Lawn Care questions, answered by experts

While there’s no exact science to how often you should rake your leaves, a good rule of thumb to follow is to rake leaves every three to four days. However, you can rake more often or less often, depending on how quickly leaves are accumulating on your lawn.

It’s best to mow your lawn in the early evening on a clear day. Avoid cutting your grass too early in the morning because it might still be damp with dew—and mowing your lawn when it’s wet is harder on your grass and your mower. Also, try not to mow during the hottest point of the day because the harsh sunlight and high temperatures can put extra stress on the grass.

During normal temperatures, you should mow about once per week. However, if your grass is distressed by extreme heat, you should avoid mowing it altogether. Wait until after an irrigation session or rainfall. That way, your grass will be good and hydrated before you mow. Remember, you should not mow the grass when it’s wet. Wait until it dries first.

Usually, weekly mowings during the growing season are sufficient. However, you’ll need to consider your location and lawn care—grass that incurs more rain or fertilizer tends to grow faster than those in drier climates. Another thing to contemplate is mowing your grass to the correct height . Most grasses should stay around 2 to 3 inches, although several warm-weather grasses do better shorter—at 1 ½ to 2 inches.

When your sod is new, you should keep an eye on it to prevent dehydration. As new sod plants its roots into the soil beneath it, it can easily get dehydrated and start to turn brown. Keeping a consistent watering schedule for your new sod will help prevent this issue and will help it thrive as it roots into your yard.

Once your sod is about six weeks old, you can start to establish a regular lawn maintenance routine, complete with mowing, edging, and fertilizing.
