Mowing
Your lawn is a living plant, and as with any living thing, change (good or bad) causes stress. Each time you mow your lawn you are putting it under stress.
For the best results and for minimizing stress –
-
Mow high – Set your mower high. Most of our cool season grasses are best if mowed to 2 1/2"-3”.
-
Do not mow during the hottest part of the day.
-
Do not mow when the grass is wet.
-
Keep the blades on your mower sharp.
Never take off more than 1/3 of the grass blade at a time. If lawn is really long,
mow 1/3 off the top and wait 4 or 5 days and take another 1/3 off.
