Poll of the Day > Topic about mowing your lawn...

(+) Yeah! (+)

Like your actual lawn. Do you mow both front and back at the same time? Or the same amount? Do you do it or pay someone to do it? How often do you mow it? If you pay someone, how much? Just random questions about mowing your lawn...

I edge the lawns every other week, usually. Mow every week during the summer, and about once every three weeks or so during the colder months.

Well, mowing my lawn consists of just using a weed whacker in the back yard. Its only like 6 wide and like 25 long or something.

And I generally only need to once a year. Late spring after the onions have grown and right before it gets to the hot season.

Front yard is landscaping and hedge trimming. Which I still need to do this year. I bought a new rake this weekend. Planning on getting to it soon. The blackberry bramble next to my parking spot has fucking exploded.

My grandma does this, sometimes. Just use the weed eater for the backyard since its small. Though, its more than once a year. And the neighbor boy sometimes does it for her. Hes trying to earn money...

Im trying to get it done every two weeks. It should be fine since Im in Texas. But my landlord is... something else...

The lawn gets mowed every week or two depending on how fast it has grown. The yard is about 5,000 square feet. I cut it mostly but during the summer my kids will do it.

I do my front lawn and another whole lawn down the street (family rental property) about once a week. My backyard has so much stuff in it (trees, garden, play set and toys) that it takes twice as long and I only do it when it gets to a certain point.

Just a couple times in the summer, it's like a front lawn and side lawn. It's a cabin by the lake so I don't really mow it to look nice but so the bugs don't get really out of control.

My horse & goats mow most of the property. For the area around the driveway, I've got a Hustler Super Z 60" zero turn mower. Even as fast as that thing can go, it still takes me about 90 minutes.

I pour electrolytes on it cause plants crave electrolytes. The grass doesn't usually grow so I don't have to mow it.

I got lucky in a way as we did an addition on our house and put down an extra driveway. Most of my lawn is tore up and hasn't grown back yet. I only have to mow about 1/5 of what I'd normally have to. I mowed it once every 2 weeks before that. I only have an acre to worry about
