And the one thing I have learned in all the years, is you can take all of the charts and knowledge and everything ever said and printed...
You can take all that and do what ever you want with it, because the higher I cut, the better it looks in the long run.
Every single time, doesn't seem to matter what kind of grass, we are talking residential non-sports field / non-commercial turf.
Today if I could cut higher I would but my mowers are all maxed out height wise.
And the hotter it gets outside, the more obvious this becomes.
If your grass burns every year it's because you're cutting either too short, too often, or both.
