Fred,
I hope you have better results with your weed wiper than I have had. Maybe you have some tips that I could incorporate to make mine more efficient.
I have mixed grass, primarily fescue that I use for hay. My bane is Johnson Grass. It grows very fast and very high. The mature Johnson Grass has thick stiff stalks in it. If I can get the Johnson Grass baled when it is young, before the thick stalks develop, I can bale and use it okay. But I don't want the mature Johnson Grass in my hay bales. I have my wiper mounted on my front end loader so I can raise or lower it depending on the height of the fescue. I use Roundup in my wiper.
My dilemma is that, although the Roundup kills the Johnson Grass, the dead grass is still standing in the hay. So, if I bale the hay, I have the dead grass with the thick stalks in my bales. I think that I simply need a different solution for my particular problem.
