The Best Lawnmower for Zoysia Grass
The Best Lawnmower for Zoysia Grass. Proper mowing of zoysia grass is essential to maintain a quality lawn. This includes not only using the correct type of mower but also mowing at the correct height and frequency.
Proper mowing of zoysia grass is essential to maintain a quality lawn. This includes not only using the correct type of mower but also mowing at the correct height and frequency.
Mowers
The best lawn mowers for cutting zoysia lawns have a vertical cutting action, such as those on reel mowers. If a rotary mower must be used, make sure that the blades are sharp and remain so throughout the mowing season.
When To Mow Zoysia
Start mowing zoysia in spring as soon as it start to turn from brown to green. A first low cutting of 3/4 inch will help remove dead tissue and encourage the greening process. Continue mowing through the season every five to seven days at the proper height. Less frequent mowing can result in scalping of the lawn and a poorer-quality turf.
How to Mow Zoysia
The cutting blade on your mower should be set to between 3/4 inch to 2 inches. The lawn clippings may be returned to the soil instead of removed, so long as they are not clumping.
