Depends on when you have time or if you have time. We do so much of it unless there is a sure chance of rain that discbine is working every day. We usually have one guy mowing in the morning and another tedding the hay that was mowed the day before, both finishing about noon. Meanwhile the other two of us and any help we can get are unloading they baled hay from the day before too eating lunch and continuing till we are done or it is time to bale. Right after lunch or before, weather permitting, we start to rake the recently tedded hay and bale when ready. Start the whole thing over the next day and go till each cutting is done with usually a week or 10 days between cuttings, three full cuttings a year and part of a fourth... everything weather permitting of course and schedueled around the other operations such as milking, sidedressing, delivering hay and whatnot. Been pretty profitiable recently unlike most farming operations!
