I haven't had any problems with disease or with the drought in the area, although the Kentucky Blue Grass is a heat resistant variety. Thanks for the information you provided.

I did a few areas of a Midnight KBG monostand starting fall of 2023. I can confirm pretty much everything you've stated as accurate as of this spring (2024). I have some powdery mildew, and am having some trouble areas with shade which are letting weeds creep due to lack of filling in. Despite all its flaws, it has quite a bit of redeeming qualities, but I think ultimately it needs to be paired with something that is shade tolerant, disease resistant, and perhaps longer roots like a fescue to make it less maintenance. If you have any suggestions for pairing it with a similar look, let me know!

[@growingwithgreg9321]

Great video George. I currently have common KBG in my salad bar of a lawn. I plan on over seeding with a mix/blend this fall to introduce better cultivars of KBG. We'll see how it goes. From what I've read/watched/listened to, there is a big difference in KBG cultivars from one to the other almost as big as species of grass. The type I am over seeding with is a blend of compact types (I believe America and "Aggressive"; MVS 365ss) so my common should come up in early spring with my PRG and fine fescue while the compacts will take longer but look great in the Summer vs the common type.

[@PrincessCutLawnCare]

Thanks Greg! Thanks for sharing! Haven’t heard of the aggressive and America, gonna have to look into those. I’ve been hearing about the MVS a lot lately and I know the bears use it in soldier field... sounds like a solid seed! Good luck w your project!

I live probably half-way between you and Jason. I did a very heavy de-thatch and overseeded 17,000 sq. feet of Midnight last fall, killing any tall fescue (Kentucky 31?) with Roundup as I went (there was a lot). This spring, the lawn looks great, but I've got pouty KGB in large obvious sections where all the tall fescue once was -- it's green, and I think it will fill in, but it clearly doesn't match the surrounding lawn. At the start of this month, I core-aerated and did another overseeding with Midnight. The plan is to do at least one more overseeding this fall with the hope of establishing Midnight as the dominant grass, using Roundup in the fall whenever I find any invading grass. If things won't blend together after a few years, I'll start overseeding rye grass and just give up on the project -- or sell the house. It's always good to have a Plan B and Plan C. :) Really enjoying your channel. It's nice to have local content.

With the advancements in TTTF... I'm starting to question if KBG is really that good for residential lawns now a days, unless you REALLY need to cut low. I know fescue won't ever have the exact same repair ability, but the LS technology is pretty cool and there's several that are becoming very disease resistant and having thinner blades. Read a few data sheets, forget which variety but sounded like it could be mowed to 1.5" - 2". I feel like there's so many lawn youtubers who have slowly all been going to TTTF, at least for their backyards where maybe they don't want to cut very low.

One of my favorite channels. You do a great job with your content... kudos. Fairly new to lawn care. I have a couple overseeds of TTTF under my belt but I'm ready to kill off part of my lawn for a KBG stand. Can't decide between a mix or monostand. Specifically, SS1100 or Mazama. I'm in South Central PA, so it might require some maintenance but that's ok... it's fun. You have any regrets going with a monostand vs a mix?

[@PrincessCutLawnCare]

Try thanks Dan, much appreciated. If I could go back I would go with the ss mix. It contains the 2 darkest midnight cultivars with some mazama sprinkled in which will be the kicker that will give you some disease resistance and some shad tolerance. The ss mix is only a blend of 3 cultivars not like these other mixes that are like the 10+ different types of grass. In the end you won’t be able to tell the difference between the ss mix and a monostand, go with their mix 👍

@@PrincessCutLawnCare Yeah, I was wondering if I would even be able to tell the difference. I saw pics of a few monostands of Mazama and it looked so dark; a look I would love to achieve.
