Dad's little-known lawn mower trick gives you 'thick and healthy' grass in summer Many homeowners would rather do anything else than face the boring chore of cutting the grass - but one garden expert has issued a stark warning about the common blunders people make with their lawn mowers.
Lastly, Bo pointed out that if your grass has ripped ends, it's likely due to dull lawn mower blades.
For the summer months, Bo suggested less frequent mowing and keeping the grass longer to protect the roots from the scorching sun with shade.
Finally, the guru suggested using lawn clippings as mulch, noting: "The trick is you have to mow often and it helps if you really love your mower.".
Bo also advised: "Inspect your grass every few months to look for ripped cuts, that will tell you it's time.".
