Hedges

We're getting close to hedge clipping season, so I started already. Clipping hedges is not so bad, though it's a drag when you try to do so much of it at a time. It's even more of a drag when it's raining and soggy, so a cool sunny day such as today is probably the best I can do.

I'm working with the manual shears. Manual shears do not rip the leaves and branches as the electric shears do.

The toughest part can be cleanup. But if you clip often enough, not only do you run into fewer thick branches, you can also sweep up the debris in a matter of minutes.
