How to prepare your lawn for mowing

The grass cutting season is now upon us and already my lawns have started to make a fair amount of growth, despite being wet in places. If you start mowing fairly early in the season it is easier to keep the grass neatly trimmed and looking good. If you allow the grass to grow long before the first cut, it is more difficult to cut and scalping the lawn spoils its appearance and can actually harm the grass. This landscaping tutorial teaches you how to prepare your lawn before the first mow of spring.
