Nothing is more fundamental to the needs of a healthy lawn than good mowing practices, especially in hot weather.
– Keep the mower set high so the grass has the chance to create shade and cool the soil.
– Mow often enough to prevent the removal of more than 1/3 of the grass blade. The mower’s highest setting is preferred in most cases.
– Avoid mowing (or playing on) wet grass to prevent the spread of turf diseases.
In short, mow high, mow often, and keep mowers off wet grass. Please call right away if you see brown spots in your lawn. We will promptly diagnose the cause and consult with you about treatment options.
