Lawn Care Prosper, TX

Weekly lawn mowing is important for the warm season; however, many homeowners make the mistake of mowing too short in hopes of not having to mow too often. This can really damage the grass and add to your weed problem, because you’re exposing your topsoil to invasive plant species.

Ideally, you don’t want to cut off more than 3/4 of an inch of the grass blades. This keeps your grass roots healthy and strong. Strong grass roots means less weeds.

Additionally, a denser grass bed (either by thickness or by height) leaves less room for weeds to take root. The point is, you want your grass a bit longer in the summer for multiple reasons.
