Feedback

Bought a kreg rip cut circular saw fence online from c&l. The fence arrived in the mail promptly but inside the packaging the item was missing a small but integral part. Upon phoning them I received excellent customer service and they rectified the situation immediately, even though it was the manufacturer's fault. I'll be using c&l again as a result.

How to get the best mow every time

Posted by C&L Tool Centre 04/12/2025 0 Comment(s)

How to get the best mow every time

With Australia’s hot, dry summers on the way, now is the perfect time to help customers prepare their lawns. Smart mowing habits can keep grass greener and healthier, even through heatwaves and water restrictions.

Why Mowing Properly Matters

Correct mowing encourages thick, resilient turf that can cope with harsh sun and limited rainfall. By strengthening root systems and reducing weed and pest spread, good mowing helps lawns stay healthier throughout the summer months.

When to Mow

Mid-morning or late afternoon is the ideal time to mow in Australia, as the grass is dry and temperatures are less intense. Midday heat can stress freshly cut grass, while morning dew leads to clumping. During summer, most lawns need mowing every one to two weeks, though growth slows in dry periods or under water restrictions.

Ideal Cutting Height

Keeping grass a little longer is key in the Australian climate. Follow the “one-third rule” to avoid cutting too hard. Buffalo and Kikuyu lawns perform well at 40–50 mm, while Couch suits around 25–30 mm. Slightly longer blades help shade the soil, reduce evaporation, and protect against scorching during hot spells.

Mowing Technique Tips

Dry grass and sharp blades give the cleanest results and reduce browning. Changing your mowing direction encourages upright, even growth. Leaving fine clippings on the lawn can add nutrients and help retain moisture, particularly useful during summer.

Quick Summer Care Boost

Deep, infrequent watering supports stronger roots and helps the lawn cope with heat. Clearing debris before mowing ensures an even finish, while applying a light, slow-release fertiliser early in the season can strengthen the lawn for the warmer months.
