Did you ever wonder how it is that all of the birds realize, at the same time, that spring has arrived? Is it a learned behavior from their bird parents or possibly a natural trait that comes with being a little birdie? We want to know and could just Google this feathery information, but sometimes, what’s the fun in that?

Instead, we will look into what the grass in your yard wants and needs from the season that is upon us all here in North America, spring. Yes indeed it is time to get wet and that’s exactly what the blades of grass are thinking too and they just cannot wait to receive the green light to grow and grow! At Kohler Mower Parts, we realize that spring means rain and rain means rapid growth of all blades of grass. We could limit this discussion to only the types of grass that grow in the spring, but that would be silly as all do except the unusual but beautiful, winter rye.

The grass needs rain and the water brings a metaphysical alteration to the root systems for all gras s types. Unfortunately, this includes grassy weeds as well but hey, what the heck, you all have a Kohler Engine in that lawn mower anyways!
