Miss, Miss, please Miss!

On 3/1 I wrotted

Our next door neighbor is cutting his lawn !


I've done that in the past. If you've let the grass get a bit too
long, it's good to cut when the ground is frosted. You don't churn
the undersoil into a soggy mess and does the grass no harm in my
opinion.



cutting grass during frost damages the plant

Mr Picky says "Of course it damages the plant - you are cutting it!"

Does it damage a lawn more than cutting it when it is soggy and wet?
