Is there a right and a wrong time for lawnmowing?

By David Beaulieu, About.com

Question: Is there a right and a wrong time for lawnmowing?

Answer: Yes. Lawnmowing should not be done when the grass is wet (under which conditions disease can be introduced, plus you incur the risk of slipping and getting injured). Also, lawnmowing in the evening puts less stress on the lawn than lawnmowing when the sun is pounding down in the afternoon.
