[quote]I put 2 of these up on my patio.[/quote] Just put one of these up on my patio about a month ago. I searched and searched and searched and every one I found had hit or miss reviews. Pulled the trigger on this one and I've been happy. Really like this mounting idea...might have to look in...

re: Leveling yard help?

Posted by lsugrad35 on 7/24/24 at 8:01 am
Exactly. I'm trying to avoid the rocks. I probably won't sand level until next late spring because I'm trying to get enough grass this year's growing season, but I'm always trying to find a place that isn't ridiculous on delivery fee and isn't more rocks than sand. I'm in Gonzales though....

Just common that you let start taking over?...
Hopefully everyone's lawns are enjoying these last few days of rainfall. I'm caught between "we been needin this" and "it's been 3 days since I could mow"...
Got one of these a few weeks ago and it is awesome. I just don't have any areas thick enough to steal from yet. But I was going to try to take some plugs and put around my patio where its just bare right now....
Oh no it's all over the yard. My front yard I dug most of it up with a fiskars weed puller, but they are mature and the root system is intense and even some of it has grown back because you miss one piece and it'll just take back over. Also, it grabs so much soil you end up with big holes. Beside...
[quote]shoelessjoe[/quote] We're going to need to see pics. I'm trying to avoid MSMA myself, but I have dallisgrass bad. I've been spot spraying it with roundup since bermuda is so agressive I feel like it'll fill in the dead spots relatively quickly. Doing that with Centipede and you'd have d...
[quote]bayoubengals88[/quote] Your pics inspire me every time you post them :lol:. My backyard is coming along from 100% just dirt and weeds to now looking like it at least has some grass. It's all common bermuda. My front yard I'm starting to cut lower and lower to get rid of the centipede...

Grass for shaded areas

Posted by lsugrad35 on 7/9/24 at 9:26 am
Background: I have a Bermuda back yard and centipede (soon to be Bermuda front lawn) The south side of my house, up against the house is always shaded and doesn’t grow any grass. An area of about 4’ x 10’ shaded by my patio is the same. What can I seed or what can I do to get something other than...
I had enough of him in his weird interview during the game against us. Would still have taken the bat, but I’ll never forget the interview. Hum you guys...
Got it. I’ll pick some up. What are you using for preemergent?...
I mow 2-3 times a week. Or if you ask my wife, 2-3 times a day. I’ve done 0 fertilizing (not exactly sure what to get other than “high in nitrogen”) and the only weed control I’ve done is hitting clumps of Dallas grass with eraser because I have a bad infestation. ...
Alright here’s my situation: - back yard is approximately 5500 sqft. It got rutted up demoing an old patio and pouring fresh concrete. So I chopped it with a tractor and it became dirty, every weed known to man, and common Bermuda. My plan is to kill the weeds the remainder of the year then next ...
I’m going to get some measurements today. I’m really looking at 3 different areas. I’ll give the details when I have them. On another note, anyone buy a better wand for their sprayer? I have just a few one gallon and 2 gallon champions. I see on Bermuda Bible people have bought all of the parts ...
Can you just overseed the centipede with Bermuda, fert with nitrogen, and cut low? Is that the process for trying to get it to take over?...

Those of you with a flexzilla hose and an eley reel, any issues? I thought I read that Eley doesn't recommend aluminum fittings and I think Flexzilla fitting is aluminum am I right? Flexzilla: [quote]Anodized aircraft aluminum ends[/quote] Eley FAQ: [quote]No Aluminum Fittings! Avoid attach...

Love my Flexzilla hoses. I'm still shopping for reels because I can't bring myself to pay Eley prices and I need 2 of them....
