    Moisture content of wood chip?

    Ran some on the drying floor at 1m deep. Plenty of airflow maybe too much. But was at 80%humidity is that actually drying? Or just burning electric? Grain needs to be under 65pc to dry the grain, anyone know if the figure is different for Woodchip

    Non wire robotic mowers

    That’s what I thought. The wired type is good if have a contiguous lawn but we’ve got patches here and there. The guy says they come and map the whole of your grass/lawn that you are likely to want to cut. Then it’s good to go

    Non wire robotic mowers

    Went to a dealer nr Oxford recently about a different matter. Noticed his Kress robotic mowers. He said that they don’t need a buried wire and some can cope with long grass. Kress are the German Husqvarna I gather. I’m Has anyone had any experience of the non-buries cable type of robotic mowers?
