It’s important to remember not to cut your grass too short when you mow. It may seem tempting to do, so that you don’t have to mow as frequently, but the result can be devastating to your lawn. When you mow too short it gives weeds the light and water that they need to grow while allowing precious moisture to escape from the soil. It also causes your lawn to have a brownish-yellow tint as most of the lush, green blade of the grass has been cut off.
