|
Hubby and I just cancelled our Lawn service. They were cutting the grass too short and with thier heavy equipment was leavign bare spots in the grass.
Anyway, we are trying to be more eco-friendly, I was wondering if anyone has used the new push reel mowers and if you have any feedback.
FYI - I'm in Florida with St.Augustine grass.
Thanks,
Johanna

I have never used one on St. Augustine... I used one on Tiff 419. Be aware it take a bit of getting accustom to a reel mower to get a good cut. Plus, you will need to cut your grass often. I agree lawn services cut too short. But by doing that they stimulate top growth and take away from root growth. So, you pay more and water more. Good luck with the mower.
