Nothing urgent, but I walk past the lawn at City Hall each day and see ways that it could be "greener". - The crews mow at a very low height. If grass is mowed higher the blades shade the soil, keeping the roots cooler and more healthy. It also keeps sunlight from hitting the soil, which prevents weed seeds from germinating, which reduces the need for pesticides. - The crews remove the clippings. Using a mulching mower returns the clippings to the lawn system, reducing the need for fertilizer. It's also less work to not have to empty the mower bag. - The grass was mowed yesterday. Today (Friday 5/18) much of the lawn has a silvery color to it. If you look at the grass blades in these areas you'll see that the tips are shredded instead of being cleanly cut. This means that the mower blade is so dull that it's ripping rather than cutting. The shredded grass blades are more susceptible to disease than cleanly cut ones. Just my 2 cents, thanks for listening, Rich Pierce

Yard overgrown. Grass extremely high.
