Which one do I need then, the vertical axis mower or the lateral axis mower?
PLUS, I've noticed some of my neighbours have left their newly seeded grass to grow up to 4 inches or more, but I though you should cut it before it reaches that height...... but they might know more than me.......
thanking you.....

Traditionally a pushed cylinder mower is recommended for a new lawn (ones with the (two, big side wheels) Or you could use a scythe. But a light sharp rotary mower is also suitable. Just remember don't take more a third of the grassses height in one go.
