So one question I receive quite a bit is: how do we lay stripes and how do they come out so well on the lawns we cut. Well, it's not rocket science (thankfully), and in this video I wanted to share exactly how we stripe a lawn!
Now I will say this, most major brands of lawn mowers do have striping kits, but we do not currently one run on any of our mowers. To achieve a nice stripe, it really comes down to 3 tips. Number one, freshly sharpened blades!! Number two, a clean scraped deck where you can get as much air flow as possible under the deck. And number three, going blade tip to blade tip, not wheel to wheel!
Now I will say this, not every grass type stripes! And not every lawn will stripe. You have to have a decently thick and lush lawn to get the best appearance possible. But for us up here in Michigan and the mid-west, laying down stripes is what we do! That's the "golf course" manicured look that our customers have come to expect and enjoy.
