Q: When should you cut grass for the first time in spring?

• <div><p>When spring arrives, it&rsquo;s best to hold off on mowing until temperatures have consistently reached a temperature of at least <b>40 degrees Fahrenheit</b>. Attempting to mow grass that hasn't fully thawed from its winter dormancy can harm the delicate blades. Ensure your grass is dry before mowing and aim to mow when the grass is about three to four inches tall, trimming no more than one-third of the grass blade's height at a time. This timing encourages healthy growth and prevents shock to the grass, preparing your lawn for a happy, healthy growing season.</p></div>

Q: Is 7 a.m. too late to water grass?

• <div><p>Many experts say anytime before 10 a.m. is a good time to water grass, but this does depend a bit on the climate conditions where you live. For example, if you live in South Florida and it&rsquo;s already 95 degrees by 7:30 a.m., it may simply be too hot to effectively water your lawn, regardless of what the time is.</p></div>

Q: Does buffalo grass spread easily?

• <div><p>Buffalo grass spreads through both underground roots and above-ground stolons. The widespread root and stolon system makes up for this grass&rsquo;s overall lack of density. It&rsquo;s a hearty grass, so it spreads on its own slowly, especially considering that most of the male (no staminate) varieties of grass are sterile. You may think about over-maintaining your lawn to encourage growth, but this would have the opposite effect.</p></div>

Q: How do I know if my lawn mower can handle leaves?

• <div><p>A standard home lawn mower with sharp blades can handle a thin layer of leaves without issue. You may need to make a couple of passes within several days to mulch leaves down, but your mower shouldn&rsquo;t struggle. If your mower comes with a mulching kit, like an attachment to blow leaves out the side, that&rsquo;s a good sign it&rsquo;s ready for fall leaves. Set your mower to the highest or near-highest height for this project so it focuses on the leaves rather than the grass below.</p></div>

Q: What follow-up care is recommended after professional aeration?

• <div><p>Implement overseeding and fertilization to maximize aeration benefits and strengthen your lawn.</p></div>
