Grass Cutting at Weekends

anewme

What time is acceptable to cut the grass at weekends. ?

Was going to cut it this evening but neighbours out having drinks, so will leave it till tomorrow.

Would it annoy you if neighbours cut grass at say 10am?

I would think any time after 9 am is acceptable

I think 10am would be more social. A lot of people like a bit of a lie in at the weekend.

6:37am, before the pigeon squatting atop the weeping willow stirs and carpet bombs the garden with another Jackson Pollock masterpiece.

One side sleep till 1pm or later, but that's too late for me.

Will wait till after 10.

a regular monday - anytime after 9am

a bank holiday monday - anytime after 11am (let them have their lie in in peace)

Will be out after 10....that's it.

I'm cutting mine now

I live very rural so pardon my ignorance but would mowing the lawn really disturb the neighbours in suburbia?
Surely your triple glazing muffles it?!

Happy4all

I would never start before 11 am

Love the sound of a mower during the summer

Doesn't matter, the noise from your lawnmower will be forgotten as soon as they get the beautiful smell of freshly cut grass.

I dont have triple glazing. It's not mandatory.

don't mean to poop on your reply but.....

That "Fresh Cut Grass" Smell Is a Distress Signal. ... It's the smell of chemical defenses and first aid. The fresh, “green” scent of a just-mowed lawn is the lawn trying to save itself from the injury you just inflicted.

Morning or afternoon

PsychoPete

My day starts at 6 am so I cut my grass at 8 this morning, if anyone living near didn't like it then they can feck off

PommieBast

This an electric flymo or a proper noisy two-stroke with a few loose bolts for good measure?

JupiterKid

I’d reckon that about 2am would be an ideal time to trim the lawn.

After all, the neighbours who are out in their garden drinking will be in the passed out from the booze stage that they won’t hear a sweet thing at all.

if your neighbors work night shift like a nurse or doctor id leave it until after 1 or 2pm otherwise 10am or after

I work evenings so I get to bed around 4am or 5am. My neighbours start their day at around 8am so they could be power washing or cutting the grass from around 8:30ish, that to me is sound.
People have to get on with their lives at whatever time suits themselves, I bring my bins out/in after work, do my vacuming, watch tv and use my electric shower around 3am.
Get on grand with the neighbours take in parcels for each other etc the only thing we would not do is call with the parcel at a time when the bedroom window blinds are still closed.
Living in an estate I think you just gotta chill and not sweat the small things.

I'll second this.

My partner is a nurse and we live in a rural area. Neighbours are very thoughtful and considerate especially when she is on nights just like this poster.

They definitely wouldn't be in the my day starts at 6 so I"ll cut my lawn at 8 and if people don't like it they can feck off group.

I wish my grass was Emo so it would cut itself.

My way of thinking, I'm living in a very rural area in Co Limerick, usually cut the grass about 8.00 am on a Saturday, these past few weeks with being off it's 8.00 am on a Tue, Wed or Thurs or what ever day suits really, my time is my own

Pretzill

I would wait until afternoon - nothing to do with neighbours - the grass stays very dewy these sunny mornings

Wtf ?

Or just follow the dawn chorus mantra, ''One up,All up''

anewme

Will leave it til 10am so. They might not be impressed...ahh well.

KungPao

Ah just leave it. The bees and other bugs will thank you for it.

This, I don't know what the obsession for sterile mini golf course lawns is about. Peer pressure for adults, all this lawnmowing activity.
There is a let it grow wild for May campaign, help the bees.

Because it tends to be unusable..

If you've an acre out the back, then 100% apportion a section for growing wild but your average postage stamp back garden has to be cut if you've any intentions of using it.
