It's been down two weeks & is looking lovely & green & healthly but does look in need of a cut now, is it too soon?

I think it should be ok as long as you don't cut it too short.

The most important thing is to make sure you keep watering it (unless of course it is raining - like it is here right at the minute!) until you know it is well rooted into the ground below.

We had turf put down last year and we cut it after about 2/3 weeks - didn't do it any harm.

I think its about two weeks to so thanks helbo cos ours is at the two week stage, i dont think you are supposed to leave it too long otherwise when you cutit wont it go yellow. It does look nice though
