Double cutting a lawn - HOW, WHEN AND WHY!

[@garrisonfamilyalbum3901]

In addition to leaving a clean cut lawn I've also found that weekly mowing alone will choke out a ton of weeds. Each year the grass will grow healthier and thicker even without being treated.

Great point...but definitely not the case for this property! lol It's a weed farm without the munchies

Yes sir indeed.
I will say this Mitchell,
I have two lawns, an acre each.
Mine and my widowed Aunt
Both a weed field cut down.
I used a fertilizer
(Year One Only)
from Lowes during rain season so didn't have to water.
One treatment...
Just can't afford it.
Today a few years later from weekly mowing - cutting 3 to 5 inches -according to heat-
keeping it high,
the Bermuda is doing excellent.
Weeds? ...Sure.
But not many.
My Aunt says she wants it cut lower in spite of how great it looks.
I can't get her to understand how the importance of proper height creates a canopy shading out weed growth.
I still have the weeds
but fewer every year.
I double cut most every time.

Best way I have found to do it is mow it at a low setting such as 3” and then mowing over 3.5” the second time. Just taking the top off on the second pass.

My property was a previous overgrown hay field, got it looking good after 2 years of mowing it constantly. It grows real fast and I cut it every 6 days at 3.75"to 4" and by the time I mow it again it has grown almost 4". So I am always double cutting at two different heights.

When I double cut should I mow like 3.5 first time then 3.25 diagonally the second??

[@mithgo_outdoor]

I always mow lower first then higher to disperse clippings
