| I live in SC and have bermuda grass. I had a ton of fescue spots in my yard so I dug them all up today and filled the holes in sand. My yard looks like a golf course full of divots with sand in them and I am wanting to try to get grass to grow sooner rather then later. What would be the best way about getting the fastest results? Should I plant some bermuda seed in those spots? If so should I just throw it on top of the sand or get some kinda soil to put on the sand then throw seed on it? Any advice will be greatly appreciated. |

| If you mow your Bermuda often and feed it correctly it should fill in those bare spots this year as long as the holes aren't too big. What type of Bermuda do you have? How low do you cut it? What is your fertilizer schedule? Have you ever seen the "Bermuda Bible". |

| Some of the holes are fairly decently sized. I'll attach a pic at the bottom of my post. I was kind of hoping to have them fill faster then this year, why I was thinking of throwing seed on them. I'm not sure the type of Bermuda I have, I just moved into the house last Sept. I had a bad clover problem until recently so I've been cutting it on the 2nd lowest level on my mower. For fertilizer I'm just following what my local John Deere Landscaping guys told me, I just put out Lesco 12-0-6 with .1 dimension today, I put out 0-0-7 in March. I have not seen the "Bermuda Bible" Heres the pic http://img835.imageshack.us/img835/9120/imag0616ti.jpg |
