Kentucky Blue Grass

[aladinsane2005]

Hi,

My first post! Just bought my first riding lawnmower, a Cub Cadet XT 2 w/fab deck with a Kawasaki engine 18-19 HP. I would like to know what is the best height to cut Kentucky Bluegrass at?

Thx

"Kentucky bluegrass can be mowed as low as 1.5 inches in the cooler times of the year. This height increases to 3 to 4 inches in summer to help it survive the summer heat. Personally, I rarely adjust my mower below 4 inches all year. That may seem high if you are not used to it, but the grass quickly adjusts. The additional blade length enables the grass to endure drought and heavy traffic."
This is from the Lawn Care Acadamy
