In this video, I explain why renovating too late, renovating a lawn that doesn’t need it, cutting the grass too short and making other simple mistakes can cause more harm than good.

In this video, I revisit several very different lawns and show how the Mammotion robot mowers have performed in real-world conditions. From a huge “monster lawn” to smaller domestic gardens, we’ll look at the quality of cut, reliability, edge cutting and the impact of regular mowing on the overall condition of the grass.
I’ll also explain how frequently cutting the lawn can help it remain dense, healthy and better able to compete with weeds—whether you create a complete schedule or simply send the mower out whenever the grass needs cutting.
Most importantly, can you genuinely leave these machines to look after the mowing—and how do you choose the right robot for the size and demands of your garden?

Back in January, the lawn was extremely thin, patchy and struggling after winter. Rather than immediately reaching for the grass seed or carrying out an expensive renovation, I decided to concentrate on the fundamentals of lawn care.
By August, the same lawn had become thicker, greener and almost unrecognisable—and no renovation was needed.

In this video, I explain:
✅ Why I chose not to renovate the lawn
✅ How regular mowing helped the grass thicken
✅ The role lawn feed played in its recovery
✅ Why patience is sometimes better than overseeding
✅ How to decide whether your own lawn genuinely needs renovating
If your lawn is looking thin, patchy or tired, don’t assume you need to rip everything up and start again. Sometimes, getting the basics right is enough to produce a fantastic recovery.
Would you have renovated this lawn, or waited to see whether it recovered? Let me know in the comments.
