Mowing
Never cut more than a third of the blade at once
Cutting too much at one time (scalping) stresses the roots, invites weeds, and browns the lawn in Georgia heat. Mow more often and take less off each time.

Lawn tips from Dylan
Short, practical advice for keeping a Georgia lawn healthy.
Mowing
Skip the hottest part of the day
Grass handles a cut better when it isn't the hottest part of the day. Morning or evening is easier on a freshly cut lawn.
Finishing touches
Clippings on the sidewalk is an unfinished job
Clippings left on sidewalks and driveways wash into storm drains and make a fresh cut look unfinished. I blow off the hard surfaces before I leave every job.
