TO STRIPE OR NOT TO STRIPE? ![]()
That is the question............![]()
The answer is it’s up to you and personal taste. A rotary mower with a roller will be slightly heavier than one without as it is the weight on the roller that causes the grass to be ‘ironed’ flat.![]()
Apart from the visual striping effect, mowers with rollers have other benefits which deserve serious consideration:![]()
•Bumps in the lawn are not so easily scalped as the roller helps the mower ride over the bump rather than straddle it. ![]()
•The roller has a slight firming action flattening divots and worm casts.![]()
•You can usually get closer to the edge of a lawn with a roller because it won’t ‘drop over the edge’ like a wheel.
