    In my hybrid Bermuda lawn I have patches of common Bermuda grass and a large leaf Zosia that were most likely planted from seed when workmen made lawn repairs. They both look ugly next to the hybrid Bermuda, but the common Bermuda I could see blending somewhat. My neighbor who has a lot of shade in his yard, had the Bermuda removed and a very fine blade Zosia sod put down, it looks very similar to hybrid Bermuda. Of course, the problem with mixing grass types is getting patchy areas, so it must take a constant effort to keep them blended and looking good.

My lawn has quite a bit of Poa Annua in it from the Greenspace. I’ve been core aerating & overseeing with Barenbrug RTF the last 3 yrs & putting down a fall pre-emergent .

    • @Ryan-ii9rx
      @Ryan-ii9rx 5 месяцев назад

      Quinclorac 75 and MSO for the crabgrass. Make sure you mix in the methylated seed oil though as it’s an adjuvant. Bermuda is tolerant, but when I’ve used it, there is a little bleaching around where the crabgrass was in the Bermuda. Bermuda is tough though and will fill in quickly if that does happen

      Yes, as long as you don't let them go dry. The main purpose of putting down a little straw is to help shade the ground and keep the seedlings from drying out as quickly, and also to help keep the seeds from floating away when it rains. If you keep them watered enough they should germinate just fine.

      Unfortunately Zeon isn’t available as a seed, only sod. Just has Zeon installed in March and looked for seed in case I needed to fill any areas that didn’t take. After some searching online found it’s only available as sod.
