Proper Mowing is King

You can fertilize at the right time, water properly, spray for weeds and insects etc., if the lawn is mowed too short, it's potential is greatly diminished

Bar none, My customers that have the highest mowing height, all have the best looking yards.

I can tell which customer is bagging their grass and the ones leaving the clipping or mulching.

A higher mowing height will:

. Create a deeper, and stonger root system

. Which promotes a greeer grass plant with more blade surface

. A longer grass plant helps shade soil, keeping it cooler

. Which helps retain mositure saving watering, time and money.

Using a mulching mower breaks down the grass clippings quicker feeding your soil fresh grass every week.

This builds up the quality of your soil and it is almost like magic what it does for your yard.
