Earliest time to cut the grass tomorrow??

I’m on a new build estate, so lots of people living around me. I need to cut the grass tomorrow but want to do it as early as possible to avoid the heat - health conditions make it too difficult once it warms up. Obviously I don’t want to be a dick though 🤦‍♀️

What’s the consensus? 9am???

You don’t need to wait past 9.

Where are you? I’m in the midlands and the temp is dropping quite considerably tomorrow.

10am on a Sunday, any eariler than that I would get the rage.

I’d say 10am. Don’t think there’ll be any difference in temperature between 9-10.

10 am.

9am on the weekend

Personally I would think 9 a.m is a reasonable time to cut grass on a weekend.
My feeling is if you live in an area where houses have gardens then normal garden maintenance activities at that time are perfectly acceptable.

8am

10am.

Happywalnut · 30/05/2026 17:18

I would say 9 too. 9.30 even better if you can.

sittingonabeach · 30/05/2026 17:17

Is it not cooling down in your area? We are forecast rain from tomorrow (possibly tonight) so did mine this afternoon

Certainly wouldn’t do it before 9

I was just thinking the same thing!
I thought 9 would be ok but it will be good to hear what others say
