How to Mow and Water Properly for a Healthy Lawn
Mowing and Watering properly are key ingredients to a healthy, organic lawn. Mowing high, approximately 3.5–4.5 inches, and mowing often will keep your lawn greener and suppress weeds naturally. Watering incorrectly can cause more damage than not watering at all.
Mowing is the most important thing you can do to keep your lawn looking good. Mowing incorrectly can turn your grass brown and encourage weeds like Crabgrass to invade.
If you would like your lawn to stay green over the Summer, you'll need to water it. If you water too often or at the wrong times of day, you encourage disease, such as brown spots, invite grass destroying insects, and help weeds sprout. In many cases you would be better off not watering at all than watering incorrectly.
