Q: Is there a wrong way to mow a lawn?

• <div><p>You can mow a lawn the wrong way by cutting off more than ⅓ of the grass's height, causing stress to the lawn and weak roots. If you don't cut your grass often enough, you&rsquo;ll get weeds and cause damage to your mower and grass. But if you regularly mow your lawn and create straight lines in alternating directions, you&rsquo;ll see great results.</p></div>

Q: What is the best time of day to mow the lawn?

• <div><p>The best times to mow your lawn are mid-morning or early evening. Mowing in the mid-morning, around 10 a.m., allows any dew to evaporate so the grass is dry. Cutting dry grass is easier on both the lawn and the mower, and this timing gives the grass blades time to recover in the sunlight before the peak afternoon heat. Alternatively, you can mow in the late afternoon or early evening once the heat of the day has passed. Avoid mowing too early in the morning when the grass is still wet with dew, and try not to mow during the hottest part of the day, as high temperatures and harsh sunlight can put extra stress on the grass.</p></div>

Q: Does Bermuda grass spread?

• <div><p>Bermuda grass is one of the fastest-growing <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/warm-or-cool-season-grass-right-choice-your-lawn.htm">warm-season grasses</a> because of its system of aboveground stems (stolons) and below-ground stems (rhizomes). Adequate water and sunlight in a warmer climate will nurture the spread of Bermuda grass. This rapid growth rate makes Bermuda grass resilient and effective at choking weeds. However, this aggressive advancement can also make the grass difficult to contain and control.</p></div>

Q: Is carpetgrass the same thing as St. Augustine grass?

• <div><p>No, carpetgrass and St. Augustine grass are two different species. However this is a very common misconception and you may even find St. Augustine grass is mislabeled as carpetgrass. Carpetgrass does not have as much shade tolerance as St. Augustine grass, and has narrower blades with an alternating pattern (while St. Augustine grass has an opposite pattern). St. Augustine grass doesn&rsquo;t have the weedy, high seedheads that carpetgrass produces.</p></div>

Q: What month does grass stop growing?

• <div><p>Your grass-growing schedule depends on where you live and the variety of grass in your lawn. Cool-season grasses typically stop between November and April with a slowdown at the peak of summer. Warm-season grasses will slow when temperatures drop below 55 degrees Fahrenheit in December and January. Hiring a great <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/who-can-i-hire-to-do-yard-work.htm">lawn care team</a> can help you pinpoint the right moment to cut back on mowing.</p></div>
