Make sure you cut your lawn often and keep it low. Bermuda needs to be cut very low during this growth stage. We want the Bermuda grass to move sideways and fill in areas as it spreads. Doc puts down the lawn fertilizer and also does a treatment to raise the lawn phosphorus levels. The soil test results showed it was low. Then the Bermuda lawn is cut to 5/9 inch with the reel mower.

I am reseeding half my lawn with Bermuda grass. Do I need to cover the seed with PetMoss?
Thank you
I’ve been enjoying and learning a ton from all of your content. I was wondering how and if the Bermuda program could be applied to Zoysia as well and what specific guidance you have for that type of lawn. I’m in Alabama.
Just bought a McLane you suggested. I cant get the setting below 7/8″ and Dolphin indicated thats about as low as it goes. Can you do a video showing how to adjust the Mclane GR-25 down to the 0.5″ level?
