cut a new lawn when it is about 3-4 inches long and set your mower to it's highest setting and have the blade sharp

then cut every 2 weeks at this setting for about 6 months then gradually lower to the setting you want

When the new grass is around 3 inches long you should give it a light cut just taking the top inch off. This will encourage it to thicken. Repeat this process 3 times and then cut as normal and enjoy a perfect lawn.

You can start cutting it when it gets over about 4 inches long. Just don't take more that 1/3 of the length off and leave it longer than 3 inches in the summer. If you have a mulching lawn mower that is a good way to go too. "Cut it high and let it lie"

this depends on the type of mower you have, and the type of lawn you have, if its turf, at least three weeks, if its from seed at least until the grass has reached a hieght of two to three inches all over
you can trim any mounds of grass formed when seed has not been dispersed correctly, with garden shears , this will allow catch up with the rest of the lawn, a electric cylinder mower is my preffered mower to start the cut, rotory hover type can damage a new lawn

lift up one corner of the new grass and make sure it as rooted if so then you can cut the grass as mentioned a litle at a time, starting on the highest seting and gradually getting lower over time. All the best

lots of human beings falsely declare it extremely is using inexpensive exertions. it extremely is an impossible argument by using fact of minimum salary. 2nd off a brilliant style of those men (Mexicans) gets a commission better than minimum salary. I actual have been in the panorama organisation because i grow to be sixteen and the explanation why there Mexicans and no White toddlers is using the fact the white toddlers do no longer final, they arrive then they dont like the artwork so they give up. Mexicans will actually do something you tell them to be certain you later as you pay them on time. once I first began out, each and every of the Mexicans who have been working longer than I had, have been getting paid better than me, that they had extra journey and better skills. the final analysis is it extremely is the final American male who has enjoyed a severe huge-unfold of residing attributable to capitalism now they do no longer opt to get their hands grimy

When it is a couple of inches long,only use hand shears because a lawn mower will pull it right out.

Between 1pm and 7pm. Grass is way too wet in the morning to cut.
