Water as needed: Most lawns need regular watering
during the summer to keep them green. On average,
provide about 1 inch of water per week.
FALL
Overseed with annual ryegrass: Bermuda grass goes
dormant and turns brown in the winter months, so you can
overseed it with annual ryegrass. The ryegrass grows and
stays green during the cooler months, then dies out once
it gets hot -- just as your Bermudagrass starts turning
green again.
Prevent winter weeds: Stop pesky winter weeds just like
you did summer species: Use a pre-emergence herbicide
from mid-October to mid-November.
Finish up mowing: Keep mowing your lawn as it slows
down during the fall season. Don't let it get too long as it
goes dormant.
