[QUOTE="MikeC, post: 449421, member: 1604"] There's much more to management than just spraying Bahia to keep it out of Bermuda. Keeping the PH correct, fertilizing properly, and proper timing of cutting will supress Bahia. Root developement and a thick, thick sod is key. Burning at the right time and fast growth, then feeding the roots with Potash makes Bermuda nearly impermeable. I know of Hybrid Bermuda hayfields that have been cut annually for over 10 years with no spraying whatsoever. That said. Bahia is for those that have no management procedures. I should know, I have plenty of Bahia and deplore it. :lol: [/QUOTE]
