Weekly vs. Bi-Weekly Mowing — Which Should You Choose?

This is the most common question homeowners ask. Here's the honest answer:

Weekly mowing is better for your lawn's health. The standard rule in lawn care is to never cut more than one-third of the grass blade at a time. In spring and early summer — when South Fayette lawns grow fastest — grass can grow 2–3 inches per week. If you wait two weeks, you're hacking off more than a third each cut, which stresses the turf and leaves it looking ragged right after a mow.

Bi-weekly works in two situations: slower-growth periods (late summer, early fall) or yards with low-maintenance grass varieties. If you're trying to save money, bi-weekly is still far better than going a month between cuts.

We'll tell you honestly which schedule makes sense for your specific yard. Most South Fayette lawns do best on a weekly schedule from April through September.
