Don't worry I bought 1 bag of Greenshocker and I love it. You would think that 3-5 days is a lie and it isn't. I really works very fast. I just bought 4 bags today for my soccer field that I'm going to build in my backyard can't wait. It is a little expensive but it is very high quality and it works amazing.

Do you recommend Dimension to fix my nutsedge problem or should I just apply the granular pre-emergent in the late fall and again in the spring?

Fascinating observation in terms of dog pee spots. I have bermuda in the front, and a large tree kept a portion of it very weak due to shade. I trimmed the tree ALOT and now it gets good sun. Well I let my German Shepherd pee in the weak spots so she doesn't ruin the pretty bermuda. I am noticing thick, dark green patches in this weak area. Any ideas on why that is? Nitrogen in her heavy protein diet? Acidity? idk

Hi, I have a lot of weeds which I sprayed many times but not going away and it seems I have these since no pre-emergent was done past few years. If I put down pre-emergent now I will most likely have many bold spots next season. When should I seed these areas? ( assuming I am putting down pre-emergent again in March) also is it okay to do 2 to 3 applications of pre-emergenet since I have so many weeds/crab grass? ( 2 to 3 weeks apart)

Doc I have a terrible Moss problem and it’s not because of shade. What should I do? The Moss causes my dirt to turn black and become yucky looking. Sometimes you can peel it. I have used the aerator tool (pole). I need to find out how to send my dirt to the extension program.

Another fabulous video Doc! As you mention in the video about seeding and pre-emergent. My question is due to the harsh weather this summer my lawn took a real beating. Dry conditions, weeds & crabgrass. I just did a good power raking to my lawn and I usually re-seed in the fall and apply my pre-emergent and fertilizers starting in spring. Should I still follow this process or what would you recommend? Thank you sir!

My lawn ( tif Tuf Bermuda) has been great all summer in NC (zone 8). We had a lot of rain in July. I fertilized as recommended by SuperSod the first week of August. The things really went south. My lawn developed a fungus And, since the temps were now blistering, I think I got lawn burn at the same time. My lawn is limping back after fungicide and PFG complete. I’ve never had either of these problems before. Thinking about not fertilizing when the weather is mid to high 90s. Does this make sense? Could lots of rain and fertilizer cause fungus in Bermuda?

In our back yard we want to build a soccer field but it is totally flat so water piles up and it killed all the grass so we are going to dig and place drains and slope our backyard at a 1 degree. We were thinking filling it with dirt and move it up about 1 inch up then let the grass grow then once the grass grows move it another 1 inch up until we measure a 1 degree slope. Do you think we should move 1 inch up slowly or can we just go all in and throw 6 inches of dirt in the middle for our 1 degree slope? Please help

I think I killed my new Bermuda sod! I applied pre-emerge on established sod that is upslope from 20,000sf of new sod. You probably already guessed…the new sod (down 4 weeks) is dying. And I applied the pre-emerge after a good bit of rain and right before another hard rain! Unfortunately I had not viewed this video yet on rain timing! Will the new sod recover or am I looking at starting over?

Hey Doc., New girl here. I live in central NC and have preexisting Bermuda grass. About 4 weeks ago I did my preemergent and PGF Balanced 10-10-10 fertilizer. I watered as recommended and then went out of town. Last week when I returned home, I see that my grass looks like a leopard with brown and green squiggly lines all over. I assume it is from the spreader. Should I just wait for the green patches to go dormant? Or have I done something wrong?
