What is the mowing edge?

With edging, an actual cut is made in the lawn. This "edge" lines the grass and borders or sidewalks. Trimming is cutting grass in spaces your lawn mower can't reach, such as against a wall or fence.

How do you mow nice lines?

When you come to the end of a row, lift the mower deck as you turn, then mow in the opposite direction next to your previous pass. To get that fancy checkerboard look, mow the lawn a second time at 90 degrees to your first mowing. Finish by mowing a strip around the edges of the lawn.

What are the best times to mow the lawn?

Mid-morning or late afternoon is usually the best time to mow the lawn. If done too early in the morning, the lawn will be damp with dew, which can cause the grass to tear rather than cut cleanly, leading to disease. Midday can be too hot, and the intense sun can stress the newly cut grass, but it is not too bad a time.

Why you shouldn't cut wet grass?

It's best to wait for wet grass to dry before mowing. Wet grass clippings can clog your mower, causing it to choke and spit out clumps of wet grass that could smother and kill your lawn if left unraked. It's best to wait for wet grass to dry before mowing.

Do you start lawn mowers on grass?

Before you begin, check the blade is sharp and set the mower deck for the recommended height of your grass. Start the mower on a flat area. Keep the blade or blade deck up until the mower is on the grass.
