The more I learn about grass care, the stupider I get
Just out surfing the net feeling frustrated about all this information on grass care.
I came across a little snippet that makes me feel really stupid. Basically it’s about mowing. And I’ve been mowing a lot more with my moterless grass care mower (Likin’ the exercise more than I thought I would - I guess). Come to find out even how you run around your yard makes a difference. You’ve got to be kidding me!
I always thought those commercial grass care guys were cool on their hovercraft floating around and making the grass look all striped and stuff. So I wanted to do that in my back yard. (You can get a peek at it on my video below). So I go back and forth and I’ve made little grooves in my grass. I thought that was the secret. Now I find out you are supposed to vary the way you mow for the health of your lawn. I’m feeling the hatred well within me for my grass…
So driving ruts into your yard isn’t the way to do that. I have no idea how to make that happen. I guess I’ll have to do some research. Anybody know where I can find this out. And if it’s a lot of effort, I don’t know that I’ll even be interested.
