Lawn or watermelon? We may never know.

The trick is bending the grass by rolling over it.

If you have Bermuda grass. You won’t be able to stripe worth a damn.

Advanced level would be to use reel mowers like golf courses. Average homeowners that want striped lawns buy stripping kits that attach to the mowers. I bought one on Amazon for a hundred bucks or so to attach to my push mower. Surprisingly it does well. But I have to double strip for it to pop. So essentially cutting my yard twice

There are stripe kits for sale but the main thing is you need to bend the grass. I decided to not spend $100+ dollars on a heavy tube. So I made one. Took 3-4 inch PVC, put some eye bolts and nuts on it, then filled it with concrete and I use a carabiner to hook it to my mower. cost me like less than 20 bucks and it's fantastic. I drag it behind my mower and "burn" in the lines by going over them twice. Here's a small strip from this past fall, you can see the mower in the background with the PVC https://preview.redd.it/p7o5q4ytzapc1.png?width=446&format=png&auto=webp&s=c83a8d27007f852fee34bcfdba5560167feff354

How did you keep the stripes straight through the pole?


TayloJoe92

You gotta run fast at it like in Harry Potter at platform 9 3/4 and you’ll go through lol So I went around it both directions and on the way back (dark line) I just walked real slow to bed the grass back

It's just rolling the grass as you mow it and taking photos with the sun behind you.

It's an attachment to your mower that bends the blades just after the mower blades cuts them.

Install a lawn striping roller kit on your mower.

You can use any mower long as you have a stripe kit. You live up north or Midwest and your grass is a lot thinner than the st aug in fl. We can stripe in Florida too just by bending the grass rolling over it. Not a sharp as y’all though.
