During the colder months, outdoor tasks like cutting the grass can get put on hold, mainly due to the gloomy and wet weather.
While conditions during the winter aren't pleasant enough to be outside for long periods of time, the Royal Horticultural Society (RHS) says you should not mow the lawn if the ground is soft, wet or frozen - as it can damage the soil and hinder growth.
The RHS advises that the grass should be cut every two weeks during the spring and summer time, as it grows best when temperatures hit above 6c. With days get longer and the warmer seasons drawing closer, many gardeners may be wanting to know when to begin mowing the lawn once more - and experts have revealed the exact date.
