Best Grass Types for Blacksburg
In Blacksburg, the summer heat can be brutal, so warm-season grasses are typically the best choice. However, you can also grow some cool-season varieties to create a lush green carpet in spring and fall. The most common varieties here are:
- Zoysiagrass: A thick, carpet-like warm-season turf that stands strong against foot traffic and tolerates drought. Mow it between 1 and 2 inches and watch for thatch buildup.
- Bermudagrass: This warm-season cultivar is sun-loving and robust but needs frequent mowing due to its fast growth rate. Fertilize it regularly and mow it between 1.5 and 2.5 inches.
- Kentucky bluegrass: Itβs a cool-season cultivar known for its quick establishment and rich green appearance, but it struggles in direct sunlight. Maintain a mowing height of about 2.5 inches.
- Tall fescue: This cool-season cultivar is durable and heat-resistant, but youβll need to mow it frequently. Once it gets to 3 inches, mow it back down to 2 inches.
The best mowing schedule: Mow cool-season grasses weekly during their peak growth in late spring and early fall. For the warm-season grasses, mow every 5 to 7 days in July and August.
