With this in mind, now is a good time to prepare your mower for the spring cutting season. Sharpen the blades and make sure the engine is running properly. The preferred mowing height for fescue lawns is three to three-and-a-half inches. Many lawns will need cutting once a week when the grass starts actively growing.

Everyone at Eastern Turf Maintenance would like to wish you a Happy New Year and great success in 2012.
