I just finished putting in a very large irrigation system tied into my
well. Needless to say, there's a lot of bare dirt/cloyingly sticky
when muddy. I think it's too late to replace the dead St.Augustine
this year, but I'd like something to grow over the winter. Lots of
shade in a heavily treed lot.

I thought about something like winter rye, but I don't know squat
about this subject.

Suggestions?
