my 661c is 3 months old now and feels dead in power wise compared to to a mates 5 year old 395xp, my 661c wasnt started for a month i use aspen anyway in it but it just keep flooding it self and finally got it to start 45 minutes later haver about 60 pulls no joke. if it wasnt the fact my one was a stupid bargain new i would have been sorely disappointed with it. running the 30 inch set up

since the site is been open its cut fly tipping of tree and garden waste by 65%. Its a pull in and tip off but open from 9am to 4pm it saves the council sending guys out clearing it up then getting rid of it. got to be working as its now on its 2nd year of running

you got the organics farm between crowland and cowbit but its expensive 30 notes a ton. or at peterborough there is a free tip for green waste for gypsies to use to stop fly tipping

if your a hippy against chemicals diy approach salt and white vinegar works but not a nice smell really or a pro product that again its all natural https://www.pitchcare.com/shop/professional-total-weed-killers/new-way-weed-spray.html or any glyphosate 360 product will do but you may have to keep spraying every month/ 6 weeks or get katana or paradise expensive but will keep the weeds at bay for 6 months
-
get onto horizon utility supplies there acutely not as expensive then you think i got my set from them 6 poles bag lopper saw and hook for around the £450 mark
-
i have a alpha delta stump grinder basically a rock machine with different engine and colour there ok i got mine for under 900 new as the guy put a few on ebay without reserves would i have paid the full £1400 the answer would be no. You be better of buying a older dosko or rayco with 20hp engines and would do bigger stumps a lot better. I have done some 26inch cherry stumps with my alpha one but its hard work and slow going there ok up to 16inch\18inch stumps after that get a bigger machine. alpha delta offers for a tad more money a 14hp kohler engine and alpha teeth are 84 pound where rock machinery are 120 pound a set

clinic ace 360 glyphosate about 28 pound a gallon to buy 350ml into 12liters of water will do nicely
