Is it time to start cutting the grass ?

Yes you can cut the grass as long as there is not frost on the lawn or the soil is frozen. Just remember to raise the height and give the lawn a light cut. The first cut should merely "top" the grass as close cutting at this stage could result in severe yellowing or browning.

Also in February you need to do the following rake the grass thoroughly. Spike the lawn to aerate and stimulate soil organisms and root growth and apply lawn sand if necessary.

Thanks Lawny, phew!

I haven't got a lawn. What should I do?

You could if you are feeling left out cut your neighbors grass when they are out or if you have a push pull mower you could go to a local park or roadside verge.

Remember we are your friends and we are here to help.

Cheers Lawny. A light trim is on the way.

Knecht, do you have a bush?

I'm working on it, Czar.

The fooking grass/ moss never stops growing in my garen.

Ask Knecht to cut it.

Too far away, anyway I enjoy a good mow.
