Transcript
Why do people braid their grass like this in the summertime? Most people think they're crazy for doing it, but there's actually a genius reason behind it. They gather up the long overgrown grass strand by strand and braid it exactly like hair, working across the entire lawn until it forms one massive spiral. People with large yards and gardens do this because they don't wanna have to mow the lawn over and over again, and braiding keeps everything down and maintained without ever touching a mower. And once it's finished, the design is so sturdy that it protects the plants from frost during the winter.
