[QUOTE="Jogeephus, post: 326414, member: 4362"] You'll have a longer growing season with bahia. It will green up quicker and die back later but once the nights are hot enough to sleep with your sheets down the Bermudas will outgrow it and out produce it. Bahia doesn't require the fertilizer hybrid bermuda does but it doesn't produce the grass either. Both have good points as well as bad - really depends on what you are looking for and the type management you employ. Without looking at the field it is hard to say what to do for establishment. But you need to treat it as a crop. If you go with bahia, be careful not to put too much N on ground at establishment for this could create a weed problem and choke out the seedlings. P & K are important though. (No more than 30# of N.) [/QUOTE]
