Q: How wet is too wet to mow grass?

• <div><p>Any amount of wetness is too much to mow grass, including morning dew. When you mow wet grass, you&rsquo;re more likely to damage your grass blades and your mower. Fungal diseases are more likely to grow and spread, and you could tear your blades instead of cutting them crisply, leading to brown tips. It&rsquo;s best to wait until your grass is dry to mow and keep up with <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/8-maintenance-tips-keep-your-lawn-mower-running.htm">lawn mower maintenance</a>.</p></div>

Q: How many miles per hour can you mow?

• <div><p>Depending on your lawn mower type, you can mow anywhere from 2.5 to 13 miles per hour (mph). A simple push lawn mower will take the longest to mow at 2.5 mph, which is just under the average walking pace. Riding mowers can go significantly faster. Rear engines come in at around 5 mph, tractors come in at just shy of 8 mph, and zero-turn mowers come in at the fastest speed of 13 mph.</p></div>

Q: Is it illegal to mow your lawn early in the morning?

• <div><p>No, it isn&rsquo;t illegal, but many cities and towns have noise ordinances that it could violate. Either way, it can still cause problems if it bothers your neighbors. For motor-powered lawnmowers, the general consensus for common courtesy is to wait until after 8 a.m. to mow your lawn. However, if you have a push mower, you should be safe to mow at any time of day, provided you don&rsquo;t make excessive noise in other ways.</p></div>

Q: Should I water my lawn every day in hot weather?

• <div><p>No, you shouldn&rsquo;t water your lawn every day in hot weather&mdash;or ever. For most lawns, one to three water sessions per week is sufficient. When it&rsquo;s above 95 degrees Fahrenheit, watering your grass can be wasteful since the heat from the sun often evaporates the water before your lawn fully absorbs it. That&rsquo;s why the <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/water-lawn-hot-weather.htm">best time to water grass</a> in summer is at dawn or in the early evening (between 4 p.m. and 6 p.m.).</p></div>

Q: How much does professional lawn care cost?

• <div><p>Routine <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-landscaping-cost.htm#">lawn care costs</a> between <b>$50 and $250</b> per service, with an average of around <b>$100</b>.
