4.1 LAWN STRIPING
HOW DOES LAWN STRIPING WORK?
The “stripe” that you see on the lawn is actually light reflecting off the blades of grass. The direction in which the grass is bent determines the “light” or “dark” stripe. When the blades of grass are bent away from you, the grass appears lighter in color because light is reflecting off of the length of the blade. When the blades of grass are bent towards you, the stripe appears darker as you are looking at more of the tips of the blades (a smaller reflective surface) and the shadows under the blades of grass. Cutting a lawn in the up/down, north/south, east/ west, opposing directions provides the best stripe effect.
You may find that certain grasses have a more noticeable stripe (stripe easier) than others. Cutting the grass at a different height can sometimes change the intensity of the stripe. A slightly higher cut (example: 3" versus 2.5") can provide more grass to be bent over, thus producing a more noticeable stripe. In some types of grass, this may have the opposite or no effect.
Grass that tends to be "stiff" and resists bending will not yield a stripe as well as a softer grass that bends easily.
Note that you do not need to cut the grass in order to stripe it. The roller simply needs to be in the unlocked/engaged position. You may find that when creating more advanced, overlapping striping patterns, you can complete the job faster by applying the overlaying stripes without the blades engaged.
Striping can be used to draw attention to particular landscape features. It can be used to further enhance the finished, manicured cut that your Scag mower delivers.
