re: Bad areas in Centipede

Man don’t I know. Ronk, I probably have about 1000 to 1500 sq ft like this. Would you clean it out and just come back with Zoysia sod? I know it’s super aggressive. I’d hope it would end up taking over the whole back yard. The back yard that was sodded with centipede is about 15k to 20k sq ft.

The answer is yes. Take a tiller, turn the scrappy spots of centipede over, throw some zoysia sod in its place. Problem solved. Certain cultivars of zoysia have the same type of blade as centipede so it mixes in well. Ronk will tell you to plow or nuke your whole yard and kill the centipede like it stole something from you. Centipede wronged him in a previous life.
If you want a quick fix do what I suggested. That’s a nice looking piece of property you have. Wish I had a pond out back.

If a full sun yard I’d go Bermuda. I have tif 419 which is a dominant yard but Bermuda has one a long way. Most notably tahoma31. 31 can withstand shade. If really shady I’d suggest geo zoysia.
Ultimately I prefer Bermuda due to disease resistance and injury recovery.
