When does grass stop growing? The top three factors affecting YOUR lawn

At some points the grass could stop growing completely – but it’s probably just an exaggerated dip in its growth.

The summertime brings drier air and soil, which will reduce the growth rate of the grass plant.

In times of drought, the grass plant will not grow at all, and its blades may dry out completely in more extreme summers.

Autumn is generally good for grass growth so expect your lawn to thrive over the next few months, thanks to the late-summer heatwave followed by what is expected to be a cold October.
