Never cut more than one-third of the grass blade length in a single mowing. This prevents stress and maintains healthy root development.
Early morning cuts are best when grass is dry from dew but not stressed by midday heat. Avoid cutting wet grass to prevent disease spread.
Dull mower blades tear grass, creating brown edges and increasing disease susceptibility. Keep blades professionally sharpened.
Raise cutting height in summer heat and drought. Lower slightly in spring and autumn for optimal growth and winter preparation.
