Stripes on your lawn

Are you looking for a lush green lawn with these stripes? This is the North Hampshire Lawn Treatments guide to maintaining these beautiful stripes in your lawn.

The main reason you get stripes in your lawn is due to reflections of light. One row of grass faces one way, and the other row of grass will face the other way, therefore creating stripes. It is important to remember that you need to mow stripes in, they won’t appear naturally. So, the key really, is to get a great mower. Here are our top tips into getting perfect stripes in your already lush lawn.

  • The healthier your lawn is, the better stripes you will have.

  • You need a rotary mower with a rear roller. OR a cylinder mower.

  • You should always mow stripes in a higher setting.

  • When mowing in stripes, you should take the mower in one direction, then when you’re at the end of the line, all you need to do is turn the mower around and mow in the other direction. How easy is that?!

And there they are, our top tips into getting the picture perfect lawn! Let us know how you get on, we love to hear your feedback!
