Many gardeners spend considerable time and money to produce a healthy, attractive lawn.
Fertilizers are applied to promote root and shoot growth and produce a dark green lawn. When necessary, herbicides are used to control crabgrass and broadleaf weeds. While fertilization and weed control are important aspects of lawn maintenance, proper mowing is another vital key. In fact, many turfgrass problems can be traced back to improper mowing. Mowing height and frequency are the most important aspects of mowing.
