When can I mow my grass and how high; and do I need a special mower?
FAQ's Bermuda GrassesYou can generally start mowing 3-4 weeks after seeding your Bermuda lawn. Occasionally if growth is rampant, you may need to mow within 2 weeks after planting. Thereafter, mowing will be required in a range of 3 to 7 days depending on various factors. Bermudas are mowed from around 3/8 inch to 1 & 1/2 inches in height. Lower mowings require more frequent mowing. Height below around 1 inch may require a "reel" type mower to prevent scalping.
