Too early to cut the grass?

[Uncle John]

Down here in the equatorial south east it's positively spring like.

The forecast is dry for the remainder of the week with a potential 15 degrees at the weekend!!!

Question is, providing the ground has dried up enough would you get going on the first cut of the season?

I'm thinking yes, then no, then yes, then no as the weather still has potential to turn nasty.

So what do you think?

I gave mine the second cut of the year this morning

Good work!

Nearly did mine last weekend, it was only the very wet ground that stopped me.

Might seed this weekend too.

Start with a couple of high cuts, I cut mines today East Lothian bit soft in places though.

I did mine the weekend before last. Didn't actually cut much grass per se - just give it a bit of a vacuuming and re-stripe.

I've just done mine, surprised how dry the grass was, just filled the wheelie bin.

Might be a little early here:

Mine too, go for it.

South here as well but the garden is positively drowned after recent downpours. Hopefully soon though...

Did mine about 2 weeks ago.
Stop making excuses

First cut April(ish), once the mower has had a fettle and I've remembered to take a can along when I fill up the car.
Final cut September.

Sorted

We're located on the south coast, and will probably be giving the lawn its 2nd cut this weekend.

First cut this weekend, well, more of a hoover to pick up any debris that has accumulated over the winter. First proper cut probably the following weekend.

I never cut unless there is an April in the month.
I have a lot of grass and cutting early extends the season.

Top cut, keep it high to take the tips off it. Done mine once this year before giving it some winter green up. I won't overseed until April, and I'll scarify before it to open it up.

The bowls green next to my house has probably had about 8 cuts this year already!

I opened the gate today and let the rabbit in. Little fluffy loving the long fresh grass at the moment so I'll let it grow a little more as she gets miffed when you cut it.

I might scarify mine tomorrow... maybe should have done it back end of last year but didnt get chance.

Think I need to borrow back the rotary we gave to next door before letting loose with the cylinder.
