Default How can I recycle my turf?

If you want to reuse the dirt just leave the turf upside down and the
grass will wilt and die. Leave it long enough and it will turn into a
layer of compost. At any rate the dirt will be reusable without the
grass coming up again if done properly.

Have you ever tried that with bermuda grass, George?

Best regards,

Nope, AFAIK a nuclear strike is the only solution for bermuda grass. I'm
not even sure that would work. Back in the day I was told by a nuke
instructor that cockroaches and bermuda grass would inherit the earth.
We have great success with bermuda by pouring gasoline on it and
torching it. Burned up the !@#$% asphalt driveway with the gas though.
