sorry you're so triggered.

If I had to mow twice a week I'd just burn my lawn down. Lawn is like the most boring **** in the world. I don't think grass looks nice. My house has a lawn because it came that way, but I'd NEVER EVER put a lawn in where one didn't exist. Eventually I will get rid of my front lawn and be done with it.

Ah. The classic "UR TRIGGERED HERP" attack. I'm not, lol. Just giving you ****.

I didn't say you need to mow your lawn twice a week, I would only do that bc I'm anal. Once a week is good for a well maintained lawn.

Your lawn isn't well maintained. I'm sorry, but it isn't, and people who don't take good care of their possessions rub me the wrong way. A neighbor with a yard like yours would drive me nuts.
 
I pay someone to mow my lawn every other week. They edge, trim the plants, etc. 25 bucks a pop. Absolutely worth it.

But it must be said that maintaining a green lawn, unless you live in a place that gets ample rain, is a huge waste of water. Better to get landscape more like the natural landscapes for your area.

Lol. Brudder, I have a degree in crop sciences. I know a thing or two about how crops grow, and temperate zones. If you want, I can go very into detail on soil types, why some take water better, leach more water, bind nutrients, etc.. this is kinda my ****. I'll put it this way...I know how to grow plants like you know how to lake fish in Utah. I'm a cotdamn licensed expert.

Flat out, if you can get away with mowing your grass every other week and still have it not be too tall, you are starving it of either water, nutrients, or most likely both.

But the thing is that I'm no expert on lake fishing in Utah and most definitely not in other states. I know the lakes (and rivers) that I do fish really well but not all lakes and not all rivers. Cause they all different.
You never been to my house doe. I have great coverage with my sprinkling system (basically ever part of my yards are double or even triple covered) and I have each station watering for 45 minutes straight every 3rd night.
I lack shade which has a big effect. Some parts of my lawn grow really fast and other parts very slow. Even in my own yard there are different parts that grow differently. Lol at you thinking that you know how often everyone else's lawns need to be mowed when they differentiate so much that in fact the same lawn in the same property needs to be mowed differing frequencies.

Every other week? Oh noes! The horror

I enjoy mowing the lawn btw. Listen to my headphones and grab some sunshine (and a tan. I don't wear a shirt while I mow). Quite pleasant tbh.

Sorry but this is a horrible take. You’d rather have plain dirt than green grass? Grass is ****ing beautiful.

Eh
Depends on the lawn, soil, rain vs sunshine ratio, etc.

My lawn grows slow as ****. Every other week is plenty. In fact sometimes when I mow it (I usually do about every other week) I can't even tell where I have already mowed and where I haven't mowed yet. I use a pretty short setting on my lawnmower.

Main thing to remember though is that not every lawn is the same in every part of the country. There are different types of grass, soil, environments, etc.
Utah is actually a desert. (Not sure if you knew that or not)

I’m actually in the same situation. I mow every other week and half the time can’t even tell that big of a difference.

I have TruGreen kill weeds six times a year and fertilize. Worth every penny.

I also have a sprinkler system and water 30 minutes every other day.

Do y'all put fertilizer on your grass? How many inches of water a week?

I do weed and feed in the early spring a couple times.

In the summer, even though I have completely turned off my backyard sprinklers, my water usage goes up 4x. I look at my lawn and I just think of how much water I'm wasting on it. I look at the lawns of my neighbors that are super green and well maintained and all I see is wasted water. That doesn't look good to me.
