[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 2747767, member: 15054"] I never had luck with planting grass seed. Except when I worked with my uncle doing Hydromulch installing yards. I took that method which was 10-20-10 mixed with cellulose and grass seed and water sprayed on a yard and never let it get dry. So I did the mulch it in really well, no cellulose though, 6X more seed and 3X more fertilizer than recommended . Seemed to work. That tree in the yard was purchased 5 years ago and it was 4" diameter and 10-12 foot tall I did not put any weed killer on my lawn in all those years as I wanted the tree to get a good grip and so far it worked but my yard suffered from it. I would pull weeds by hand every year and that worked well ..That Oak tree got huge and now the Bermuda is not optimum. And it was looking like thinning bald guy with weeds. This is why I did what I did. Now my neighbors are wanting to till up their yards. HA! I see some weeds coming up and will spot spray them and see if I can kill them without killing the grass. I figure once this thickens up it will choke them out.. I will be over seeding it this year once it takes a good hold. [/QUOTE]
