davehummell Posted April 4, 2020 Share Posted April 4, 2020 That is back in the day. The guy running that dozer was lucky he had a roof over his head not to many tractors had roofs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

j hancock Posted April 5, 2020 Author Share Posted April 5, 2020 With some processing and screening the loam can even be made into smaller loam. Too bad there is so much dirt mixed in with it... 1 Quote JimIt doesn't cost anything to pay attention. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charge a guy a high price to drop off his stumps, put them in your tub grinder, add dye and presto-that will be 35 bucks please for your your mulch! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hah! and I should have noted- that is the per yard price.! What blows my mind is the amount of mulch that gets sold here. Seems like the big triaxle trailers used to come down from Maine. A lot of tub grinders working here these days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PC68 Posted April 9, 2020 Share Posted April 9, 2020 Believe it or not I sell more black dyed mulch than the natural hemlock, I can’t understand why it’s so popular. The dyed mulch is crap metal chunks and all, not mention the smell, I guess the customer is always right. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ws721 Posted April 9, 2020 Share Posted April 9, 2020 I remember when at an FFA national convention other kids would ask "what do you grow up there in N.H.?" I'd say Rocks & Condos. 1 Quote Remember if it's got a hood it's no good! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Local yard has their piles ready to go. I'll pay attention now that you mention it to see what pile shrinks the most. When I need any (for my kids-not me) I go to the source...tell operator.."no teeth or finger nails please"...Hmnn were tub grinders that common when Jimmy H disappeared?😎 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TS7 Posted April 14, 2020 Share Posted April 14, 2020 Red Horse seems to me years ago there was a JH75 Red dyed mulch here in SE Michigan. Had a odd smell to it, but it was union made. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
