Mulching is best accomplished when frequently cut and grass is left tall so clippings have a place to hide while they decompose.
looking at yer pictures I'd run a pair of calves on that place and have nice jucy steak's and burgers in 18 mo.
OR:
Take 3 cuttings of hay put into square bales and feed it or sell to someone that has horses, especially in a drought year $$$$ BTDT.  |
Yeah, that grass is aggressively growing.
You should never mow more than a third of the grass's length, and you shouldn't be mowing wet. My uncle has a ZT1 50 Kawi and none of the issues you have...although he's known to occasionally bag if he lets it get out of hand.
