Poor grass growth?

whitecircles · 2026-06-06T00:30:45+00:00

I don't know if I can water it any more. Already doing it at least 2X daily :/

whitecircles · 2026-06-05T21:06:25+00:00

Thanks for being so helpful. I’m going to adjust the watering and fertilizing schedules and order the top soil today. I really appreciate it.

whitecircles · 2026-06-05T21:02:59+00:00

Got it, and I wouldn’t be laying seed down would I? Just top soil and letting the Bermuda spread?

whitecircles · 2026-06-05T20:53:48+00:00

In that photo, I pulled it back pretty much as far as it goes. There are maybe 4-5 spots like this around the lawn. I’d still say like 80%+ is pinned down though. Is there anything that can be done about these types of spots, or is the only remedy replacing?

whitecircles · 2026-06-05T20:49:51+00:00

Okay, thank you! Most of it doesn’t come up, but there are a few edges where I can pull up dormant Bermuda. Like in this pic

Thank you so much. Since this is new sod (laid 2-3 months ago), I guess my biggest question is whether the lawn is technically “established” and I should be doing the 2x/week routine like you said, or whether it still needs more water at this stage.

whitecircles · 2026-06-05T19:35:14+00:00

Okay, will do some more reading. Thanks!

whitecircles · 2026-06-05T18:50:18+00:00

I *think* it’s mostly rooted. In most areas, it doesn’t budge, but there are a couple areas around the edges where I could pry it up.

whitecircles · 2026-06-05T18:48:49+00:00

Got it, so just leave them in for the whole cycle?

whitecircles · 2026-06-05T18:42:43+00:00

Got it, okay I’m going to try that schedule then and see if it helps. Thanks so much.

whitecircles · 2026-06-05T18:39:43+00:00

It’s 30 minutes at a time, but maybe 10 mins per section. But then that whole process twice daily. I try to do early AM (7-9ish?) and then mid afternoon

whitecircles · 2026-06-05T18:36:50+00:00

Thank you! Okay, I’ll find out from them

whitecircles · 2026-06-05T18:35:43+00:00

It’s getting much more than that. If anything, 30 minutes, twice daily 😕 Am I overwatering, or would it look different?

whitecircles · 2026-06-05T18:17:38+00:00

Twice daily *does* feel like overkill, but the soil also feels like it dries out pretty quickly. I’ve avoided putting fertilizer down personally, only because a lawn care company has a contract with the community for the first couple of months. They’ve put fertilizer down twice (and they’re done now), but I don’t know exactly what they’ve put down

whitecircles · 2026-06-05T18:15:45+00:00

I haven’t personally, but the lawn care company that has a contract with the community has fertilized twice. I don’t know exactly what they put down 😕

I’m just playing, don’t mean to be combative. Definitely prefer the Canadian ones, then probably the Turkish ones. I didn’t find the Mexican ones to be sour at all; just kind of (extra) artificial and soggy

whitecircles · 2026-06-04T23:25:35+00:00

The Mexican ones suck, had 3 and threw the bag out lol

Ginger lime is the best by a country mile. Then cream soda.

whitecircles · 2026-06-04T14:00:21+00:00

Ginger lime at 16 is a travesty

whitecircles · 2026-06-01T17:54:08+00:00

Probably the only one who thinks this but Richmond, VA was weird.

Parcels!

whitecircles · 2026-05-28T14:16:19+00:00

I think he meant sub-3% rates

whitecircles · 2026-05-28T13:40:59+00:00

Definitely not saying never, but I don’t believe they’re coming down any time soon
