I was wondering what everyone was going to set their HOC at this year?
I am thinking about scalping at .3" and maintaining .5"

Cheers

I plan on maintaining around .300" and I want to scalp to at least .250". I definitely want to keep it below .500" all year.

I also plan on doing at least 1 if not 2 level/sanding jobs this year to help me keep my HOC super low.

I try to scalp around 0.25 and keep as low as possible, but prefer 0.375+ for the best color.

That's my plan for this year. I want to keep it at or under .500" for the year but wanted to start off at .375"

With any luck, 0.50" will be my ceiling again this year. :thumbup:

I've never been under 2.5" so for this first year of going low I'm going to scalp at 0.5" and maintain at 0.75"

Wish me luck

My target is .500. I am going to scalp it Sunday, then as long as life doesn't get in the way .500 where I will stay the rest of the year. Last year, I maintained it there until about the late August timeframe. It got away from me and I ended the year at about 1" - 1.5".

I'm hoping for 7/8". My mower's lowest setting is 3/4".

Loser over here!!!!
I scalped at 1" because that's how low mine goes and will maintain about 1" to 1.25" for the year.

Nothing wrong with that, 1.25 will look very nice.

Haven't decided. Probably 3/4 or 1 inch here. Lumpy sloped yard with lots of kid traffic and shade.

Thanks fellas. My yard is already greening up, almost 50% and just scalped it last week. Weather has been rainy and been hard to work with it. It didn't rain today and supposed to be sunny tomorrow and then rain again the next 2 days. So I will scalp again. What's helped green it up was my preM from Site-One that had a winterizer in it. Nobody in my subdivision has green grass yet, not even 1% greened unless you count the weeds.

Turf mowed at around 1.25 can look really nice. When I cut mine at that height with the rotary it looks great.

Go for it. You'll be surprised at how nice it looks.
