Proper mowing and plant care for healthy lawns and houseplants
Proper mowing supports strong roots and weed control. Avoid mowing below 2 inches, remove no more than one third of blade at a time, and keep blades sharp to prevent gray, frayed leaves. Move houseplants outdoors gradually after winter, acclimate them, repot if needed, mulch, water, and inspect for pests.
