Well look on the brightside, He won’t have to cut it.

By the way the drought has killed all of my own, my lawn is brown too and crackles when I walk on it.

I cut my whole yard once this year so far in early June. Other than that I just cut some small areas of sprinkler overspray from the garden.

Have you ever considered watering your lawn? If you install a sprinkler system all you have to do is program it and it does all the work.

But your lawn is only dormant, When watered it will come back to life..His won’t.

That happens along about August all across the south unless you have a sprinkler system. It’s the “wet dead grass is just darker brown, don’t worry about it until fall and enjoy not needing to mow” stage.

Came early this year. Crabgrass survives it though, verdant and green as ever, always thought a hybrid variety that stayed green through the winter would be a great thing. There’s not much that kills the stuff, almost in kudzu territory.
