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. -- (¯`·. ®óñ© © ²°¹° .·´¯) |

Simple realy if its frozen keep off it. Thats another reason why golf courses have temp greens for frosty days. |

Simple realy if its frozen keep off it. Thats another reason why golf courses have temp greens for frosty days. Golf course greens are mowed very short, like 0.25" all year. Yes, walking on them can leave marks. My lawns, left at 3 - 4 inches at the start of winter, don't mind me walking on them at all and I shall merrily take off their top tuffs when hard but clear of snow. In fact. I might give them a go when 0.5" of snow remains, it'll disperse it nicely, I'm not aiming for best kept sward in the village. -- (¯`·. ®óñ© © ²°¹° .·´¯) |

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

A quick flymo over a hard lawn tidies it up a treat in my experience. -- (¯`·. ®óñ© © ²°¹° .·´¯) |
