Hola ๐ seรฑor Silver Cymbal!!! That was a great video, very educational and I have learned the hard way about to stop doing the mower too close to the edge causing bald spots and damaging the blade with small rocks ๐ข๐ข๐ข

I swap my mowing direction every time I mow. If I mowed northeast and southwest last week, then I do northwest and south east thus week.i also do 3 laps around the perimeter before I start my diagonal cuts.
-
I'd also suggest you learn which way your string trimmer rotates. If you go the opposite direction, the grass will kick back into the flower bed. If you go the right direction, the grass goes back into the yard.

I use an EDGE TRIMMER, for edging. A STRING TRIMMER, for touching up around walls, etc. One week I mow in one direction, and next week the next one. When I'm done, I go around and remove whatever pesky weed is trying to come out. 4 summers in professional grounds keeping crews taught me well for life.

Looks great! I mow at #4 on Ego after June 1 for Summer, Hydrotain down and looking good.

-

-
love the lawn vids on this channel
-
For once I'm already a pro at something you do and post about!

Im in Florida and I have realized I need to mow it 1-2x week to help keep the lawn healthy, keep weeds at a minimum and keep it easier to maintain. Trust me I wish I could do it every 2 weeks but I did that for almost 1 year and my lawn had suffered from terrible weeds, uneven growth and more energy needed from me since grass was higher.

I always alternate- E/W, N/S diagonal left, diagonal right. Learned this from George Toma- heads groundskeeper at Kauffman Stadium.
-
The advice and testing from you and Project Farm can set people up for success for life.

Advice is specific to cool season lawns of course. Down south most warm season trophy lawns are reel cut 0.5"-1.25". Not how the professional mow/blow/go crews would do it, its even better, how an obsessed lawn geek would do it. And a lawn geek wants those stripes!
-
Good info, never thought to change directions occasionally. You have a really nice house!
-
Great tip about how to edge. Thanks
-
I need to get my yard looking nice itโs one of my biggest goals I want for my house.

Question in regards to the actual process of mowing a lawn, anyone can just push a mower around a lawn any which way, but when mowing back an forth across the lawn, is there a specific amount of overlap needed from one pass to the next? I ask due to the fact that the sharpened end of mower blades does not actually go the full length of the mower blade itself.
