Cutting Remarks To Keep ur Grass On The Grow (NAPSA)—For the grass to be greener on yourside of the fence, here are a few facts that may rs grow on you: * Water early in the day so the grass blades stay moist. * Control weeds. Apply herbicide to grassy weeds, such as crabgrass, in the spring, and to broadleaf weeds, like dandelions, in the fall. * Avoid fertilizer overdose— even good medicine harms when used improperly. * Follow the One-Third Rule. Cut only a third of the grass blade at each mowingandleavetheclippings. They contain important nutrients. * Keep the cutting blade sharp. A dull blade can shred your grass, leaving it vulnerable to disease. If you have a lot of lawn to mow (or just hope to some day), you may be glad to know about the first zero-turn mower with optional PowerLink that generates up to 1000 watts of continuous AC electric power (1500 watts intermittent). Zero-turn lets the machine pivot through 180 degrees without leaving a circle of uncut grass. That means more maneuverability for reaching tight spaces and getting closer to trees, edging and other obstacles, greater speed, easier handling and more sure-footedness. The new Bos-CatT LEO zeroturn mower is built using the same rugged, commercial-grade design that made Bos-CaT mowers popular with professionals. ur neighbors may be green with envy when they see how gorgeous your lawn can get. The mower offers homeowners a choice of 17.5, 18 or 25 HP engine and side discharge mowing decks designed to handle tough mowing jobs. Standard features include a padded, high-back, vinyl covered seat, cup holder, electric ignition and clutch, hydrostatic transmission and five-gallon fuel tank. The PowerLink option, which is standard on the 25 HP, provides the convenience of portable power to run tools, lights or use as a back-up generator. Owners can hook right up to the lawn mowerinstead of running extension cords or hauling an additional generator to a job when they need to run electrical tools such as hedge trimmers, blowers, power drills and saws. In addition, PowerLink can work as a back-up generator running appliances and sump pumps, in emergency situations. Additional information is available at wwwjacobsen.com.
