There is a common myth that the most beautiful and healthy grass are those that are cut close to the ground, but this is not true. Cutting the grass too short, especially during the hottest months of the year, puts excessive strain on it. To be attractive, a meadow and regular cut needs to be planed and not necessarily short. The ideal is to keep the grass at a height of 7-7,5 cm and trimming more often.
Generally, you join the grass that you cut from your garden and you throw it away, however, the cut grass should be left exactly where it is to assume the role of organic and nutritious fertilizer. Filled with nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium and other essential nutrients to the health of the grass, it is important to take advantage of this natural resource. If you do not like that “messy” look, join the cut grass and use it as organic compost, laying it on the ground for other plants to enhance their healthy growth.
