Tire marks

[Tom7227]

Tire marks stay in my lawn for a week or more after I cut the grass. How come?

Thanks for your time.

Maybe to dry?

Do you mow the same lines every time?

Do you mow the same lines every time?

No. Not dry either.

Is it a heavy rider?

[Tom7227]

14 hp Husqvarna that I just got late last year.

I haven't put any fertilizer on it this year and I am wondering if it is evidence that the lawn is lacking something.

[leech~~]

Are you cutting longer then normal?

[Tom7227]

2.5 inches is where it is set.

I have had the same thing in my yard but i leave my grass at 3.5". But i only had it the first couple times after i bought my new rider. Then after that they went away.

Tire marks as in the grass is layed down where the tires ran?

Or tire marks where the grass is lighter than the other grass?

Marks where the grass layed down.

This time of the year the grass isn't growing very fast if at all, If your tires lay it down and it's not growing it won't stand back up.

I think it needed some fertilizer

I would think it was from the cooler than normal summer we had.

The grass, while grew quickly, wasn't as strong and rigid of a leaf blade, almost a softer grass, and had a tendency to lay over much better.

Much the way stripes are made in grass, getting grass to lay one direction vs another, the stripes will me much more prevalent now, than mid summer, because the grass doesn't respond as quickly with the cooler temps.

Nothing to be concerned about.
