Kentucky Bluegrass is the most commonly used grass seed in Cincinnati, Ohio. It is, in fact, used in more than 2\/3 of the North of the state. This type of grass is probably the best choice if you are looking for a smooth and fine textured lawn. Compared to various other species, Bluegrass grows much better and rapidly even in winters and is much more resistant to diseases. Depending on the condition of the soil, Bluegrass usually takes 1-3 months to fully grow. Moreover, this type of grass seed also covers areas with damaged and deprived soil, therefore making it easier for you to make your lawn look even more beautiful. Also the lush green color makes it more eye-catching.<\/p>

Lawn mowing height:<\/strong> Kentucky bluegrass should be maintained at 2 1\/2 inches and mowed at least once per week during peak growing season.<\/p>

Bentgrass is the most high quality and premium grass type you can go for. It is mostly used in places such as golf courses. This type of grass requires regular maintenance including timely mowing, proper irrigation, fertilization and protection against pests and diseases. Since it is expensive and difficult to maintain, it is not recommended to plant in average homes. However, if you wish you to add this type of grass to your lawn, you can go for its sub-type, PenncrossCreeping, which is a bit less strenuous to maintain.<\/p>

Lawn mowing height:<\/strong> Bentgrass should be maintained at less than 1\/2 of an inch and mowed a couple times per week during peak growing season.<\/p>

6. Buffalograss<\/h2>

Dull green in color and a bit rough and edgy in texture, Buffalograss is low quality grass that is commonly found in the state of Ohio. However, this low maintenance grass is still a good option for those who wish to dedicate a small piece of their landscape to planting some grass. It is compatible with Ohio\u2019s climate and does not require any extra care or high quality soil.<\/p>

Lawn mowing height:<\/strong> Buffalograss should be maintained at 2 1\/2 to 3 1\/2 inches and mowed a couple times per week during peak growing season.<\/p>

Grass Seed Options:
