Default Last grass mow of the year - when?

Hi Folks,

Please let me know when I should mow the grass for the last time

this
year (2005), & any year for that matter.

Today, being sunny, I mowed. I live in South Oxfordshire.

Is that enough for this year, or should I do it one last time next
month?

What is the usual 'cut-off' day or week each year - or, is there no
such thing?


I'm afraid your worst fears are about to be realised! There isn't a
date: it's not unknown for the odd (very odd, in my lazy opinion)
person to fire up the mower on Christmas Day. Just keep on doing it
whenever it looks as though it needs doing. This will depend on your
conditions: a good old frost will set it back nicely.
