Anyone know if that bermuda seed (at lowes) looks similar to the bermuda sod they lay down in neighborhoods? Or is it more crab grass looking?

About half my backyard is that seed. It's not terrible but can't be mowed as short as bermuda sod.

Yea I just have a small area on side of house where we moved plants out of (dirt now). Was going to put sod down but it's such a pain especially with the roots in the ground. If it looks close enough i think ill just seed it

Id go with it. Just have to keep it super wet until it germinates. Honestly it may be too late ib the year to seed it now

Needs 90 days from germination date to frost is my understanding I could be wrong

Hm ok maybe ill wait until spring. I was hoping the grass would spread into the area this summer but it's not really happening

I was actually going to mention that you did , NC state is big on turf management and such. You were in the College or Natural Resources? I’m in CALS ! CALS is definitely the best college at State . @Rain Cold what college were you in while at State ?

Pams nerd. That walk from Jordan Hall to any other part of campus was miserable. The old buildings in front of NY Pizza and Mitch's smelled funny

Hey at least you could stop at burger King or sammys lol. I tried walking from our house on wade to campus after I got nailed with like 10 parking tickets. Found it was a good way to get the ladies to pick me up haha

Yeah going from Harrison to Jordan was a hike. At least I lived in Bragaw a couple of years, so that was closer to Jordan. There was no AC in dorms back then, but at least they made Bragaw coed my second year there.
 
be cool if we had a thread where we could wishcast or report fake weather. Like a wishcasting thread

You could give it a shot, the heat over the next 10 days will be ideal for germination. If you water the crap out of it until frost to entice the roots to get as deep as possible and hit it with a starter fertilizer you might be able to make it through winter. The only concerns are not enough time for the roots to store enough energy to survive winter and/or a cold snap freezing a shallow root zone (many people realized how easy this is a couple years ago).

I'm not sure how much money you want to spend but if you want to go the seed route look at Arden 15 you can get it off Amazon or from like Hancock seed, its sod/golf course quality
