Disaster to Getting There!
So far so good!! Recently downsized our home and yard. Unfortunately, the new construction home yard was neglected for months and weeds covered the entire area. I was determined to try Sunday and get our Bermuda lawn back from it's disappointing start. Fortunately, with a lot of weed spraying and following MY PLAN, the Bermuda is starting to grow and take over.

Easy system to use. I'm early in the process, but it seems to be working. Grass is getting fuller and greener. I'm looking forward to seeing the results by the end of summer.

Convenient, natural, beautiful grass
Our lawn is so green and lush, and we love having a more natural option to put on it. We do have to spread a granular pre-emergent for weed control, but living in the South, that is just a necessity--our weeds would take over if we didn't. We love Sunday and tell everyone how easy it is!
