Four Quick Tips for a healthy lawn

Maintaining a healthy and good looking lawn takes work. Here are a few lawn mowing tips:.

1. Mow your lawn regularly cutting no more than 1/3 of the blade each time. Regular mowing helps create a dense turf.
   
2. Sharpen your mower blades because sharp blades will slice the grass rather than tear it. This causes less stress to the plant.
   
3. Avoid cutting grass too short. Try setting your mower height to around  2.5 to 3". The taller grass will develop deeper roots and stay greener during dry periods.
   
4. Skip the bagging of your grass clippings. Clipping left on the lawn will break down and create nitrogen. This reduces your need for fertilizer.
