Maintain Your Lawn With Better Lawn Mowing Tips

One of the better lawn mowing tips, is to mow the lawn quite often during the spring and less often in the hot summer. Mowing your lawn every four to seven days during spring time, will help to maintain a healthy lawn.

In the summer when it’s the hottest, cutting the lawn to a higher level, helps to build a deeper root system, support future healthy growth and avoid dead patches on your lawn.

While mowing your lawn, do not cut more than about 1/3 of the leaf blades on the grass. If you do, then this can cause injury and the leaves are likely to become brown. Similarly, mow your lawn at a height of about 2.5 to 3 inches.

Bent grass should be cut anywhere between 1 to 1.5 inches. Cutting the grass at these heights exposes newly germinated weed seeds and also encourages other weeds like dandelions that grow upright, making them easier to cut off.
