Just don't bag simple as that.

I am telling you wet the lawn I keep a spray nozzle with me most customers have a hose doesn't take.much water to cut the dust. Another trick if you bag is wet the lawn mower bag it'll get dirty but will also collect the dust

That's a good way to rot a bag out, and depending on location also a good way to burn a lawn.

Curious how wetting a lawn mower bag would burn the lawn. And yes it definately shortenes the life of the bag

Wetting a lawn mower bag wont burn a lawn, but watering a lawn just enough to stop the dust in the middle of the day in bright sunlight and hot temperatures can cause more damage to the grass than not.

Guess that's true. Haven't had that happen yet but maybe o should rethink that technique

Same reason why you shouldn't water a garden while the sun is beaming on it in hot weather.

The other thing you can do is not cut it so often. Let your grass go for two or three weeks before cutting sometimes allows time for it too thicken. Cutting to often and too short promotes weed growth.

With all the dust he said he is getting. Some weeds might help.

Not mowing it would also let the weeds grow (obviously :tongue

Speaking of my personal yard.....it'll get cut after it rains and wets the ground a little. This time of the year I'm also cutting it much taller.
