🌱 Researching the best grass cutting patterns for various lawn shapes and sizes.
- Rectangular/Square Lawns:
Small to Medium Size:
- Straight Lines: Mow back and forth in straight lines parallel to the longest side.
- Striping: Mow in alternate directions with each pass to create a striped appearance.
Large Size:
- Striping: Similar to smaller lawns but may require more precise turning at ends.
- Checkered: Mow in one direction (e.g., north-south), then mow perpendicularly (e.g., east-west) on the next session.
- Circular or Irregular Lawns:
Small to Medium Size:
Spiral: Start from the outside edge and mow in a tight spiral towards the center.
Large Size:
Spiral: Begin with wider arcs and progressively tighten the spiral as you move inward. Large circles to smaller spirals: Start with large circular patterns, transitioning to smaller, tighter spirals.
- Narrow or Long Lawns:
All Sizes:
Straight Lines: Mow in long, straight lines along the length of the lawn to minimize turning.
- Complex Shaped Lawns (with multiple flower beds or obstacles):
All Sizes:
Sectional Mowing: Divide the lawn into manageable sections and mow each using the best pattern for its shape.
| Lawn Shape & Size | Recommended Cutting Pattern |
|---|---|
| Rectangular/Square - Small/Med | Straight Lines, Striping |
| Rectangular/Square - Large | Striping, Checkered |
| Circular/Irregular - Small/Med | Spiral (outward to inward) |
| Circular/Irregular - Large | Spiral, Large circles to smaller spirals |
| Narrow/Long - All Sizes | Straight Lines (in the longer direction) |
| Complex Shapes - All Sizes | Sectional Mowing (per shape of section) |
Alternating Striping:
- Description: Alternating the mowing direction with each mow to promote even grass growth and reduce soil compaction. Suitable for most lawn shapes and sizes, and enhances aesthetic appeal through a professional, striped look.
