How to Mow Like a Lawn Care Professional?

Cutting the lawn is one of those tasks that seem pretty simple – but in reality, it’s not as easy as it looks to do correctly. If you want your lawn to look its best, there are a few key things you need to keep in mind when cutting the lawn.

Here are some tips on how to cut turfgrass like a lawn care pro:

• First and foremost, you need to make sure that you cut it regularly. This means cut yard at least once a week, and more often if necessary. Cutting the yard too little will allow weeds to take over, and your lawns will start to look patchy, requiring weed control as well.

• Be sure to trim around the edges of your lawn, as well as any trees or other obstacles. This will help to keep your turf looking well-manicured and crisp.

• Before you cut your turfgrass sharpen the blades every time for a quality cut. This will ensure not to scalp or damage your turfgrass.

• When you do cut, make sure to cut in a straight line. This may seem like a no-brainer, but you’d be surprised how many people cut the turfgrass in haphazard patterns. Cutting turfgrass in straight lines will give your lawn a neater appearance of turf stripes.

• Finally, don’t forget to fertilize your lawn regularly. This will ensure that your turfgrass stays healthy and green.

By following these simple tips, you can ensure that your lawn will always look its best. And who knows, with a little practice, you might even be able to become a pro lawn care specialist yourself!

How To Trim & Edge Sidewalks Like A Professional

Trimming and edging sidewalks and obstacles is really more of an art combined with years of experience to trim and edge correctly. It’s important to know which way the trimmer head is spinning so the clippings don’t flip into the flower bed. The following tips will help you get the best results possible.

Using a Straight Shaft Trimmer That Spins Counter Clockwise Like a Professional:

Directions looking at The House From The Road

• First thing to do is make sure the string trimmer head is spinning in the correct counter clockwise direction. This will ensure grass clippings are directed away from flower beds, sidewalks, and other obstacles.
• Trim and edge so that you make a loop and not backtrack making it more efficient.
• Start at the street on the right side of the house if you are looking at it and vertically edge the entire park strip of turf between the sidewalk and the road with string trimmer.
• Flip the string trimmer upside down and start edging the outside of the sidewalk and walking backwards so that the string is spinning in the opposite direction and flip debris away from you.
• Stop and horizontally trim any long turfgrass climbing up the base of trees or mailboxes while edging the the gap on the park strip.
• Continue edging the turfgrass and string edge directly into the gap separating the sidewalk and turf and follow that line in a clockwise pattern flipping rocks and dirt in the opposite direction that you are walking to avoid injury or broken windows.
• Always be aware of where the debris from the string trimmer is flying and making sure not to dig in to deep into the crack.
• Don’t give it full throttle unless you need to while trimming the gap lines and always be in control of where the dirt is flipping.
• After you edge around the sidewalk and end up on the right side of the driveway continue to walk to the left side of driveway and edge back towards the left side of the house where it meets the sidewalk on the side strip of the driveway.
• Edge the sidewalk where it meets the left side of the driveway and edge in the gap of dirt between the turf and go around the sidewalk until you meet the road again.
• Head down the left side of the house where the property line meets the neighbors to the left and flat trim with the string trimmer level all the way from the road to the fence that leads to the backyard.
• Horizontally trim from the left side of the house to where the fence opens up.
• Open the fence and start horizontally trimming in a clockwise motion again all the way to the back of the house and around the fence line until you reach the house on the right side.
• Trim and edge around any obstacles in the backyard while your on your way to the fence gate as to not backtrack.
• Flat trim or edge along the back of the house where any patios are making your way to the gate on the left side of the house again.
• Flat trim on the inside and outside of left side fence gate exiting the gate and reaching the driveway on the left side of the house.
• Make your way across the driveway to the right side of the the front of the house where the turf meets the driveway by the garage.
• Horizontally trim again around the flower bed or patio in the front of the house on the right side making your way to the right side of the house where the fence is separating the backyard from the front.
• In the front right turfgrass by the fence vertically trim up the line dividing the house on the right side and make your way back to the road.
