Where In the world are you?

Do you have drought conditions?

Is it hot and dry where you are?

No one can answer your questions without answers to these questions.

Bermuda is so rarely sick that we tend to dismiss the concept until you can demonstrate lesions on the grass blades or rotten roots. Brown bermuda is common for several reasons. The most prevalent reason for brown bermuda is watering too frequently. Deep (1 inch) and infrequent (once a week) is the mantra for summertime watering.

The one brown spot looks like a place where a dog has peed. Drop a handful of table sugar on it. The rest looks like overwatering.

What is your watering schedule? How often and for how long?

When were the last two times you fertilized and what did you use?

Have you used any herbicides, fungicides, insecticides this season? If so, what?

Where do you live? Central Texas is larger than many states. Have you been in the same drought the rest of us are in?

Bermuda that is too dry turns blue gray, not

Sick. Sorry, not sure what is causing my last word to post after....

This is not a perfect test, but you can try grabbing a handful of the brown grass and pulling on it. If it is dormant, the blades will tend to stay attached. If it comes off, especially if it breaks off very easily, there may be a disease problem.

Brown may be sick, but again, sick bermuda is so rare that we almost never talk about it. Completely and thoroughly brown across the entire yard with no green at all is usually caused by being underwatered for months. You don't have that.

Dormant happens in the winter and it can happen in the summer after months with no water at all. What I was saying is that it looks like it is getting watered too often.

If we're going to count up unanswered questions, you didn't answer any of mine. If I didn't answer your question, it's because I can't give you a good answer without more information.

so it looks like I will be received some bad advice...before i was actually watering just right, and now I'm underwatering.

We don't know what information you were given nor do we know what has changed...because you refuse to answer the questions posed a few days ago. "Over watering" is a flimsy term. It means different things to different people. I water my lawn for 8 hours. Some would say that is over watering, but that's only 1 inch from my sprinkler.

It still looks like you are watering lightly every day and that's wrong. There was a writer from El Paso earlier this summer with a similar appearing lawn. She changed to deep and infrequent watering and solved her problem.

Here is a picture demonstrating the difference between light daily watering and deep and infrequent watering. This is Kentucky bluegrass from SE PA, but the appearance is similar with properly selected grasses in the south.

My oscillator sprinkler on full sweep takes 8 hours to fill the can. Every sprinkler system is different, so you have to measure your own.

All filled up is how I do it. If there is a significant difference from one can to another, then you should adjust the sprinklers so they spray more evenly. I've seen the grass dry out right around the sprinkler head because the sprinkler throws water far away, but the adjacent sprinkler heads do not overlap properly.

When I ask people how long they water, what I really want to ask is how many inches they apply, but that concept is too esoteric to ask someone. Usually people will say that they water 3-4 times per week, and that's the wrong answer from the git-go. My friend in Phoenix waters about 3/4-inch every Thursday and Monday when the temps get above 115. I'm sure someone from "Central Texas" could beat that with temps only in the high 90s. I live across the street from our local water police, so I have to water only on Tuesdays, but if I miss a week and go to 2 weeks, my lawn does not die. In fact I have a shady part under a live oak tree that has not been watered in 3 weeks with temps in the high 90s every day. It does not look like a fresh salad, but it is clearly not that stressed. It's all green and not showing any brown.
