Title: SCH grass care system
Post by: hafod on April 19, 2013, 08:48:49 am

Hi,
Just wondering if anyone had any experience of the SCH grass care system??
http://www.schsupplies.co.uk/category/1219mm-48-grass-care-system. (http://www.schsupplies.co.uk/category/1219mm-48-grass-care-system.)
We haven't had our smallholding long so haven't accumulated the 'kit' needed for paddock maintenance (we do have a small set of harrows) so was wondering whether this system might be an option for us. Our land
We have a compact tractor and some of our land is steep and has narrow gateways so I was thinking this might be a really good idea.....
Any experience or opinions welcome. :)
Thanks
H

Hi, they do both a towable and mounted (3 point linkage )version.
I've found a review from Hortciulture Week in 2009 which was positive (but mainly focussed on turf care) I can't find any for sale second hand.....maybe thats a good sign!!

I had a walk behind/towable garden sprayer from them.  It was expensive but well made.  They rushed it too me, which was good, but there was a loose wire, which was not so good, but they sent me a new one as a replacement and it was quite quickly done, so I shall deffo use them again.
