Another option if you aren’t up to digging up the old sod by hand is to rent a sod-cutter. The things work great and leave a smooth bare surface of dirt. Places like Home Depot rent them by the day. I guess it depends on how big your lawn is as to what works best. I’m facing the task of redoing my front yard which used to be beautiful St. Augustine but was invaded by some weird grass which has pretty much taken over. Not sure what my plan is yet.

I had St Augustine on my front lawn and developed tarr. Eventually, bermuda took over, and after mowing every 3 to 4 days, my lawn looks like a goft field now. To me, St. augustine is more suseptible to diseases and requires more water. I do have 90% St Augustine in the back lawn that grows well except has some non dying yellow blades in the same are every year while the rest is green. I applied a fungus control because if it's iron deficiency it would be the entire lawn that is deficient and not partially.

I’m sitting here watching my newly planted hydrangeas wilting in real time and it’s not even 90ish much. (Alabama here). I’ve never had to shade anything near my house. We get shade. These hydrangeas get only 4hr of sun a day….but they were 3 gal pots and pretty big already so they aren’t established yet and I’m scrambling. Right now I’m putting my garden chairs in front of them 😂. It’s working for the most part but if they don’t get some legs soon and harden off I’m in trouble July and August. I’ll need something. Ty for the tips.

Thanks. I have almost the same problem with our St. Augustine...thinking it may be root density primarily due to two mature live oaks less than 15 feet apart. Also my simplistic fertilizing with the blue miracle grow packets in the end-hose sprayer probably didn't do much to help.

Thanks for this informative video. Regarding your tip about tree competition and yellowing I noticed that I've got areas of my lawn in the Coastal South where the St Augustine was a deeper green in late winter and then as both the St Augustine and the trees emerged from winter dormancy the new growth is coming in a little yellowish. This is also occurring in sections where I have Zoysia and Centipede (Heinze 57 lawn) The surrounding trees are all trying to flower and put out new foliage so I'm suspecting they are really competing with the grass right now for iron which also has a tendency to leach out pretty rapidly in our sandy soil. Time to put out some ironite!

wow. I yesterday put some in two buckets from my yard fro seeing your video, but I also tried the other way of just taking some(I ran out of space) , and put them in some top soil with starter fertilizer, and watered it in. I also had some runners near that area from my other grass so I spread little of that top soil near it as well. I will go water again maybe around 11(a few hours from now) to make sure they dont dry out, since I did this last evening.

Great video! Thank you. I’ve been doing this for years. Now I take my runners and pot them in 4” long by 2” cylinders (I use 2” pvc works perfectly) then when roots are well established I go out with the ole pro plugger and fill in thin areas or where weeds were previously treated.
