If you’re interested in making your lawn thick, green, and healthy; start by changing your mowing habits. Mowing too short restricts leaf development making lawns weak and thin. You should only remove one third of the grass blade height per mowing, so that the plants focus on root development, not re-growing leaves.
Finally, be sure that your mower blade is sharp, so it cuts the grass cleanly, instead of tearing it, since ragged leaves are more susceptible to disease and insect damage.
