What should be avoided when mowing grass with a lawn mower?
Mowing the lawn too short: Mowing the lawn too short is one of the most undesirable behaviors. This can cause the grass to lose too many leaves, rely on energy reserves to survive, put excessive pressure on the lawn, reduce its disease resistance, increase the number of weeds, and accelerate water loss
Excessive pruning at one time: The amount of pruning at one time should not be too large. The 1/3 rule should be followed, that is, each pruning should not exceed one-third of the grass height
Mowing at inappropriate times: Avoid mowing at noon when it's hot and when the lawn is relatively dry. Watering should be done 1 to 2 hours after pruning. Pruning should not be carried out when there is no water supply and the climate is dry and hot
Neglecting machine inspection: Failing to check the blades, screws, fuel tank, wires or fuel pipes, etc. before operation may lead to safety hazards or affect the lawn mowing effect
Uncleared work area: Obstacles such as stones, branches, and metal fragments in the work area have not been removed, which may cause blade damage or accidents. Not wearing protective equipment: Long-sleeved clothing, long pants, sturdy shoes, goggles, gloves, and earplugs are not worn during operation, increasing the risk of injury
The specific periods for excessive mowing are: the early spring green-up period, the midsummer dormancy period, one month before the late autumn withering and yellowing, and after the occurrence of infectious diseases on the lawn. Generally, no mowing is carried out
Repeatedly mowing the same area: For the same lawn, avoid multiple repeated mowing at the same time, at the same point, and in the same direction.
Watering or exercising immediately after mowing: Do not water, exercise or spray pesticides or fertilizers immediately after mowing.
The blade is not sharp: The blade should be frequently ground and maintained; otherwise, it will not only affect the appearance but also easily cause diseases
