Should I let the lawn stay covered with leaves through the winter? |

Do not let leaves cover your lawn through the winter. The leaves prohibit the sun and oxygen to reach your lawn creating the possibility of disease. While creating the possibility of disease, leaves also create yellow patches on the lawn. Removing leaves regularly from your lawn creates a healthier lawn in the spring. |

Your lawn will create a thin weedy patch if you cut off more than 1/3 the height at a time when mowing your lawn. Cutting shorter than 1/3 at a time exposes plant crowns,reduces root growth,and stresses the lawn. |
