When to mow

In the summer, mowing in the cool evening is a good time to mow. It is good for you and your grass. Grass is less stressed by the heat in the cool evening. Mowing in the hot heat can be brutal not only for you, but for the grass as well.

 

Don't let grass grow to tall because it can get traumatized when cutting.
