Connor’s lawn caught my attention back when COVID lockdowns began 18 months ago. It was his videos that made me go out and buy a reel mower. I’m currently going through an RPR renovation on my front lawn and yesterday I overseeded my back area with RPR to help fill in last year’s PR renovation.

[@RDAmidwest]

Good morning Pete. Thanks for the publicity on my favorite cool season turf. I hydroseeded my third acre with Midnight 28 years ago here in Minnesota and never regretted it. It has healed itself more times than I could possibly remember.

[@harvey66616]

Great info, thanks! I hope folks do watch all the way to the end, because your last point is **critical**. With watering, KBG does as well as the TTTF. But the latter is much more resilient in drought conditions. You can get away with a lot less water with the modern TTTF varieties. A useful test (not better, but different information) would be to have plots that are watered the bare minimum to keep the grass from going dormant, and plots that are watered the bare minimum to keep the grass from dying, and report on those minimum amounts of water (in inches or gallons/area, whatever). My experience with blends is that the bluegrass and rye die off much quicker in hot & dry conditions, leaving patches between the fescue that wind up having to be reseeded (there's no spreading grass left alive to fill in on its own). Some places will enjoy monsoon-like weather in the summer as the climate continues to warm and change, but for much of the US, hotter & drier summers are going to be the norm (and already are for that matter). We're already seeing water shortages, and that's only going to get worse, so trying to keep large areas of lawn with grass that require huge amounts of water to stay alive is less and less practical. Quantifying the actual water requirements not just to the extent of "well, this grass can be kept alive", but more along the lines of "this is the _least_ amount of water you will need in order to keep the lawn alive" will be critical information for people maintaining lawns (whether homeowners like me or professional lawn care folks like you). For my own part, in the Pacific Northwest: I just can't justify the amount of water it would take to keep KBG or ryegrass alive in the summers we are having now. Breaking heat records every year, it would take literally ten **thousand** gallons of water per week to keep my half-acre of lawn alive if it were KBG. With TTTF, I can do a single heavy watering before each heat wave (so far, the hot 100+ conditions only last a few days before we get back down into the 80's), and that's plenty to keep the fescue alive (though not necessary active...much of it still goes dormant), while the KBG and ryegrass that's been in the blends still die off. I've switched to overseeding with TTTF only, so over time the lawn will shift to being much more drought-tolerant, something sorely needed since as a society we've failed to protect the planet from the warming we've created.

[@aldoclausi3955]

Very nice to hear positive comments towards your competition. You're a stand up guy! I'll keep watching.

[@wketchin]

Another thing to note about KBG is its ability to look completely dead, but it's just dormant. It'll come back once the temps are right. Very resilient grass.

[@EuroYardService]

Yes, on a side note…people watering a little but not enough will create a nasty weed ridden dormant lawn. Best is to not water at all if you can’t commit to keep it green.

You should have no problems growing Kentucky Bluegrass in Upstate South Carolina, especially if you have an inground irrigation system and light shade (Bluegrass prefers full sun to light shade). If you pick the right cultivar, you will not have fungus issues. I will pick the following cultivars: Midnight, Blue Coat, or Turf Blue HGT by Barenbrug. You can order those cultivars online or if you are in the NC area you can pick them up.

I overwatered it too much in the beginning had to deal with a lot of fungus issues.

I’m in Palmdale California. They call it the high desert and we have extremely hot summers ware it’s common for it to be 110°. We don’t get a lot of humidity

[@yajton]

@@Kenzi9098 That's crazy. I overseeded with rye last fall. Pete's rye seed. It was the darkest green lawn I've ever had.. And my lawn was the best in my subdivision. So much so that people thought it was fake. I'd catch them on camera coming up and touching it in disbelief. Had many good laughs over it. I want to go the kbg route. So I don't have to overseed with rye every fall. But was a little discouraged when Pete told me it may be too hot for it through a summer out here. Then I saw your comment and thought maybe I could take a chance... I know my humidity is way higher then what you get there in Cali. But the temps through summer is about the same. Although for this August we are set to be lower then normal in temps. How often do you water it during your summer high temp months?

[@Kenzi9098]

I water @ 3am and 6am really heavy every day when the temps are 100+ and hand water any spots that look like they are checking out at the end of the day. I always try to put the grass to bed dry to avoid fungus problems

[@Striperman]

Pete, I am very impressed on how well your Blueheat has performed. I have had 100% KBG for 30 years here on Long Island. I have mowed at 3.5 inches and at 5/8 " and I have always dealt with Fungus in July and August. Our temperatures usually range from 80 to mid 90's during that time with humidity as well. I can see where KBG on the West coast like California or Utah does well even with the high temps they get but no humidity but for it to do so well in the Carolina's is amazing. Keep up the great work sir and yes Connor Ward is the one who got me started as well with the low cut :)

[@lostinmyspace4910]

In Michigan, the Greater Detroit area, and alll the towns and cities, in the suburbs, when a new home is built,everyone gets Kentucky Bluegrass sod. We have several huge sod farms and they all grow Kentucky Bluegrass, then cut, rolled up, palletized, and shipped to all the homes. The sod farms are beautiful, and that grass will be ready to be shipped in the next several weeks to months. That being said, all the homes that have KB sod also has an irrigation sprinkler system. That's huge here in Michigan. I've never seen a sod installation tthat didn't have sprinklers. If you have KB then you must keep the water flowing, and that's usually every other day for 10-12 minutes to keep it green and healthy, otherwise it will burn, scortch, and not look green, and will show signs of stress.

[@lostinmyspace4910]

In Michigan all subdivision homes have Kentucky Bluegrass sod laid. I have 4 acres of grass at my home and have a mix of all kinds of grass including weeds, but whewn cut it looks ok. A small patch of kentucky Bluegrass was sowed where I took down a large tree. That grass loks great, and is thick. I wish my whole lawn of 4 acres looks like that, but I have no sprinkler system. What can I overseed my land with to make it look better, and green, and lush? I mow with a 6 foot Landpride mowing deck pulled by a Ford 8 N tractor. THUMBS UP!!!

[@davidhineline3107]

I've put in KBG lawns but TTTF and KBG blends are what I plant for the most part. KBG loves the humidity of Northern Ohio. The problem is when it's hot and the humidity drops, you have to pound it with water. My Yard is 100% KBG that is irrigated. Right now it's sunny and pushing into the 90's with moderate humidity. I'm running 1 1/2 hrs per zone, twice a week. I've been pounding polymeric resin, humates and kelp this year. Looks killers but your stuff looks like the bomb!

LOL. We're mirror images. You're on the bottom side of the transition zone growing cool season grass, and I'm on the northern side of the transition zone growing Zenith Zoysia. I'm slightly north of Richmond, VA, and our temperatures and humidity are pretty neck & neck. I also have a 650 sq. ft. test patch of Rye and Midnight KBG. I'm renovating my soil in the back which sucks. 5.3 pH, iron less than 1/2 the minimal acceptable rate, but the Rye/KBG is still looking good and thickening up, and it was put down last fall. I have 2 dogs so I'm trying to figure out which would be better for the back yard with my 50 and 65 pound dogs. Between the two, I like the Zoysia because it doesn't clump and stick under the mower deck, not at all. I can clean my mower deck after mowing the cool season stuff in the back, then mow the front, and my deck is even cleaner after mowing my Zoysia.

Well Pet I was going to got with the TTTF but I sure do like the look of that KBG. If you move your finger over to Kansas SE from where i think you are i'm right on the same line (don't remember what that's called without looking it up. LOL) I got to make up my mind soon don't I if I want to plant this fall. hummmmmmmm LOL I should burn my front yard up really but don't know if the city would let me do that. May have to ask. They both look great, let me ask you one thing witch one would do better in a shaded spot? I have two large shad trees I don't want to lose. If you have time I know you go 500 MPH all the time and about to get into 1000 MPH time of season for you. God bless and thank you for all your help brother.

Well I just looked up the KBG and it says full sun so I think I'll go with the TTTF. and this is the first time trying this so if i blow the whole thing i won't hurt as much with cash being tight and need to be smart but not to cheep LOL

When you say very fine leaf blade is that compared to the tall fescue You’re accustomed to? But not as fine. As creeping red fescue, for example?

Hi Pete, Thank you for the great video. I may need your experience. Your yard looks beautiful I love it. I live in a Very hot climate area (Middle East ). Its gets so hot here 113f or 45c. I'm looking to grass an area for my kids to play and enjoy the green. I like the darker greener looks and a grass that soft. any recommendation? Thank you again. Oh and a lot of weeds in my area :(

I live in Northern Alabama. can I add Kentucky Blue Grass to my Bermuda yard. I would like to change it to all Kentucky Blue Grass. Any suggestions you can provide would be great

Pete...... I put Tall Fescue Sod in last September. It has done well. But keeping it at 4 to 4.5 inches is a problem. My mower just doesn't cut that well at that height........and I can't afford to go back to a Zero Turn (like I had at my old house......just don't have the money in retirement). I was thinking about over seeding the Tall Fescue with your Blue Heat mix this fall and start converting the lawn over Kentucky Blue. I would like your opinion on whether that would work out. I live in Southern New Jersey and our summers are much like yours. Ultimately, I'd like to get my cut down to about 3 inches. Thanks.
