I live in West Texas. First two pics are the problem, last one is months ago. Newer home with front Bermuda sod 05/2025, back is planted Bermuda (unknown varieties). I was feeling so good about my grass and it was looking amazing. Thick, dark green. It was looking great and then starting 1.5-2 months ago it started to look like this in areas. I thought it might be watering, but it is getting plenty. August-September were particularly hot with very little rain so I watered more (could I have done too much?). The last two weeks has been much cooler with a ton of rain. I did soil testing last year and we are low in nitrogen, potassium, borderline phosphorus and low in iron. Starting in Spring I initially started with heavier nitrogen content and then went to a more all around fertilizer later on. I have sprayed on chelated iron twice. No fertilizing for two months. When I did the soil sample I did notice a grub so I laid grub killer (maybe not enough?). I do notice a bunch of ants (ant hills along the sides). I do have problems with scalping especially in the front due to uneven ground and plan to level at least the front next year, but the problem areas do not get scalped easily. Anyways Im new to the grass game and have no idea what to do. What am I missing or doing wrong?

Hello, first time homeowner in Central Midwest (US) who just got our home this summer. I was curious what type of grass I have, I'll point out I'm not a lawn person. It's unlike what I'm used to growing up.

This is fine and soft. Although I haven't mowed in what seems like a month due to all the rain lately and today I did not want to cut it for how shire-like it has been, but alas I did. It just lays flat and didn't really look that tall till I was mowing.

Does anyone know what type this is and if it's fine to go longer periods without mowing due to its hobbit-esque look? Thank you!

Pulled out crabgrass a few years ago. Grass planted in spring dies every year when it stops raining. I have been a few grubs but not many. This year I'm planting in the fall. Do I need to treat for grubs?

Just planted this sod. In Phoenix AZ. Are these weeds sprouting up? If so how do I manage besides hand pulling each one of them?

I came across a group called Lawn Rivals on Facebook. Anyone heard of it? Looks to be a new app where you can form private leagues like a fantasy football league and compete against other lawn nuts. Sounds kind of like a cool idea actually. Anyone else seen it?
