Why cutting your grass when it's raining is a BAD idea video. As a prequel to some of the lawn repairs and fixes ill be showing you over the next few months, in this video, I talk about the problems caused by cutting in the rain or cutting very wet grass.

Thank you, I'm completely new to lawn care and this and your edging video are helping me get a better idea of good habits and techniques to keep the place from falling down about my ears.

If I can use a hover. But your still walking on the wet grass. So only of its a must

[@NickBarban]

Only if it’s a must. There’s a lot of soil mechanics not explained here but generally stay off and wait for better conditions. Your lawn will love you for it. Thanks for posting. Nick.
