Interesting idea! I've been getting rain as well and having the same problem that you brought up 🤔. I might have to try this. Thanks for the video and information 👍💪

I had to do the same thing last year! Just the nature of mowing Bermuda with a rotary I think. It is recovering nicely now. Appreciate ya!

I probably would not if the sod is that new but dont have a ton of experience with new sod. Glad you got some rain, we have been lucky here too! Thanks for the question and good luck with that new sod!

What do you usually maintain the lawn at? Before you reset to 2 inches

@@BossMan_Jerm I try to maintain at 2 inches each year but as the season goes on I raise the height so it varies. Currently at 2.5 inches and may go up to 3 soon. I have a un level yard and busy schedule! May not do a reset this year but it will need it.

Question. I cut mine down to 2 inches this spring so after that you're saying adjust the cut to maybe 2.5 inches and cut every 5 days or so? Thanks.

It really depends on how level your yard is and if you have hybrid or common bermuda. If you mowed it down to 2 inches this spring then mowing it frequently at 2.25 to 2.5 should work. It's all about finding the sweet spot for your lawn. This early you may not have to mow as often until it really starts growing vigorously. I mow 1 time per week right now and will pickup mowing every 5 days or so in May normally. I aim to follow the 1/3 rule with mowing kzitem.info/news/bejne/pqBosJuLjpxmf5g

@@lanieroutside I have tiftuf. Its fairly level, I added some sand in spots a few weeks back. The grass around here is turning green so I cut it that low hoping that I as resetting it... it obviously turned brown after I did that but after watching your vid I think it was the right move... I think moving forward cutting it at 2.5 might be the right move. Thanks for the response!

I had centipede sod installed April/May of this year. Can this process be done on this newer sod lawn? I live in the Savannah area and have an irrigation system.

I don’t have experience with centipede but don’t think you would want to scalp it down right now. Since it’s new keeping it watered and mowed is likely the best bet. Wish I could be of more help, good luck with your new lawn.

Is the end of August in Marietta, GA too late for reset or should I wait for the spring? Lawn sitting at about 4” and I’d like it at 1.5-2…

You are in the same climate as me as I'm just a little east of you. If you are at 4 inches I don't know if you should get it down below 2 this season. It will not kill the lawn but you are going to have to do it in stages over several weeks to get the height down that much. I would mow one notch lower each mow for a few weeks and then raise the mower up one notch and maintain the rest of the season. Make sure to water if we aren't getting much rain and that should get your height at least under 3. Normally I do my reset towards the end of July but this year I did mine early August. Thanks for watching!
