I have one of the nicest lawns around. As soon as the snow is gone and it’s dry I do one cut not too low and the bagged grass goes into the organic cart. I wait at least 3-4 days and cut it again shorter. I’ve already done the second cut and my grass is starting to green. That’s when we dethatch. For summer cuts I mulch and leave the grass long except I’ll cut it short if we’re going away longer than two weeks.
My yard is huge so I never rake even in fall. I use my battery mower like a vacuum to pick up leaves. I never water either.
