What should I do if I cut my grass too short?

• <div><p>If your grass is stressed from being over-trimmed, try watering it heavily and then allowing it to recover for at least two weeks before mowing again. If you notice <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-are-brown-patches-my-grass.htm">brown patches</a> where the grass has died off because it’s too short, you should remove the dead grass and overseed the area. Leaving dead patches can invite weeds and other problems, so if you want a totally green lawn, getting rid of dead patches should include removing the dead sections before reseeding the area.</p></div>

Lawn Care questions, answered by experts

If your grass is stressed from being over-trimmed, try watering it heavily and then allowing it to recover for at least two weeks before mowing again. If you notice brown patches where the grass has died off because it’s too short, you should remove the dead grass and overseed the area. Leaving dead patches can invite weeds and other problems, so if you want a totally green lawn, getting rid of dead patches should include removing the dead sections before reseeding the area.

The look of an overwatered lawn is likely the first thing to tip you off. Overwatered lawns don’t look green and lush. They’ll often be yellowed and mushy or appear patchy and thinning.

Most signs of an overwatered lawn are visual; if your grass looks off, the lawn is likely over or underwatered.

Longer lengths are always better for striping, so mowing your grass to between 2½ to 4 inches tall. More length allows for optimal bendiness, plus it helps your lawn stay healthier, too. Remember, never mow more than ⅓ of the grass height at once to keep your lawn looking green and healthy.

Your St. Augustine grass might look bad due to cold winter months, drought, pest invasion, or lawn disease. The first step is properly identifying the problem. Once you’ve figured out what’s making your grass look bad, you’ll need to employ the correct treatments. These treatments may include:

Properly mow your lawn and keep the clippings on the lawn as organic matter.
Use healthy irrigation techniques.
Use the right amount of fertilizer.
Keep up a good, regular maintenance routine.
Use fungicides.

Lawn care is tough work—even when you hire pros, there’s no guarantee your grass won’t die (unless, of course, your company offers a guarantee). But lawn care companies don’t control the rain or watering restrictions. Your type of grass also impacts the type of care required to keep a lush lawn—and how much that care costs. Talk to a lawn care pro to determine the best times to treat your lawn based on type of grass and your climate.
