LAWN CARE
Q. How often should I mow?
A. Frequently! Remember that the grass blades are the food producers for the plant. Removing too much leaf in a cutting can shock, yellow, and kill some of the leaves.
Therefore: Never remove more than one-third of the leaf surface in a cutting. (Cutting frequency will vary from twice a week in optimum growth periods to less than weekly as it shows down.) If you get behind in your cutting, set the mower up to accommodate the "one-third" rule. Follow in a day or two with a cutting at the regular height.
