Tips
Sharpen Up For Healthier Grass
- By now, top growth has resumed in your lawn, and you’ll soon be back on a mowing schedule if you aren’t already. Before the first mowing, however, it’s important to make sure that your mower blade is good and sharp.
- Neglecting to change or sharpen your mower blade regularly can be tough on your lawn, with the blade literally becoming a “blunt object” after repeated uses. Dull mower blades, rather then providing a clean, even cut, end up ripping and shredding the tips of grass plants.
- These ripped tips quickly turn brown, giving the entire lawn a less-than-attractive appearance. Plus, shredded tips make it easier for diseases to infect the turf while compromising the lawn’s ability to stand up to all sorts of environmental stresses.
- By having your mower blade sharpened once a month, or at least 2-3 times per season, you will be well on your way to a clean-cut lawn!
