“Hey Alexa: how I hug a lawn?”
What happens here
Before beginning the mowing process to create stripes, it is crucial to ensure the lawn is in optimal condition. This includes confirming the grass is healthy, well-hydrated, and at an appropriate cutting height (typically between 2.5 to 3 inches for most common turf types). Additionally, inspect the lawn area and remove any debris, sticks, rocks, or other obstacles that could hinder mowing or damage the equipment. A dense and healthy lawn is fundamental for producing clear and visible stripes.
Goal: Ensure the lawn is ready for mowing and striping.
