What is the key to a beautiful lawn?

Regularity is the key to effective mowing. The rule of thumb is to reduce the height of the grass by one-fourth to one-third. If you mow to 1.5 inches then at about 2.25 inches it's time to mow again - usually a week or less. If you wait too long and reduce the height by half or more at one time, especially in hot weather, the delay can cost you. A yellow tinge may appear indicating root shock, which may take weeks to recover. The grass will recover and grow back but the weakened lawn is now more susceptible to weed germination. Regularity - mowing, watering and feeding - will encourage your lawn to better health and appearance!
