Grass: don’t mow too much in the summer

Even if I pasture English cut, they are perfect and beautiful to look at, on the other hand they are not recommended in terms of durability and biodiversity. The very short grass carpets do not allow the biodiversity to spread better and then cause the death of many insects different. So leave the most uncultivated lawn behind and you help the ecosystem and the environment. After all, meadows and their flowers are an indispensable source for bees and other pollinating insects.

It appears that 7.5 million acres of lawns and flower gardens have been lost to grass cutting since 1930. On an informational level, we believe that one hectare of lawn contains up to 3 million flowers in relation to one kg of pollen. When the flowers are rich in pollen are a first problem, on the other hand there are also a lot of insects and small animals. When you mow the grass, they do not die, but they no longer have shelter and nutrition. A ground covered with a lawn with short grass is much warmer than a yard with longer blades of grass. The latter lower the temperature thanks to the shade they create. It is about a softening from climate very important.

Petrol or diesel lawnmowers and brushcutters are ideal for mowing the grass. We also need to think about the liters of fuel consumed, which should not be so much overlooked. They look ridiculous, but they aren’t. This is who the leading tip is to prevent from cut the meadows in the spring (at least until the end of May). A method of helping insects to carry out their biological functions. Another piece of advice is to cut the grass a few times less or to create an area of ​​your garden dedicated to such biodiversity. So avoid in that area to get thevery short grass.
