Scorching temperatures and a dry spell have played havoc with gardens across Nottinghamshire, but those looking to rescue their grass have been warned that a viral TikTok hack is not the way to save their lawn. In fact, one expert is calling the tip 'highly dangerous'.
In the video, the poster, who goes by the name @roamwildwitholiver, says the gardening hack was learnt from his dad. He's shown mowing the lawn with the grass box removed and a stick propping up the guard. He says the grass being distributed from the back of the mower "is really good for enhancing grass growth".
While he begins the video saying: "This gardening hack is so simple and it works perfectly every time." But lawn maintenance experts at Toolstation warn this action could be dangerous.
