After the first cut of the season, grass seems to get high faster.
Gardening season has begun, and one of the first areas screaming for attention is the lawn. You may be tempted to get an early start on enjoying the outdoors, but there's a good reason not to mow before you have to. The grass comes back faster than it seems possible. By the time you've finished the last pass, the first one is practically ready again. This year, our mower broke and can't be repaired for another two to three weeks. I don't know if we'll make it until then, but even with the rain we've had, the grass just doesn't seem to grow as fast as it does once the cutting begins. The lazy girl in me is enjoying this excellent excuse to simply sit outside and look around, getting ideas, without actually having to do anything. Get a good book and enjoy your outside space, long grass and all.
