Can dry St. Augustine grass come back?

• <div><p>If the grass is dead, you cannot bring it back to life. However, you can grow new grass in its place or try the methods mentioned above to revive the grass if it isn’t entirely dead. You can expect St. Augustine grass to come back after moderate droughts, but it will suffer significant nutrient loss after an extended period of drought.</p></div>

When is the best time of year to fix lawn depressions?

• <div><p>It’s best to fix lawn depressions <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/spring-lawn-care-and-landscaping-tips.htm">during late spring</a>. You want to wait until after your last frost date and when the yard is not too wet. This also allows ample time for new grass growth once you reseed. </p></div>

Does fescue grass come back every year?

• <div><p>Yes! Fescue grass is a perennial that naturally regrows every spring. That’s why we recommend <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/plant-grass-spring.htm">planting this grass variety in the spring</a> to jump into the ideal growing and regrowing schedule. Keep in mind that fescue grasses thrive in cooler and transitional areas, so some species do best in moderate climates below 90 and above 50 degrees Fahrenheit. </p></div>

Q: Can grass seeds be stored in garages?

• <div><p>Unfortunately, garages are one of the worst places to store grass seeds, despite their proximity to yards. Garages are hot and humid, two environmental traits that are detrimental to grass seeds. Grass seed has the best chance of survival in a dry space with temperatures ranging from 30 to 60 degrees Fahrenheit. </p><p>With that in mind, the best place to store seeds is in a sealed container in the refrigerator or in the coolest part of your home. Also, limit your seeds&rsquo; access to sunlight for the best germination results down the line. </p></div>

Q: Can you hydroseed over existing or old grass?

• <div><p>While hydroseeding is designed for bare soil, it is possible to apply it over an existing lawn with certain adjustments. For the new seed to be successful, it needs good seed-to-soil contact to germinate and take root. Without proper preparation, most of the new seed will fail to establish and will die. To hydroseed over existing grass, first mow the lawn as low as possible, then loosen and clear any exposed soil. It is also recommended to use a finer mulch mixture in the hydroseed spray, which helps the seeds penetrate the existing turf and reach the soil without suffocating the established grass.</p></div>
