- One-third rule
- Never remove more than one third of the grass blade in a single cut to avoid stressing the plant.

- Cutting the grass so short that the crown is exposed, which browns the lawn and lets weeds invade.
- Power edging
- Creating a clean vertical line along hard surfaces with a blade-driven edger instead of a string trimmer.
- Side discharge
- Ejecting clippings out the side of the mower deck, best for fast cuts on healthy, dry grass.
- Mulching
- Recutting clippings under the mower deck so they drop back into the lawn as free fertilizer.
- Thatch
- The layer of dead stems and roots between the soil and green blades. Over half an inch blocks water and air.
- Striping
- Alternating light and dark bands in the lawn caused by bending grass in opposite directions on successive passes.
