Bermuda Winterizing / Scalping?
Todd In Texas – posted 07 November 2003 14:34
Forgive me if these questions are over-asked but I am new to this forum. (I also posted this topic on “Grass Types” without seeing this Maint forum existed.
I live in the Dallas Texas area and have a healthy bermuda grass lawn. (Greenest on the whole street!)
1) Should I add a “Winterizer” fertilizer to the lawn soon?
2) Is there anything else I need to do to the lawn before winter comes?
3) Should I scalp it in the spring and if so when and how short?
Thank you so much for all your help.

Todd, it is to late to overseed in your area you would not see any benefits by overseeding this late in the season. By the time the grass got established it would be to hot for it to grow. If you must I would overseed with a drawf fescue early spring. Nice color, good deep roots a little tougher than rye not as slick stays green all year.
