You can, but I prefer to do it around 6pm and beat the heat later in the day.

I'm out there mowing at 6:30 am. Mingo is still curled up with his boyfriend at that hour.

Yep, mow when you want. It's your property. If the sun is up it's perfectly acceptable to start the day.

Suns up blades down over here.

Better for lawns to mow late on day

Better for your mower too

Cutting wet dewy grass is bad for grass and mower

As I'm reading this I hear my neighbor's mower cranked up and cutting at 8:40.

Yeah, after 8 a.m. if good to go in my book. The only issue I have cutting that early is the grass is usually still damp from the night before and it can get a bit messy between cutting and edging.

I can’t sleep past 6:30 these days. I’m envious of people that can make it to 8:30 sound asleep

No it’s not. Many cities have noise ordinances for a reason and that reason is that it became fricking annoying to be woken up by some selfish a-hole that had to get the grass cut while others are trying to sleep. I don’t give a shite and those laws are rarely enforced but don’t pretend that it’s perfectly acceptable.

Yes. Honestly, I don’t care what time someone cuts their grass. The earlier the smarter. By 10 / 10:30 am it’s getting too hot.

I like to get the yard cut before the kids wake up so I cut as soon as I get up. I do not have close neighbors though...
