Q: Why did people stop using reel mowers?

• <div><p>The American ideal of a large, perfectly-manicured lawn is tied to the post-World War II suburban housing boom.

Many Americans came to see reel mowers as old-fashioned, inconvenient, and time-consuming, and they eventually fell out of fashion. </p></div>

Q: Are there signs my lawn needs more frequent treatment?

• <div><p>Yellow patches, poor growth, or widespread weeds indicate a need for treatment. Soil testing can confirm nutritional deficiencies that require intervention.</p></div>

Q: Can you permanently get rid of nutgrass?
