4 Summer Lawn Care Must Haves

Whether you own multiple acres of land or live on a small lot, there’s one thing that unites all John Deere owners—the desire to have a great-looking lawn. Keeping up with a perfect yard may seem like a daunting task, but with the right tools, it’s easy to make your lawn stand out in a great way. To learn more, check out our four must-haves for top-notch summer lawn care:

Summer Lawn Care Must Have #1: A Sharp Lawn Mower Blade
We’ve said it before, and we’ll say it again: keeping a sharp blade on your John Deere mower is essential to maintaining a healthy lawn. Mowing with a dull or chipped blade can result in torn grass, brown patches, and an uneven lawn height—things that affect not only the look of your lawn, but also its physical condition. To avoid problems, make sure to regularly sharpen or replace your lawn mower blade for peak performance (Click here to shop John Deere lawn mower blades).

Summer Lawn Care Must Have #2: A Maneuverable Line Trimmer
A line trimmer can help you reach small tufts of grass that are difficult to cut with a lawn mower. Use a trimmer around fences, swing sets, and other obstacles to keep messy-looking overgrowth from dominating your yard (Click to find parts for your John Deere trimmer).

Summer Lawn Care Must Have #3: A Quality Edger
If you’re looking for a quick way to make your lawn stand out, use an edger along sidewalks, driveways, and patios. An edger will create clean, professional-looking borders and leave your neighbors thinking you hired a landscaping crew (Find edger parts here).

Summer Lawn Care Must Have #4: A Powerful Lawn & Leaf Blower
Clean-up is a necessary part of any project—yard work included. Once you’re done cutting your lawn, use a lawn and leaf blower to remove grass clippings and other organic debris from paths and walkways. This will save time on sweeping and make your finished achievements look effortless (Locate lawn and leaf blower parts here).
