Katz i mow my own grass and right now i need to cut it right around every 7th day . Sometime every 5th day depends if it rains.I have st augustine grass as opposed to zoya in the southern part of the villages. Zoya can be cut shorter than augustine. I used to cut mine shorter to make it look prettier but i also found out that if you cut augustine too short it doesnt stay healthy and can develop dead areas. Then if that gets too bad you have to go buy some sod to fill it in and thats too much like work.I think i have my mower set at 2 and 1/2 inches now. Maybe 3. It starts getting shaggy on about the 5th day after i mow it. But the st augustine will look nice if you take care of it properly.
