Tifway 419 bermudagrass has been around for a long time and is a standard that everything gets compared to. New varieties of hybrid bermuda grass come out and they all have their strengths and weaknesses so it is useful to be able to compare them all back to the same tifway 419 instead of comparing to each other. Tahoma 31 is an awesome grass. Pretty plain and simple. I hope you enjoy the video.

Love this Vid! I have Tifway 419 in the front yard and after watching y’all’s videos decided to go with Tahoma 31 for a backyard reno. Just got 8,000 sq ft put down 5 days ago. My landscaper wanted to do tifway and I responded, “You should watch the Lawn Tools!”For real though, I talked to two sod farms that had celebration, tifway, and tahoma - each one independently raved about tahoma and said it was the best.

There’s hardly any tahoma 31 content online! I’ve been scouring for it. Great video! I’d love to see a bunch of close up video to really get an idea for what it’s like. Sounds like it grows slower vertically but faster laterally. I’m obsessed with this cultivar. Tiftuf is so similar to Tifway.

So as a fellow Razorback fan, I too remember when the Hogs got their new grass. The wear tolerance is why a lot more sports fields are going to Tahoma 31 turf. The turf is in my opinion is the best. Walking the Hogs turf I can see the difference in the turf. Keep up the great content Jordan. Also would love to see your area. Hog fan from Fort Sill, OK. Woo Pig Sooie, Razorbacks!!

@The Lawn Tools , I have Tahoma 31 from Riverview Sod. Due to lawn needing leveling and a giant zero turn mower, I have been mowing at 3+” all season. The best looking part of my lawn is super thick and has never had a single seed head. Parts of the lawn, presumably with the most NPK deficiency has not grown quite as thick and has frequently had seed heads. So, there is at least some experience around with high Tahoma. I also agree that it seems to have less brown stalk.

While I dont have Tahoma 31 with my 419. I do have Latitude 36 in the front, with 419 in the back. I've noticed the 419 grows nearly 3x as fast as the Latitude and isnt as dense as the Latitude. I think we're seeing what new technology and new varieties are able to do for us.

I've seen many of your videos, love the videos and content... so today I need to buy a pallet of bermuda to patch a section in my front yard after adding extra soil to get above the rocks the builder left behind. I'd seen an article about the Tahoma 31, living in Tulsa it's available just south of me. Wondering if putting the Tahoma 31 in the middle of an Astro bermuda lawn would be a mistake? My hope would be the Tahoma would spread into the Astro and take over.

Here in Arizona i grew up in the valley that developed Princess 77 and have 1000sqft on my faraway yard. Its 1/2 tall and super tight i cut it every 2 days and the 1/3 rule doesn’t apply lol it grows like gang busters! My new putting green is TifGrand and i got that in Sod , i mow it at 3/8 right now being its only 6months old. Its a finer blade than P77 and its way more shade tolerant but its was sensitive to cutting. The color on the TifGrand is darker than the P77. But the P77 is far more durable. U can take a divot with a wedge and its grown back in a week !

whats the best way to get tifway 419 to spread? i laid some sod down in late march of this year and its just not doing what I want it to do lol. so here's my story. live in San Antonio, TX. laid it late march. looked great up until late June and started to realize I kept it to high and mainly kept it at 3inches because it looked good at that height, well I listen to some people online how bermuda does better cut shorter so I went for it. started in early July cutting twice a week and getting as low as 1inch in a matter of 3 weeks. now its brown, I just sprayed some nitrogen (6-0-0) and Iron .75-0-0 but its only been a couple days and yes I'm noticing some green pop out just not as much as Id like. what do you suggest? my biggest worry is I'm either putting down to much water or possibly not enough in certain areas with my waterhose sprinkler setup. (4 gear drive rainbird sprinklers in 4 corners of yard) to overlap at certain times in the morning. usually, it will be mon, wed, Friday and sunday at 30 min per 2 sprinklers. any help is appreciated, this is for anyone to helpout lol.

Which herbicide do you use or prefer?! Can you try to go to that sod farm?! Id love to see a tour of that! Ive got Yukon seed, it is VERY slow at germinating but once it gets going, if you fertilize it, it starts to take off! I also mightve burned it a little as i have a TON of weeds, probably of every type on every type of label lol
