You’re not likely to get a lot of responses on this thread now, since it is nearly December. El Kay hasn’t been on the site since shortly after posting his last comment here.

You’d be in a better position to answer that question. It really depends on how your system is set up.

You’ve either got a water pressure issue or you’ve got a leak in your system. If you’re on a well, I’d suspect that’s where your problem is. If you initially have pressure, but then you don’t, that’s probably the issue. I’d suggest using the smallest nozzle in each of your heads. But you just might ...

Best bet is to research NTEP for best cultivars for disease resistance. If you’re starting new, that’s the most important thing you can do. Also, if disease resistance is your primary concern, plant a KBG blend, not a monostand. I live my backyard monostand of Bewitched. But every year it shows an i...

Nah. He wasn’t a regular. Most people ask a question, hopefully get an answer, and move on. His only activity was on this thread.

No. They could be in the same family. But some types/cultivars are bred for different purposes.

Are all dogs the same?

I irrigate. Other than a few dog urine burns, my lawn has never looked better.

Goods Feed Mill in East Earl, Lancaster County, PA sells it for about $14 for a 50 pound bag. I have not been there this year. So the price may need updating.

It’s an Amish run place, so bring cash. (No credit cards or checks)

Yep. I can almost guarantee that you don’t have much thatch growing a northern Mix lawn.

Thatch is generally a concern in KBG lawns (and with warm-season grasses like Zoysia)

All those ratios are easily available, as you note on the product labels. I’d suggest heading to your local pharmacy and buying a cheap pair of $5 over the counter reading glasses.

I’d not use or trust a list generated by someone other than the product manufacturer. Typos happen.

Keep it watered. It will probably come back ok.

If you are nervous, you could overseed the area too.

With the parameters you’ve set, (no watering or maintenance), there are very few options that will look good and survive those conditions. Maybe an unimproved tall fescue, like Ky-31? That’s a wide-bladed grass that looks to many like a weed. You could plug zoysia. But it would take several years to...

As soon as I finish my breakfast I am headed outside to work on my reno. With luck I will get the tenacity down, seed spread and compost top dressing down before the end of the day. Tomorrow will be roller and makeshift fence to keep the dog off it. Good luck If it were my project, I’d apply the Te...

You’ll need to adjust the speed you push the spreader. Also the prill-size of the urea matters.

Summing up, there’s no single answer that will apply to your specific situation

If your existing lawn goes dormant in the heat of summer, an overseed isn’t going to give you greatly better results. Your existing rye grass will still be there and will bounce back in the fall. That grass will go dormant again next summer. Overseeing KBG into a Mostly rye grass lawn Is not likely ...

KenandNancy is correct. This is one of the few cases where I’d use a growth regulator. A few years ago, I did the following. 1. Gradually (over a couple of weeks) lower the cut to as low as I could get it. (1st or second notch on the mower) 2. Water and let it recover for a week. 3. Keep the cut at ...

Usually the label is your best source of truth on these things.

Growth regulators in lawns can also lead to fungal problems with pathogens that normally wouldn’t be a problem. Things like rust and dollarspot which a property fed lawn can simply outgrow can become more serious When under regulation. There are benefits as related to darker color. But On the balanc...

Did you ask your seed vendor? That’s where I’d start. NTEP scores aren’t useful in your case because you can’t compare scores across different grass types.

Here’s one decent read from the google search above. It claims 99 percent of us have PFAS in our blood.
