Right now, the weeds look great and what little grass there is looks dead. Scared to spray weed killer in case I burn the lawn ( have seen others ..looks horrible!) Should I seed...Plug...Sod? Was curious about Zoysia grass..</FONT></TD></TR><TR bgcolor="#f7f7f7"><TD valign=top><FONT SIZE="2" FACE="Verdana, Arial">kaokihei</FONT></TD><TD><FONT SIZE="2" FACE="Verdana, Arial">laura, Sounds just like my place, I bought it fixed the irrigation and tried to get the grass to turn green and the weeds of at least 10 different varieties over took my yard. I killed everything off with roundup at least twice. I let it dry to a crisp and dug up every weed in it. I was ready to pave the place when somebody told me about seashore paspalum. It grows well in soil that is 50% or more sand. I started with a couple of runners(stolons) and to control the weeds until it was established I bought rock salt(for water softeners) made a solution and sprayed the entire yard (grass area only, salt can kill almost anything) weeds and other varieties of grasses dehydrate real quick but the seashore paspalum lives on. now I have a lush lawn that feels real good between my toes</FONT></TD></TR></TABLE>
