TheolderIgetthebetterIwas Posted November 2, 2020 Author Report Share Posted November 2, 2020 Repair goalmouths and penalty spots...no way...no-one goes in the goalmouths until virtually kick off, and asked to keep out of the goals at half time. Bit of spraying to do and that's about all, we've had a good clean up around the site last week and looking nice all around if I say so myself. Bit of divoting to finish off after Saturday and a quick nip off will do for this week. I'll probably take the opportunity weather permitting to plug a few areas and pop a bit of sand in some of the softer areas to help the water get through the surface quicker. Will also take the chance to blow a few areas with the trusty old air dagger. Can see this lasting longer than 4 weeks I'm afraid!

Paul Posted November 4, 2020 Report Share Posted November 4, 2020 The goal mouth i repaired over the summer is showing some ware which is no surprise really. Just gona give it some tlc, light roll. Fork it and add some seed. Maybe drop some sand down some holes to help the drainage. Plenty of other jobs that just need time. Cant get it all done at once so if we get some decent weather we might have a chance. Weeds have shot up thanks to the worms creating space for them to grow. Another job to pick away at.

TheolderIgetthebetterIwas Posted November 15, 2020 Author Report Share Posted November 15, 2020 Well full circle now, out with the slitter to give the pitch a bit of air and get the water away a bit faster. Also allowed the grass to grow to 2" to hopefully get a bit deeper rooting with the fertiliser biting 100% now. Big bonus this week as well, been looking for a set of slotted rollers for over 9 months and these appeared on Ebay this week ...got them at last. The benefit of these are they don't roll the grass down in front of the cutters and will give a much better cut than the solid rollers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheolderIgetthebetterIwas Posted November 15, 2020 Author Report Share Posted November 15, 2020 Big, big bonus too in the last couple of weeks, one of the boys here managed to get us a couple of very nice sheds that were going to be scrapped! Lovely great shed giving me the chance to store the triple inside at last. Bit of work to do in there yet with shelving and a work bench but now I can get to the mowers without having to move a dozen bits and pieces...feeling really spoilt with all the space now.

TheolderIgetthebetterIwas Posted November 15, 2020 Author Report Share Posted November 15, 2020 And the ground temperature taken this morning a very healthy 11⁰c at 4" which is amazing for this time of the year. At 10⁰c grass will start to slow down slightly so at this time the grass is growing well will be cut at least twice a week for the time depending on the weather. At 5⁰ the grass will really slow up until it stops when it gets to a few days of zero temperatures, that's when pitches suffer the most damage as there is no recovery for displaced or smeared grass, it cannot recover from being stomped into mud. The best chance after this happens is to have a guts full of rain to wash the grass out of the mud. Mark Leah 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheolderIgetthebetterIwas Posted November 15, 2020 Author Report Share Posted November 15, 2020 Not a lot of advantage with polythene this time of the year Breugel, in the spring to warm the ground faster it is used a lot by farmers to get the crop to market earlier. Fleece on a goalmouth (?) Not for me personally, would see no point in just doing a goalmouth. No warm ups in the goalmouths has always worked for me to protect it. I've calmed down from when the damage was done and mostly repaired it now, they got the message on the day believe me!

Mrgreen Posted November 17, 2020 Report Share Posted November 17, 2020 With the present incredibly mild temperatures, and the fact that grass, and weeds are still actively growing. Daisies, for example, looking more like cabbages, it seems like a good idea to apply a late season selective herbicide. Getting a clean surface now will really give a good head start come next spring. TheolderIgetthebetterIwas 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like cabbages certainly, so big I've just been cutting them of with a knife, quicker than a selective...and cheaper! Not got a lot of weed as I tend to continually treat weeds as I see them and do the whole pitch that way as well. Never saw the point on spraying a whole pitch to get a few weeds that would not cover 20 square yards in total. Grass is certainly growing! I've not been able to cut it for 13 days now due to this bloody rain. Dry day Thursday promised so planning to cut my hay field then...fingers crossed, probably the longest it's ever been at the moment! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrgreen Posted November 18, 2020 Report Share Posted November 18, 2020 Older. I’ve just noticed your new rollers. Nice upgrade. If you can get the scraper attachments it will be well worth it. The groves don’t take long to fill up in sticky conditions. Some of the older walk behind mowers used to have a small section of roller on each side, with a big void in the middle. Great in the summer, but used to gouge a little when used in softer conditions. Another little tip for anybody. If you don’t get on with the groves, a tight length of plastic pipe slid over each one and you have smooth rollers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I try to avoid sticky conditions where possible when using a roller mower, or would stiff brush the pitch early morning to remove dew and worm casts to avoid the clogging. This time of year I will go back to a rotary cut and only use the triple when conditions allow, it is a heavy beast for the conditions at this time. I will be looking for the scrapers but will probably end up doing a bit of a bespoke jobby if needs be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheolderIgetthebetterIwas Posted November 21, 2020 Author Report Share Posted November 21, 2020 Rain, rain, rain, never make plans they say, all the work I planned on the pitch during lockdown...we've had one dry day here!!! Got decent cut on the pitch that day though. So with today's rain I decided to service the rotary. New plug, oil filter and oil (single 30 grade) clean carburetor bowl and check float operation, and finish with a greasing. Check afterfire solenoid to stop backfires. Use sump oil pump for a nice easy oil change, lovely bit of kit. Did find a couple of leucars a bit loose on the ignition side so pinched them up a tad, made difference to starting immediately.

TheolderIgetthebetterIwas Posted November 21, 2020 Author Report Share Posted November 21, 2020 One disappointing thing though I did notice a bit of spray oil on the front axle which may be coming from the top of the engine. Hopefully not the head gasket but maybe the rocker cover I hope...a much easier job that will be! So wet again tomorrow I may strip out the front of the engine to find out what happened...sod it the mower has only done 330 hours. Might get away with just torqueing the bolts down...fingers crossed on that one. Forecast for the week looking dry!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty simple to have made and modelled on the old mowers you were talking about with the void in the centre to avoid rolling the grass down in front of the cutter units. Keep a sharp eye out for stones or metal studs that have come out of boots though or you will end up with a nice sharpening bill (!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're braver than I am there Paul, I've never rolled directly after a game. I like to put all the divots back first after the grass has had a good washing to let it stand up. Probably got a few thousand to do after yesterdays game but with no home fixture next Saturday I'm on easy street for a couple of weeks. A roll towards the end of this week or even next and then a good slitting should get our boxing day fixture on. Paul 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fenman Posted December 14, 2020 Report Share Posted December 14, 2020 A strange but serious question to ask you Older . You obviously have to plan your work on your pitch according to the weather . Do you rely solely on the weather forecasts or do you use a different method ie. barometer ? The reason I ask is that along the extreme East coast here in Norfolk , the proximity ( good word ) of the sea means that rainfall as predicted by the experts often doesn't arrive or if it does , not in the volume forecast . As a result some of "the old boys " rely on a barometer or even seaweed as an indicator as regards planning work on the fields . Does the fact that you are surrounded by water down there as apposed to one coastal fringe , mean that the weather forecast is usually accurate .?

I've been reliant on weather forecasts all my working life and they are notoriously wrong down here on the south coast a lot of times. Certainly our geographical situation makes it difficult to get the weather correct, but generally the south coast of Cornwall gets a lot more rain than the rest of the county in my opinion. We sit at the mouth of the English channel which seems to act as a funnel for the weather fronts. Two weeks ago virtually all clubs on the south coast cancelled when the rest of Cornwall played, even as close as 5 miles away from the coast seems to be different! Myself I watch the forecasts but keep an eye out over Mabe hill as that's where 95% of our weather comes from. A lot of people dont realise how wet Cornwall can be.

Ieuan Gregory Posted December 14, 2020 Report Share Posted December 14, 2020 I watch about 5 forecasts a day and also follow 2 different forecasts on the net. The weather Radar app is very useful for short term rain forecasts, however as Dave says the South coast gets a lot more rain than the North. Also because we are a peninsular there is a greater chance of isolated weather conditions. Several years ago, when Boscastle got wiped out I watched the rain advance up the Bristol Channel not 5 miles off shore. Hayle and the west (35 miles as the crow flies) never had a drop of rain that afternoon. I have a similar hill to the west which always gives me a good idea of what is coming up TheolderIgetthebetterIwas and Mark Leah 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheolderIgetthebetterIwas Posted December 18, 2020 Author Report Share Posted December 18, 2020 Well started repairing the pitch today after last Saturday's game, been too wet to walk on with all the rain but not too bad today. Spotted these slow release prills in one of the divots still there after being put down 9 weeks ago, they must still be working as the ground temperature was still at 7 degrees today which is bonkers for this time of the year. So once the major divots are replaced I will cut the grass and roll with a good deep slitting the day after, way too wet at the moment to put any machinery on the pitch so fingers crossed on the weather up to boxing day the next fixture. Although the temperatures are still good and the grass is still slowly growing there is no recovery on the displaced divots as shown by no root growth after 6 days, may get some later but not at this time.
