Remember to mow your lawn

This needs to be done weekly at least. The frequency and cutting height depend on your lawn's quality and the time of year. A summer height of 1-2.5cm (0.5-1in) is good for a general purpose lawn if mown only weekly.

High quality, well managed turf can be mown as short as 0.5cm (0.25in) when mown every two to three days.
