Who cuts their grass on Tuesday? You must be on the low end of the priority list of yards to be cut.

I think later in the day mowing can open the lawn up to fungus as the cut blades do not have time to properly heal and dry before the night time dew making it more suseptible to fungus.

Ideally morning is best I think.

Thanks. I’ll tell the guys who mow my lawn about this.


The amount of southern men these days that brag about not cutting their own grass astonishes me. I ain’t saying you have to enjoy it or even do it. But to brag about not doing it says something about our generations.

You don’t mow with dew on the ground. Any novice knows this.

I don’t know where to start. I’d suggest with a dictionary in order to help you understand how it’s not possible for him to literally be Hitler. Perhaps a better approach would be to describe his behavior as figuratively or metaphorically akin to Adolf Hitler?

I can’t imagine using a rotary mower. What filth.

Where are you at that 7pm feels “nice” outside?

I’m in Northeast Louisiana. At 6:30am-7:30am this morning, it was 73-75 degrees with no sun out.
At 7-8pm this afternoon, the forecast shows 87-86 and the sun will still be partially out.

We’re talking apples and bazookas here, baw.

Well the HOA dudes cut on Tuesdays at my house in Bend Oregon.

They cut the entire community on Tuesdays.

All grass cutting at the same height.

Freaky.

Also, your tip of the day is for the faint of heart and no man who really cuts grass will actually ever do what your thread is proposing.

We ain’t got time for all that mower flip, we got fricking grass to cut.
