Question: Why can't I wait longer between mowings, reducing time spent on lawn care?
This question really boils down to a more basic question: Why do we bother mowing lawns? This lawn mowing FAQ provides the reason....
Answer: Aesthetics aside, there's a good lawn-care reason not to wait longer in between mowings, each time simply mowing the lawn when the grass is higher and reducing the overall number of mowings. Sure, such a policy would reduce time spent on lawn care. But you get out of lawn care what you put into it.
It may come as a surprise that mowing the lawn is about more than just keeping your lawn's height under control. If done properly (see next lawn care FAQ), mowing stimulates the grass of your lawn to lushness and better health, just as pinching a garden plant can improve its appearance. Proper mowing technique is an important aspect of overall lawn care.
