Dr. Gil Landry discusses setting your lawnmower to the proper height for mowing your grass.

These settings should insure a healthy lawn. Grass Heights: Hybrid Bermuda 1.5", Zoysiagrass 1.5", Common Bermuda grass 1-2", Fescues 2-3", Turf type Fescues 2", Mow often enough to remove only 1/3 the leaf height.

Dr. Tim Murphy, a weed specialist, gives us ideas for dealing with common summer weeds.
