my buddy has a gated section on the side of his house that is all st augustine. he didnt water it after about a month and its been 2 months since it rained here. (excluding a 5 minute shower today.) so yeah its all dead. it was only 4 months old. anyways i live in a subtropical climate (central Fl) and was wondering will the st aug come bak or is it finished? how do i know? if i pull on it and it still has roots do you think it has a chance? is that a good way of knowing rather or not its completely dead? he has no irrigation at all so i told him dont do st augustine but he didnt care lol. ok so does anyone think i should try to bring it back? if so, how? mild fert after a few days of water?
so i say to him "if youre not going to put in sprinklers then get bahia." but he says oh itll look like **** and i want my yard to look good and i say then get irrigation! lol and back n forth we go like an old couple lol..
so im wondering if i seed bahia are there any tips for it? is there a better option for my particular climate? would it better to kill what grass/weeds he has out front now and start from scratch? i think it would be the best thing but it is alot more work vs. just throwing a bunch of seeds out there lol.
so please by all means ill take all opinions, facts, comments, on either one of my questions. whatever you got im listening.
thank a bunch!-
