A Qualcast Cylinder , but any mower with a roller will create stripes. A cylinder will not cut any higher than about 25mm so i have a Honda Rotary to cut it higher. The longer the grass the better it retains moisture so i let it grow higher when it is hotter. The success to good grass cutting is to only cut a third of the blade of grass at any one time , if you cut more than that it will go yellow for a few days. Fertiliser and water are highly important.

Scarifying is ok early season after killing the moss, but it will come back whatever you do to be honest. Aeration is probably not required unless there has been really heavy traffic over it cor several years.
