Todays tip is regarding how to not leave divots or some best practices to not rut up a lawn! I know it's a simple topic for a lot of us, but I've actually received this question quite a bit, so here you go!
When I first got started cutting lawns, I tell you what, I had zero resources. To me it was simply retrace the same lines from the week before, and rinse and repeat. Oh how little I knew! (and still do sometimes!).
What I soon realized was that we were creating divots or little bumps and grooves in the lawn, that it was starting to affect the mowing quality of the work we were doing. Every now and then I would change directions, but it was really an afterthought. There wasn't really any rhyme or reason behind it.
Well today we're going to share with you guys a simple little practice you can incorporate into your business, and that is changing up your mowing direction weekly. There is nothing more ascetically pleasing as well in my opinion than a nice striped lawn with a cross pattern added to it.
Whether you go N to S, E to W, or diagonal, changing up the mowing pattern is a great habit to get into. It really helps alleviate any compaction you may be contributing to with the lawn mower, and help to not create deep ruts or grooves in the lawn. Best tip I can give you, change up the direction every week!
Hope this one helped you guys out! I wish someone explained something like this to me when I was first getting started, even as simple as a topic as it is.
Curious, do you guys also offer lawn rolling as an additional service to your clients to help with the after affects of a regular mowing season and constant wear and tear from the heavy lawn mowers we use? Love to hear your guys thoughts, leave us a comment down below!
