Had septic lines redone last fall and planted fescue seed where the yard was dug up. Now I have two different looks

3po3 on Apr 12, 2012I would start with overplanting with fescue. It's pretty cheap, and the worst case scenario is that it doesn't take, but you will still have your existing grass.Helpful Reply

Jimmy S on Apr 13, 2012Mr. Hunt. I dont know. When searching online, the only thing I saw close was bahia and dallisgrass. Not sure if these are considered weeds or grass?Helpful Reply

3po3 on Apr 13, 2012I don't think you need to rent an aerator. I would just spread the fescue seed and water and fertilize it in. How vigorously is your current grass growing?Helpful Reply

Douglas Hunt on Apr 14, 2012Bahia is definitely a type of grass; dallisgrass would probably be considered a weed. I ask because if you have something like Bermuda or St. Augustine the fescue will never take over.Helpful Reply

Jimmy S on Apr 14, 2012The current grass is not really that vigorous of a growing grass. So I might try that and see if it will begin to fill in and take over the bahia grass. Thanks so much for your guys answersHelpful Reply
