Is it OK to mow your grass right after you fertilize it?

- Fertilizers stimulate grass growth, and mowing immediately afterward can damage the new growth.

- The grass blades can become stressed, leading to weakened roots and increased susceptibility to diseases.

- Mowing may also cause a loss of nutrients, as the freshly cut grass clippings can contain essential nutrients that would have otherwise been absorbed by the grass.

- Wait for several days or even a week after fertilizing before mowing to allow the fertilizer to be absorbed and the grass to recover from potential stress caused by fertilization.
