For the first time in memory – I mean ever – I have mowed the grass every single week. I started in early April and am still mowing strong. Usually (always) there is week or two of extreme heat in the summer without rain and the grass takes a few weeks off. I think I recall a 6-week period a few years ago that I left my mower in the shed.
But not this year. This is a year that the grass will look back on and remember as the Golden Age of Grass. One old grass blade will gather all the young ones around and say, “Yes, children, 2022 was the greatest grass growing season in the history of lawns. We grew every week until the first big frost. It was a helluva run!”
All I can say is that I’m ready for that frost. Bring it on.
