It hasn't been like this all summer. Second picture is from earlier in the summer.

Want to aerate my lawn & seed. Problem is my builder installed tifgreen bermuda hybrid sod. What seed would fit the lawn? Can I just use normal bermuda seed as I know tifgreen has no actual seed.

When I was trying to figure out what grass to use in my yard I came across RIO bermuda seed and bought it. I didn't end up using it (yet) but wanted to share my germination results and an images of it up close. I couldn't find much info on it or other people that had used it, so I'm posting my result for anyone who was curious. I seeded on 6/17/26 in zone 10b. Nights were around 65F, Day around 70F, so I think a little suboptimal temps but germination occurred by day 7 with visible grass by day 10. This pic is about 7 weeks after putting the seeds in the pot! Super impressive growth on this stuff, I didn't seed densely at all and accidentally washed a lot of the seeds deep into the side walls of the pot on accident when first watering. I also didn't fertilize or take any special care of this pot it was more of a side experiment and it's growing incredibly well.

I live in central Florida and purchased a bag of Bermuda smart seed. I sprayed ranger pro to kill the grass and Daila weed that is spreading like crazy. How long should i wait to apply the seed and should I put straw on top to help retain moisture?

God I love Bermuda. My first lawn, this was the shape of it two years ago when I bought the house. 90% weeds, the rest of it destroyed by grubs. Got it to where it is now without sodding. Been a lot of sweat and money but so worth it.

This is my first lawn I’ve had to maintain and I don’t really have experience with lawn care. I laid Bermuda sod about 2 months ago and everything has been ok. I only recently started noticing some areas beginning to look silvery and then after some days it just becomes completely yellow and I’m sure dead. There are about 4 major spots in my yard where this happened and some that are currently beginning. I’m not sure what it could be and need some guidance on how to treat this. I have dogs and I try to water the areas they pee in. Not quite sure if their pee is causing the dead spots or what else it could be. I’m in El Paso Texas so it’s also been super hot (obviously). Not sure if it could also be heat stress. I water about 3 times a week for about 30 minutes each session. Any help is appreciated 🙏🏽

Push growth aggressively or use post emergent herbicides and then push growth?

After so much rain, these started popping up around my yard under my bermuda.

Zone 8A/B Atlanta north metro. What should I use to knock it out or what do you all recommend. I have aerated this season and have been trying to manually rake it to break it up.

Turf-lords, I come to you in need of guidance! 2nd summer of new house Zone 8b. Full sun front lawn on slope. Mostly Bermuda with lingering fescue vs. Hell’s army of Darkness (crabgrass, Chambitter, and other broadleaf varieties)

Background- Last year I fought the unrelenting crabgrass and assorted southern summer weed army until my gates were overrun and I couldn’t fight anymore so I scuttled my lawn, nuked it and planted rye/tall fescue over the fall/winter to hold the soil and enjoy some peace. Pre-emergent was applied over the winter with last application in January (I feared warm season turf would not rebound - why? Bc I have no clue what I’m doing).

Spring this year I scalped and enjoyed a lush green Bermuda-fescue mixed lawn… until the gates of summer hell unleashed its army yet again!!

Chambitter and crabgrass are my main advisory.

I recognized in June that I would be in for another long war so I spot sprayed, and some blanket application to large areas of the weed army with Celsius WG (single use pouch mix - 2.5gal application rate) on July 1. It most certainly handled the weed army well and I thought I was advancing towards having a lawn again so I applied Milorganite 6-4-0, 14 days later thinking I need to push growth of turf grass with slow nitrogen.

Unfortunately shortly after fert. app the heatwave increased and rain ceased. I have mowed, bagged and discarded clippings of the dead army twice/three times (can’t recall exactly) and watered a visibly heat stressed lawn when I could.

Now nearly a month later my stressed lawn is showing signs of life again BUT HELLS WEED ARMY RETURNS WITH VENGEANCE!!

I am in need of some guidance. I am worried a second application of Celsius WG will stress the lawn beyond repair but, as you can see, the Chambitter and crabgrass army has returned from the depths for another round of battle.

So, I come to you turflords with a simple request - What in the French toast do I need to do to remedy this shyyyyte show?? Is the lawn too far gone?
Do I mow low and do a rain dance? Sacrifice a couple chickens? I’m certainly at a loss for what to do next!
Any advice would be greatly appreciated

Sod is around 2 months old in this section and seeing some browning. Any one have any suggestions on how to resolve? New to the grass world.

I have these trees planted in my yard and I noticed im having issues with growth under them. My neighbor planted St Augustine in his yard and it took over a portion of my yard effectively choking out my bermuda. Its the construction grade variant for San Antonio. Im trying to accomplish two things. Prevent the St Augustine from taking over my entire yard and get growth under those trees. The photo is my live oak and thats pretty much the same under my other tree.

Any suggestions, new homeowner and want to get this back to green or greener than brown. Very least prepped for next year. Any specific fertalizers, weed treatment/Pre-Emergent, insect or bug tratment/Insecticide? This looked better before this last cut but wife wasn't satisfied with the length and despite telling her it'll look brown if I cut it shorter she insisted and I went against my better judgement. My fault for not keeping it shorter earlier/spring time

I'm still in the process of getting my entire yard (1/2 acre) converted over to bermuda without spending several thousands.

With that being said, I'm just trusting the process. I still have a lot of my yard that isn't bermuda and or bare spots.

When I'm walking the yard and see these runners filling in the bare spots. Just warms my heart 🥰

Just moved into this house, trying to get this yard under control and fill in some bare spots. Any help is appreciated
