One of the key factors for maintaining a healthy lawn is mowing it at the proper height. Avoid cutting your grass too short, as it weakens the roots, makes it more susceptible to pests and diseases, and allows weeds to invade. The recommended mowing height varies depending on the type of grass, but a general rule of thumb is to trim only one-third of the grass blades at a time. This ensures the grass can still photosynthesize and promotes root development. By following the proper mowing height, you will have a thicker, greener, and more resilient lawn that can better withstand stressors such as drought or foot traffic.
