Is your lawn looking long, leggy, and ugly? It’s time for a spring scalp, but you don’t need an expensive reel mower to get the job done.

In today’s video, we’re taking a different approach. I’m putting "average homeowner" equipment to the test to see if they can handle a heavy scalp on a thick lawn. We’ll be using a standard John Deere riding mower, the Ego battery-powered mower, and finally, we’ll see if the Lymow One Plus robotic mowers can handle the finishing touches.

Scalping is one of the best things you can do to reset your turf, but it isn’t always easy. We ran into some serious struggles with the sheer volume of grass, and I’ll show you exactly how to navigate those hurdles so you don’t destroy your equipment or your grass.
