Can anyone give me some tips on how to grow some grass? My front yard is every bit of at least an acre and I would like some grass to grow instead of this sandy dirt that gets tracked in my house all the time! The kids need some grass to play in! Kris has put out some K-31 grass seed but it is slow at coming up!

pull a soil sample and see what the dirt needs then sow it in a good grass and cover it with hay keep it watered and in a few weeks you should have grass growing.

One pound of centipede grass and 50lbs of gulf rye grass should get it done. Water it good for the first three weeks. When it gets five inches tall start mowing it. Works all the time for me. Good luck

I used Bahaya(spelling) when I did my land, it worked great.

Thanks, when Kris gets home next weekend, I will show him this post and go from there. I noticed with all this rain, we are starting to grow some grass, it is just in spots not consecutive!
