cutting
and root growth.... the key to a healthy lawn
i can hardly keep up with the lawn.... this year
with it raining constantly....
but i have noticed that many home owners mow it
real short like it's a putting green at a golf course.
i try to keep it at around 3 inches and have no fungus.
in springtime:
i let it grow to six inches before i cut it back to four.
this shades out the weeds completely
then it's just a maintenance cut of one inch...
the longer the blade of grass you have the more
photosynthesis each grass plant can maintain.
