Bermuda Grass-When to Cut
Q: Our bermuda grass was planted last October. How tall should we let it grow before we cut it? How do you determine height when adjusting the mower?
A: You can cut it two inches high when it reaches three inches high. A month from now reduce the height to one and one-half inches high when the grass is two and one-half inches high. To determine height, mow a little spot and use a ruler to find out how high your mower is cutting.
