "back in the saddle again" . I didn't get any pics but I should have. You have a fine group of ponies there! 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tankman 3,520 #4 Posted April 15, 2016 (edited) Great weather just south of Allentown, PA. Mowed last week, ran the dethatcher again today. Going to spread weed 'n feed this week. 7 days without veggies makes one weak! Garden this week too. Edited April 15, 2016 by Tankman 8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WNYPCRepair 1,923 #8 Posted April 16, 2016 I won't be able to mow my back yard till June, and by then it will still be muddy, and the grass will be a foot high. Front yard is still looking like winter grass. 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ClassicTractorProfessor 5,346 #12 Posted April 17, 2016 Didn't get much seat time here today as its been cool and rainy all day but did manage to get the axle seals and transmission fluid and filter changed as well as the transmission cam on the 1277...and did catch enough of a break in the rain to take it for a test drive around the block after it was all done...that new cam sure made a big difference...was nice being able to drive without having to hold the control lever back to keep it from going to wide open. And the bright side of the rain...the 701 is still sitting outside so it got a much needed bath 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JAinVA 4,629 #16 Posted April 17, 2016 (edited) We started earlier than normal this year.Ma nature said not so soon and gave us some sub freezing temps.We buried everything in leaf mulch and it seemed to protect the plants.Potato plants sure look good.I agree with Phatboy.If you garden then the trailing tiller sure beats any walk behind.Does a better job too.JMHO JAinVA Edited April 17, 2016 by JAinVA 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
