    Doc, something I’m sure we’d all love to see on your website is a breakdown of how much of what product exactly you mix in a gallon and how many sq ft it should cover ect. A breakdown would be great as a quick reference! I’ve been bringing my Bermuda lawn back to looking good since I’ve lived in my new house thanks to your videos. You have been a huge help!

      @@1165slugman I'm in the process of trying to repair my lawns and I feel your pain however, in the tenants defence it's ultimately not their lawn, they simply pay off the mortgage for another person who cba to pay a gardener to fix it.
      Most tenants are treated and thought of (as demonstrated by yourself) as second rate. Personally I'd have a chat with the home owners and ask them to either pay a gardener or get off their lazy arses and tidy it up.
      After all, I don't do the gardening for hotels I frequent, do you?

    I’m in central NY and our old place oddly had a large section of Bermuda. Stuff was amazing, I really didn’t have to fight weeds there very often as the Bermuda was so thick it choked them out. It also went dormant in the fall, way sooner than the cool season turf grasses I had everywhere else. Seeing that much weed load in Bermuda is crazy to me.

    Just built a new home, was so excited to start fresh with new landscaping that I had been planning for over a year. And has you and others understand the lawn is the foundation of the beautiful plantings. I had the sod installed , it was doormat, so the house is done and the yard is in and it starts greening up and it’s full of some type of grass/weed called Dallas grass. So, now what. I had it treated and results. Would love to have some ideas. Thank you . Your lawn is beautiful.

    Hi Doc, I stumbled across your page a little over a week ago when looking into overseeding. So happy to find you. My yard got ignored when I was out of town a ton for a couple years. I haven't been able to get it back on my own but, now I have a defined plan with you. I tried the Bayer Advanced Season Long Weed Control for Lawn on a sunny day 8 days ago and it has been overcast with rain and cold days most of last week. I'm not seeing it dying off as I hoped. Can I put down another dose of it now or if I still don't see major improvement at the 10-day mark (Monday)? The grass is still dormant. I am determined to reclaim my yard which used to be fantastic. I did water it in and actually went a tad heavy with it (it said 2.5 oz, I did 3). Thank you so much. I'm tired of checking the mail at night because I'm embarrassed.

    Doc, my back yard looks worse than this yard. This past spring I started to plant Bermuda back there and I lacked on keeping up with the weeds. Now I still have about 30% Bermuda back there that is visible. Next spring 2019 I plan to use your methods that you used on this lawn. Will I be able to use super juice and seed? Has this been tested yet. Let me know I am curious. Also can I throw down my weed killer that you used at this time of the year? We live in the panhandle of Florida. Weather is starting to get 85 day time and 50 or 60s at night. Thanks doc hope to hear back from you soon.

However, I would like to seed it. I bought the Blackjack seed you recommended. Since we are already in October, do you think I should reseed during this time of the year? Temperatures are on the 50' at night and 80"s during day time. Do you recommend doing the treatment and seeding at the same time? Or should I wait until spring time?Thank you for videos. I have learned so much about taking care of Bermuds grass.

    @adamtaylor4627 4 года назад

    I JUST moved into a new rental home in a GREAT neighborhood, and the lawn at this house looks EXACTLY like the before pictures! If I'm not mistaken though, the difference is that this lawn started as a St. Augustine lawn. I spoke with the HOA secretary and she said that they don't have any requirements for the TYPE of grass that's in the yard, just that it's nice, so I'm VERY seriously thinking about razing the whole damn thing and seeding with Bermuda grass instead.
    I'm in Land O Lakes, FL and I may go that route, unless you have another suggestion for killing this entire lawn of weeds while NOT killing what every little St. Augustine grass is left?
