Did my final cut the other day when it hadnt rained for a day or so, it's mainly to stop your leccy mower blowing itself up. | |

I used to DETEST cutting the grass until I bit the bullet and invested in a decent petrol mower; prior to that I'd been struggling with Flymo's because I believed all of the hype! | |

Cutting the grass after it's rained is fine. We cut the grass while it's raining sometimes. If it's too wet can just churn up the grass and leave marks. It does clog your mower up as well. For what it's worth I'd wait till we have a couple of dry days. | |

Mines due it's last cut. I'll get the petrol mower out as soon as we have a couple of dry days. | |

Cut it when you want really the only risk is damage to your mower or strimmer,doesn`t grow so much in the winter months as there`s less heat/sun that`s all. | |

I doubt it'll do the grass any harm but if you are using an electric mower that blows the cuttings into the box clearly you are going to have problems. | |

I've found that cutting wet grass just isn't worth the effort, it just clogs up everything in the mower and it dullens the blades too. | |

I've always thought it's more to do with puny electric lawnmowers. I cut mine no matter how wet it is with the petrol one. | |

You can, but its a pain in the Arse, and won't look great. | |

Depends how wet it is. If it's a little damp, it'll be fine. If it's soaking, don't bother. | |

I've been meaning to cut the grass for for the last 2 months but each day it's rained and I've always been led to believe you can't cut the grass when it's wet. |
