    Gee, Idk. More prone to disease? Pests as well?

    Your neighbors will hate you more once it starts taking over their lawns.

    I agree with you, that is what I have and its great for two acres!

    Unrelated to your question, but that lawn looks beautiful!

    Because when I till up my yard, mix in fertilizer, spend a couple hundred on seed, it doesn’t look anything like this

  5. Unrelated, but how big is your yard and what kind of mower do you use? Grass looks great

    The maintenance required to get a Bermuda lawn looking like yours is ten fold that of a Fescue lawn. If you can turn it into your full time job, more power to you but the rest of us clock in somewhere other than home.

    It’s cause propaganda by big seed and weed. They can’t sell you all the fixes for your lawn if it just grows good and perfect.

    Supposed to be because the sodded Bermuda has finer blades and can be cut lower. Common Bermuda has coarser blades and shouldn’t be cut below 1.5 inches.

    All that said, the random bits of wild Bermuda I have in my yard grow way the hell more aggressive and thicker than the hybrid Bermuda. I cut at 1.5 inches anyway cause of the bumps in the yard. I’d be perfectly fine if it took over.
