When to mow your lawn
If you are one of those people who must cut their grass
at 7am on Saturday morning and wake up the whole neighbourhood, you might want to rethink that strategy. Here's why: "During the morning, the grass is wet with dew and it clogs the mower. The now-shocked grass has to fight for it's life as it tries to survive the hottest part of the day. So morning is not good for you or the grass. Obviously, you shouldn't mow during the day because the grass is already putting all of its energy into trying not to burn. At night, the grass has already had time to cool off and the roots have retained their moisture. So when it's cut and goes into shock, it has the whole night to recover without needing or struggling for water. Oh, and never cut it as short as most people do. The grass needs length to develop strong roots." (Via Reddit)
