How to Cut Your Grass for the Last Time of the Season

Grass

With colder weather moving into the area, your grass won’t grow nearly as quickly as it was during the summer months.

When your grass stops growing it means it’s time to mow your lawn one final time. Here are some tips to guide you:

·      When temperatures dip below 50°F during the daylight hours, it typically means that grass will stop growing

·      The best grass height going into winter is between 2 and 2.5 inches

·      Even if it’s the last cut of the year, don’t remove more than one-third of the grass height in one mow

·      If necessary, spread out several cuts over a week or two to reach your desired height

Also, fall is one of the best times to feed and fertilize your lawn, so make sure you do this before it gets too cold. The food you supply your lawn this fall will help it come back stronger than ever when the spring season arrives.

With these tips, you know exactly how to treat your lawn during the final couple months of fall. Even if it takes a bit of extra work, you’ll be glad that you did it when warmer temperatures move into the area in 2020.

Excellent service. Any question I had was addressed in a friendly yet professional manner. I have used Pond before for replacement windows and siding and most recently for new roofing. I highly recommend them for their responsiveness and the high quality of their work.

Nancy P.

Easy communication with tons of photos and excellent job! Pond Roofing even came back to replace the color of the shingles to our satisfaction. The property was in McLean and they made me look great since my landlord client was very impressed. The swag cookies to our tenants was an added bonus. :-) Thanks so much!

Laura M.

Very fast initial response time and great customer service. Repair work was done (by prearrangement) while we had to be out of town and it looks great now that we are back. We have used Pond before and would call them first if we need roofing work in the future. Thanks!

Scott C.

Great communication, very professional repair crew. We have a new construction house that had some issues with vent seals after 10yrs and Pond fixed 8 different areas in one day--very happy with the work.

Ryan H.

I recently hired Pond Roofing to check out a leak. They did a great job coming in on time and to troubleshoot the issue. Their pricing was competitive and overall service was excellent. I’m very happy with their work.

Hassan W.

Pond Roofing was very responsive and knowledgeable about the condition of our roof. They delivered before the expected date and their work was impeccable. I cannot recommend working with Shanti enough.

Erin M.

Quality and Integrity. Terrific job on a roof repair. Called for a minor fix which was expertly accomplished. Patrick performed a complete inspection, ensuring no other damage or work needed. Perfect!
