Optimal Lawn Mowing Schedule
Proper timing for lawn mowings ensures a healthy, attractive lawn. The optimal mowing schedule depends on grass type, growth rate, and seasonal conditions. Regular mowing encourages dense growth and prevents pests and weeds from establishing.
Begin mowing when grass starts actively growing, typically when it reaches about 3 inches. Regular mowing promotes healthy growth and prepares the lawn for summer.
Maintain a height of 2.5 to 3 inches during peak growing months. Frequent mowing prevents heat stress and discourages pests.
Gradually reduce mowing frequency as growth slows. Keeping grass at a consistent height helps protect roots during winter.
Mowing is generally not necessary when grass is dormant. Avoid mowing during frost or when the ground is wet to prevent damage.
