Our knowledgeable staff here at Garden-Ville are available to answer many of the questions you might have about gardens, landscaping, and trees. Many problems with plants, however, cannot be responsibly diagnosed other than in person. We're located in central Texas and may not be familiar with the details of gardening in very different climate or soil zones. One of the guiding principles of organic growing is adapting methods to the particularites of local soil and climate. With that in mind we'll do our best to answer your question, but if we can't we'll be happy to help you find the appropriate resources or professionals in your area.

we recently purchased our house and when the bermuda sod was placed the water had not been turned on, so the lawn had not been watered. I finally got the lawn to turn green but now i have spaces in areas of the lawn where it was not installed properly. When do i fill these spaces in and what do i use?

The Bermuda will send out runners and fill the empty areas, so if you don't mind waiting a season or two the problem will take care of itself. It will do this faster if you maintain a healthy lawn, which is best done by fertilizing with our 7-2-2 lawn fertilizer and top dressing with a half inch of compost. This can be ordered from any Garden-Ville store if you live in the central Texas area. Right now is the best time to apply both of these. If you prefer to fill in these areas you can either seed it or buy replacement squares of sod. If possible it would be adviseable to find out exactly what kind of Bermuda was used so that you can use the same. Either seeding or sodding should be done in the spring.
