What's this?

The 3 times per month might not be enough in September


In September and October (especially October, down here in NC), the temperatures aren't blazing, and the cool season fescue starts growing faster.....I may be mowing every 5 days then....3 times a month would mean my lawn would get toooo long.

In the spring, there are times when mowing every 4 days isn't enough.

A side thought, do you aerate every year (fall preferred)? Is that included (should be for good lawn health)?
