Are any of you guys in the south having problems with Bahia grass? We have seen it rain down here almost every day for the last several weeks and in the heat of the day when the sun has been shining for a while the Bahia grass is a mess. It wants to string instead of cut in a lot of yards and it grows back incredibly fast when it is cut.

Don't you just hate it? It has rained 20 out of the last 22 days.
All I can tell you is cut it twice

(( racing is the only sport that you need two balls ))
 
Not really a problem for me. I just cut it slower, once a week. It seems to rain almost daily this year. At least it's not 100+ degrees outside. I did cut grass a few hours ago and then it rained.:thumbdown:

Got up this morning at 4.30 to thunder, lightning and pouring down rain and still hasn't stopped. Seems like it's everyday morning and evening. Heck we can cheer up Tropical Storm Dorian will be here about next Wednesday. Disappointed.gif

I told you to pay all of those parking tickets or you would end up spending a day in court:0)

If all We cut was one yard it would to be that bad for us either. However time is money when you are running them for a living every minute you lose is dollars you lose. Sowing down and cutting twice costs.

We dropped on time slowing down from around 4 acres on an hour with two mowers to around 2 1/2 acres in an hour. That is how much it slowed us down. Gotta hit the same yard again tomorrow. Going to try to cut it earlier on the day and see if it does not string as bad.

Definately understand but it is what it is. We can't control the weather.
