Tired of fescue in NC, need suggestions
Comments (22)Ok... DON'T TILL! You will sprout every flavor of weed and barnyard grass known to man.... Your "Yard" will be a 4 foot tall HAY FIELD full of crabgrass, Johnson grass, Barnyard grass, weeds, seedling trees, and every other type of weed seed that has landed in your yard in the last 5,000 years..... And.. It will be a lumpy mess.... Ok... So... You killed it... I would have advised waiting till late May/early June to do that.. but it's done... Sod it! May as well do it right now to take advantage of the remaining summer/fall before frost hits and it goes dormant.... Just for 1 data point... My builder set out TIF 419 sod in NOVEMBER last year... It never even greened up till Spring this year.... But.. Green up it did and it grew out just fine.... and this was 1 cold winter. On Manure.... Summertime cow manure isn't a good thing unless you want a yard full of old fashioned Common Bermuda and Crabgrass and weeds.... Down here in the south in the Summertime -- they feed cows Bermuda hay and Red Crabgrass hay because of problems with Fescue Toxicosis.... so you get tons of Bermuda and Crabgrass seed in that hay.... Unfortunately, it's not a new and improved "Yard" Bermuda.. but the old fashioned "Common" unimproved cow pasture Bermuda.... Pretty stalky and doesn't really fill in to make a dense, lush turf.... It's good if you want to run some cows, though... Thanks John...See MoreColor suggestions needed. Front Door.

Comments (0)We need to remove brick under bay window because it’s falling off, but the rest is ok. We’d like to replace it with something else and paint the red brick to match whatever material we use, possibly charcoal to bring out the dark in roof. Thinking either vinyl stacked stone siding, vertical siding or vinyl shake siding. Also should we do the whole window wall or just under window. I’d love to keep garage door & front door red but give it a fresh coat....See Moreteacats
