[QUOTE="1982vett, post: 996934, member: 7795"] Amen....Brotha..... :clap: :clap: Makes my eyeballs roll back into my skull when I hear "the hybrids revert back to" spiel. I would expect when you plant a "hybrid mix" that contains 25 to 50% common bermuda, you are most likely going to have only common bermuda left in a few years....HOWEVER....what I'm seeing with the Texas Tuff I planted in 2004 is the 33.3% Giant Bermuda portion of the mix is more drought tolerant in my blackland soil than the Common and Majestic portion and that has kept those in check. Biggest "pitfall" I see with seeded varieties is adequate moisture between germination and viable plant but that similarly compares to keeping a sprig viable between harvest and planting...still have about the same moisture issue after that. :2cents: [/QUOTE]
