Stop watering during the pout?
I have sprouted and continue to pout. My sprout started on about August 17th (Bewitched). Still pouting today (about 3 weeks worth). I have followed the comments and have not added any fertilizer. Do I want to stop the watering on that section? We are officially in an extreme drought. Haven't had any rainfall during my renovation.

Keep watering and feeding. Pouting just means that the grass is doing Things You Can't See. Mostly, it's setting up root systems, strengthening the crown, and otherwise developing. Think of it as a child who's not currently having a growth spurt.
You still have to give them water and food and let them out of the closet occasionally unless you want CPS on your butt.
Ask me how I know.

(Looks at post count, realizes you haven't yet adjusted to my completely warped sense of humor and don't know that I have no children).

Nobody ever quite "adjusts", Morph. I'm at just short of 29,000 posts and I'm still not "adjusted".
