As a retired semi-professional lawn care professional.. I recommend starting your stripes from the middle of the area you're mowing, then work towards one side from there, then do the other half. Try and get fancy with some diagonal stripes.

In my younger years I worked for a local lawn care company. We used the string trimmer first, going around all the objects and flower beds leaving enough room for the mower to not risk hitting anything. Then use the mowers. While the mower was doing its thing, get the edgers out and start cleaning up stuff. If it was one of those more fancy looking yards, use the mower with the clippings bin attached. I think I'm remembering the steps mostly right. Oh yeah, pay attention to which way your trimmer is spinning. It sucks to shoot a tiny rock toward the old lady's glass storm door.

@voprais3 жыл бұрын
You should use the trimmer BEFORE the mower, especially when the grass is this tall. Why? Because the trimmer will throw bits of grass and other stuff everywhere, which the mower will pick up for you. If you mow before trimming, then you'll need to clean it up manually with a rake, which is a PITA and takes a lot of time.

Ugh no, why? I used to fight with my Uncle when i was younger because he demanded i weed wack first. This made 0 sense to me and took significantly more time. You end up weedwacking things you don't need to because mower can get to it, and if it's really long grass your always wading through tall grass to trim first. When i would use mower first, it was significantly more efficient, and our lawn wasn't fancy enough to notice any difference in where the little bits of grass was thrown. It was farm way out in middle of nowhere with crap ass grass anyway. Only way i can see your argument making sense is if I was cutting some rich persons lawn that is perfectly manicured and cares about how the clippings are distributed.

They'd mow it for a showing, you usually see them do a circle pattern around the track to show where the horses are to run if it's a grass track as well as the middle to keep it prim, and if it's a dirt track, they'll still keep it cut as most of the time you will be feeding racing horses with your own fodder, or you'll get fodder from the track, you want the horse eating the best type of energy before and after a race to keep them in tip top shape. It very much depends on the track, but most of the time you won't be doing stripes as such, you will be forcing wheel lines to mark out clear lines while keeping the grass uniform, some just want it cut to look uniform for ascetic reasons. If anyone cares.
