Anyone use them? It's basically a lawn mower that had a ball on the front and uses heavy weedeater line about 4X the size.
Anyway... My situation is, I have about say, 70' wide x 45' planting area, it's really rocky. I probably should have truck loads of much dumped on it over the rocks, but they would probably surface again. Anyway, the cane grass is slowly taking over the area.
I have a few star fruit trees and an avocado tree as well...
I guess I am asking is... are my expectations pretty high for that type of mower to cut through thick brush like cane grass? Before I buy one, 2-300 range, and any feedback from anyone that has used one or has one, that would be great! Oh and how long would it take to mow an area of that size?
I guess, once I get it whacked down, I'd mow that area all the time. I use to mow it with my regular lawn mower till I started hitting a lot of rocks. I was also thinking maybe getting a few truck loads of mulch every year might make more sense.
Thanks!
