Could be a number of things. To much Pre Emergent, soil to hard, variety of grass, not mowing often enough, not using the right fertilizers, needs too dressing, but in most cases when I see that it’s because on soil compaction. A really good aeration and or top soil dressing normally fixes that issue. The roots that are supposed to tack down can’t penetrate the soil.
Your channel and another RUclipsr “Lawn Insider” I watch passionately, you guys are are the man when it comes to taking care of my Bermuda grass especially in the south. I live in SATX and we have water restrictions but even with the restrictions my yard is still the healthiest and the greenest lawn. I have a golf course lawn and have the best yard in our subdivision. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR KNOWLEDGE. Knowledge is power! Don’t stop what you are doing it’s very therapeutic and a true blessing for passionate lawn owners like myself.
I can't wait to have my own yard look that nice I said b4 I rent an I pay the guys who cut the yard in beer but I really want a nice yard like yours brother
Great video, BYD. I must say - this video helped me kill my denial, lol. From the start of the season, I've been trying to maintain my turf at fairway height (0.45") ... but after hearing you say "find that sweetspot" for months, I finally raised my HOC to 0.6" and the turf looks fantastic. Thanks!
Had to raise my HOC was way overdue a couple of weeks with all the rain we had. Had to raise the deck an 1” to setting 3.0, which puts my Bermuda around 1.5-2”, a little taller than I’d like, but I go by the 1/3 rule, (never cut no more than 1/3 off the grass blade tips to prevent that scalped look). Need new blades, will have to pick some up. Looks like you have a big yard to be pushing it, I use a 50” ExMark Quest residential zero turn mower with the mulch kit for my acre. But that is good exercise! I picked up my new 31-gallon tow behind sprayer from Northern Tool and put it together, will calibrate and want to start spraying TNEX PGR. Hoping it will allow me to not have to mow as much, maybe once a week. My problem is my backyard is low and when we get rain, I have to wait for the lawn to dry out so I don’t rut it up w my heavy mower. You need to do a video on PGR. Thanks from Northeast Arkansas.
I love these videos from ya. I personally just go to the highest setting. I have some random scotts crap the last home owner planted. If i go too low it gets brown.
It's been so dry my bermuda hasn't been growing much. I've even watered the lawn 3 times this week and it's still struggling. I had to not mow this weekend because of the lack of growth. It gave me a good excuse to introduce my sons to the movie Major Payne today, though.
With how temps are going I’m thinking I’ll use stress blend in a couple weeks instead of getting greedy for green with flagship. I’ve already been stressing it by accidentally scalping it all season until a week ago, and this summer feels like it’ll be brutal
Changed my HOC to 2 inches (third tab). I mow at least once a week and water every 5 days. How do you water your strips along the sidewalks? Looking at getting at least one of the orbit sprinklers maybe 2. My back yard is 2200 square feet and takes awhile to cover with an oscillating hose end sprinkler. Thanks BYD!
Each year the Dalis is taking over. I'm in North Texas. 06/15/22 were in the 100s already. I want to keep my Bermuda green but not feed this invasive impossible to kill weed.
How many times per week should I cut my bermuda in the Texas three digits heat? I've been doing since spring every 3 to 4 days. In the summer, do I extend the cut days?
There is no best. Best brand is Toro though because of warranty and easy to get serviced. Best battery 🔋 mower I’ve used is Greenworks 25 inch dual battery 60. Best balance mower I’ve used is the ryobi cross cut.
yooo did you actually delete your Instagram because people were calling you out for you lack of training on your employees. this might not be the industry for you.
BYD why do l have runners all across the top of my grass . If my grass was hair it looks like l need some Dax real bad
Great question, I have them too

Here on the Texas Gulf Coast in between Houston and Galveston. I have St. Augustine and keeping the HOC at 3 inches.
Nice just visited my bro in law in league city- he has St. Aug also cut pretty high 👍🏻
I can't wait to have my own yard look that nice I said b4 I rent an I pay the guys who cut the yard in beer but I really want a nice yard like yours brother
I found out that my sweet spot on my kobalt mower is 2 inches. If I mow too low, then it leaves scalp and swirl marks.
Good video. Literally was in front yard asking self this exact question yesterday evening. Dallas, TX here.
Where you been all my life lol , thanks for the tips and advice much appreciated 🙏
You’re welcome 😆
Digging the hat, bro. I'm going to use the term HOC and soud like a professional, lol.
I literally had this question last week. Thanks for the video!
Nice presentation. Cheers!

Love your videos learning alot.
Great info my hoc is 2 3/4

Duh. Lol I should hve finished the video. Yeah i am probably taking too much off at once.

I only can mow my Bermuda once a week, so I leave it a little tall and try to stick to the 1/3 or 1/4 rule.
Just keep in mind, you measure your HOC on the concrete but once the mower gets in the lawn, it may sink a little bit lower.
You didn’t watch the entire video Tyler 1:36
I addressed that on my IG a channel instagram.com/tv/CewSsa2DnVw/?igshid=MDJmNzVkMjY=
Uh yes, yes I did…

Great information BYD
Thanks Rich 🤑
Nice Sombrero.
My yards at 3/4" atm, I'm about to sand level and I'll prolly keep it at 1" all of July
That’s super short lol
That “Feels Like 111” is what our actual temps are, lol.

I have been cutting every 3 days and looks green and padded, nice. Is every three days ok vs more often?
Is about time to do another pgr treatment don’t want to get that rebound effect in this heat
PGR is ok but I found that it hurts my lawn in 95 plus degree weather. I’m holding of on that.
Big yard dog 🐕🐶👍🏿🔥

Same here I've got runners all over the top of my grass . 9 days of 100 pluss has my lawn looking rough
I'm in forney...next to garland...I have the same problem...I'm trying to keep my Bermuda from going dormant in August or winter time
Great video!
Can you stripe Bermuda at 3-4 inches?
So for dry spots do you just put down more water?
Yes but you’ll literally have to use A water hose with nozzle in that area.
@@BYDonBermudaGrassCentral ok thanks I’ll try it out. The heat stress here in Texas is unreal
How many times per week should I cut my bermuda in the Texas three digits heat? I've been doing since spring every 3 to 4 days.
In the summer, do I extend the cut days?
Keep that up, don’t start raising the height to compensate trying to keep it green either. Trust the process ( it will get back greener with rain 🌧️ )
@BYDonBermudaGrassCentral
Thank you, that's good to know because sometimes, after a cut in the heat, the grass goes from very green to dull green.
What’s the best lawnmower to get? I’m new to this
There is no best. Best brand is Toro though because of warranty and easy to get serviced. Best battery 🔋 mower I’ve used is Greenworks 25 inch dual battery 60. Best balance mower I’ve used is the ryobi cross cut.
@@BYDonBermudaGrassCentral thank you!! I have a huge lawn and yard. I’m tired of paying and they don’t cut it how I want.
What happened to the green works mower??
Still on Deck, just using these other mowers for now.
Go Dawgs
Yes suh 🙌🏾
Is your grass from seed or sod?
Hybrid Sod
yooo did you actually delete your Instagram because people were calling you out for you lack of training on your employees. this might not be the industry for you.
Lol, you watch cricket as well. Good video though
I love ❤️ cricket and Soccer ⚽️
