Guide to Bentgrass

Bentgrass is a cool season grass. Bentgrass has fine blades, and is a very low growing grass that can be cut as low as 1/4 of an inch. It’s also considered a very high maintenance type of grass that requires frequent watering and mowing and other care. Creeping bentgrass is commonly used on putting greens. Colonial bentgrass can be kept a little bit taller and would be a better choice for a lawn.

Mow Bentgrass between 1/4 to 1 inch.

Texas A&M offers this excellent page about Bentgrass.

See our page of cutting heights for different varieties of grasses.

All types of grasses benefit from high quality soil. Use an organic lawn fertilizer to improve the quality of your soil long term.
