Red tipped Bermuda
JDixon – posted 19 April 2005 20:16
Spring arrived and the bermuda grass came back to life. Everything was great. It rained about every third day and the grass was growing fast. Then the rain stopped for a couple of days and the tips of the grass turned red. Also, the grass just seemed to stop growing. Maybe its my imagination, but I don’t think so. At least itÂ’s not dying (yet). But why did the tips turn red, and what can or should I do to help it out.
I am located in north Georgia, soil is pretty compact, and grass is one-year-old sod. Didn’t have a very good year (planted at inappropriate time of year)
