heights
are approximate

tions,
height
of grass

2-1/2" during the cool season
and
to over

hot
months.

healthier
and better
looking
lawns,
mow
often
and after moderate
growth.
• For best cutting
performance,
grass over
6" in height should
be mowed twice.
Make
the first cut relatively
high; the second
to
desired
height.
