    Man doc i know you're retired but your entire lifestyle is soo inspiring to me as a 26 year old. The things you get to do and enjoy in day to day life as simple as they are is exactly what i strive for when i hit retirement. Thanks for the content!

    I’ve got hybrid Bermuda so I just take plugs from the good stuff and plug the bare spots instead of messing with seed. 20:56 20:56 Spreads and fills in pretty fast.

    What would you recommend for my partial shade areas around fence lines and small shrubs? Zoysia plugs or should I just seed a fescue or other cool season and deal with the different height/look?

    • @HowTowithDoc
      @HowTowithDoc  9 місяців тому

      Probably a fescue if it's shade.

    I'm going to fertilize in a week or so, then middle to end of May I will seed with Maya Blackjack. I will put a soil booster first. Sorta till that area, then seed and a light dusting of peat moss

    • @HowTowithDoc

      I think you'll find the PEAT might cause issues if you have a heavy rain. It tends to float and bunch up.

    • @HowTowithDoc
      @HowTowithDoc  9 місяців тому +2

      I don't think it's worth the trouble, time, or problems with distribution. While it may reduce the TIME for growth, the tradeoff is just not a justification IMHO

    Decided I am going to reseed. I have hybrid Bermuda. ( used weed killer in my rock beds, didn’t follow directions never diluted the solution and it bleed into my grass killing most of my front lawn.) my plan is to cut low, detach, and aerate. Then will spread LaPrima Bermuda Grass Seed. After watering 2-3 times per day do I need to use any other products? Hancock website is also recommending I buy the fertilizer and Bermuda turf seed. Appreciate your guidance DOC

    Doc what if you have common Bermuda and want to convert to a hybrid like Yukon? Do you kill it all and plant two weeks later ( if 80* temps)? I don’t remember a video on this. Thanks for all your help, we have been enjoying your knowledge for several years.

    • @HowTowithDoc
      @HowTowithDoc  9 місяців тому +1

      Yes you'd have to kill with PLAIN GLYPHO first. Then seed once you have a rain event.

      Yep I had to kill off everything with glyphosate twice and then come back and spot treat for a third application. Common Bermuda is hard to kill completely. Once all dead I seeding Monaco and it turned out great. Gotta baby it when seeding. Careful about your watering.
