We have just moved in to our new house and the garden was turfed just before we moved in. I've done the usual stuff of watering it morning and night but I am unsure how long I need to leave it before it gets mowed for the first time. Any ideas?

not sure on time but first cut don't cut too short -
TBH in general don't cut too short anyway
Also get greenthumb on the case - best thing we did for our lawns. for the small quarterly fee they look superb and weed/moss free

Cheers mate, was just going to go steady and take the tops off, just a little and often approach seems to be the best.

I waited six weeks, let it get nice and long.

Cut it by a third after two or three weeks as it promotes strong roots. Don't let it grow really long as that does the opposite with the roots.
