Allen, you usually won't see any results in such a short period. If you want any extra info on working out, look at Athlean X youtube channel w/Jeff Cavalier. He's not your "usual" fitness channel, he actually knows what he's doing and has the resume to back it up.

That’s right LCN, I just use a regular battery 🔋 mower, but I do mow 2 to 3 times a week 👍🏾 and a sharp blade is a must. 16:56

Been watching Allyn for years now. He is absolutely right. Like he says “the more you mow the better it will grow”. I listened to this advice years ago and saw great results. Thank you LCN 🍻🍻

I started reel mowing my bermuda this year. I’m mowing every other day and enjoying it more than ever.

[@8_one_8]

What length are you keeping it at ?

[@jckclt]

I wish I could reel cut mine, but my yard is way too bumpy and scalps at anything under 1.5". I have too many high spots to level it out. It would be a huge under taking to even come close to leveling it. Maybe next house I build i'll have it done right from the start. I'd also move from bermuda tifway 419 to zoysia

I’m in Houston and we’ve been going through a heatwave and drought this spring and summer. Watching your vids I’ve upped my mowing schedule from about 1X every 10-12 days to every 5th day for a month now and my St. A has really improved. I fertilized in spring and 2 weeks ago put out ironite and my grass is the best looking around in my neighborhood. Thanks for all your hard work educating.

I'm here for mulching stuff and I'm glad it's part of your video. I'm doing 90% mulching and the lawn is nice and healthy.

[@Striperman]

Yes sir. I have noticed over the last two seasons with all the different products I have tried and watering scheduling the thing that has helped my lawn the most is the mowing hands down. The lawn has responded so well to frequent mowing. Whether mowing tall or short just removing just the tips by mowing more often has helped to thicken the lawn, retain its color and over all health of the lawn. It uses up some much energy to re grow after taking off more than 1/3 of the blade. That rule definitely makes a difference and anything below that amount is a good start.

[@freed6343]

Thanks Allyn for taking the time to make this great and informative video. One thing I think you overlooked in the how to mow section of the video is the importance of a sharp blade on your mower. As a bit of a lawn nut myself, and when I gave advice from the True Value Hardware store where I sold fertilizers and lawn mowers, I always stressed to the customer to mow with a sharp blade... minimizing the "damage" you do to that grass plant. I keep several sharp blades on hand and change them out every two or three mowings on my postage stamp-sized 50' X 100' St. Augustine lawn. I think proper mowing (and watering) is more important than the fertilizer(s) one may be using. Thanks again for taking the time to make this video.

[@MattMcC7100]

What I learned from you during quarantine and being furloughed man.. can’t thank you enough. Been back to work for a few months and now I’m teaching my coworkers what you taught me and even sharing the links to your channel. Neighbors are like how the?!?...

[@brianramlagan6291]

After seeing your video on the st Augustine lawn care. Much appreciated the tips how to treat the lawn for better results. I will definitely keep watching your videos for more tips. Thanks

[@AmericanConstellation]

I've been mowing my lawn like this for the last 59 years....It definitely works! Also, this time of year, my grass has gone to seed. I like to catch some of it with a bag and spread it on areas that I want to seed. Some of that seed catches and fills things in.

[@markchase8128]

I had designs on mowing Thursday this week, two days after weed spray. Got stuck at work, maybe tomorrow before it rains this weekend. Else the lawn will be at 7" again. I mowed down to 4" Sunday. Once a week not enough, clumping up some, at least it has dried out a little this week. And I now need more gas and a blade sharpening. Granted its never looked better, but its easy to look good in the spring. The look after July is more telling of how the lawn is doing.

[@jasonharley6955]

Thank you, entertaining and informative, I was doing my lawn bi-weekly...now I will start twice a week. thanks again.

I like the analogy to working out. Some people just work out a little bit and spend tons of money on supplements expecting a miracle. It's huge business, and people just throw away their money really. Same with growing grass or gardening. Master the basics first like mowing, watering and feeding the lawn. Do some dethatching and aeration and weed control and you're like 99% of the way there. Then if you want to buy a super lawn supplement go ahead. 🤘

[@philipbalestrieri870]

[@DarthFurball]

When I was 7-10 years old I can remember our Grandparents neighbor in Wisconsin cutting his lawn on a riding lawn mower every single day or every other day. His grass always looked amazing. Good points about making the grass look good. I have a 42 inch riding Craftsman lawn tractor 🚜 but recently spent $700 to get it all fixed up and running like new. In is a DLT 3000. I have been itching to get a Toro Super Recycler push mower for exercise and to allow my older kids the chance to be able to cut the grass. That would be awesome to let my kids cut the grass and enjoy the mow too. I took my wife and one of my four kids to Sunniland in Longwood, FL to get some 7-0-20 with Insecticide fertilizer. I also sprayed and prayed with the four pack of Micronutrients I purchased for you off your site, Allyn. I sprayed the spotted areas really dark 🕶️. I was so happy that just about an hour ago it poured at our house 🏡 just north of Orlando. Thanks, Allyn for mailing me the stickers too I asked for. That was very kind of you. God bless. Jeff - Sunny Central Florida 😎🙏👍☀️🍊🥭🍋🍅

[@nygrasshole]

I knew it would be mowing, yet I still watched in full since I love to continue education. I ask 3 questions, Allyn: 1. What height should my dad be mowing his zoysia in Long Island? 2. When should I apply Hydretain? End of May? Long Island as well. 3. Not a question. That mid week mow job is critical. I did it last season until July and it paid off big time!

if you dad can keep it at 2" it will do well and Hydretain at the end of May will get you through much of summer

To get a higher cut, try bigger wheels if you can. I was able to take my Walmart cheaply from 3 to almost 5. I'm currently at 3.5 and you should see my dark green! I'll be close to that 5 in the heat of summer. I've put nothing on it this year. Last app was heavy milorganite at Thanksgiving.
