Cheers mate, I have been getting serious twitchy fingers on it.
Raised the blade up a notch for these cuts .
Going to put a good feed & weed on later hopefully it'll be lush in a month.
Love this time of year
Been using this for years @GrandOldTeam
Once you kill off the moss this stuff keeps it away , cant fault it.
You are a legend mate, I've got that same stuff but I kept overthinking last year on when I should try using it.
I am so bad when it comes to overthinking. I thought if I used that it would than kill any seed I tried using.
Spring equinox, 12 hours of light today.

Yes its dry cut mine 3 times already
Pot up any cuttings you rooted last September into small pots & place back in your greenhouse or a kitchen window sill .... water well in & leave to dry out ... cover up with fleece if there are any cold night frost etc... saves using heat keep your door shut for the heat to build up ....
Or if you have aflymow with a box no need to raise any blades
Just finished.
As always I ended up cutting it that bit to short, left some lovely scuffs, bare patches, and a wonderful array of weeds gazing up at me.
But blue skies, Sunshine and the lovely smell of freshly cut grass, it's a great feeling. (I'll curse myself later for my repetitive mistakes)
Thanks for the response though, it gave me the kick I needed

Is this the right sort of time for the Miracle Gro.
I’ve been wondering around the garden again today , prodding here and there, snowdrops starting to fade daffs not at their peak yet, grass still to have its first cut - we’re usually a few weeks behind everyone else , 12 deg today though 
.
I also had a check of my wild flower meadow , mainly to see if the Viper’s Bugloss had seeded. They’re hard work and every so often need coaxing into self seeding by creating some bare earth for the seeds to reach. Although they do seem to somehow float in the wind over the fence into any patch of bare earth in the garden. They are magnificent when they flower in swathes and fantastic the amount of bees they attract .

Ive just done mine.
Any bits of weed or moss should die off and the grass start to green up and thicken in a week or 2.
Try not to walk on it for a day or 2.
Just read the label should tell you , its pretty easy tbh.
I do mine every 2 months or so , weather permiting.
I love that you have set aside a spot for a wildflower meadow, there is much joy in seeing nature appreciate your work.I’ve been wondering around the garden again today , prodding here and there, snowdrops starting to fade daffs not at their peak yet, grass still to have its first cut - we’re usually a few weeks behind everyone else , 12 deg today though
