Thanks, Rusty.

Thought it was probably too late, but worth
a shot :-)

I'm making an acre of perfectly flat area for the
grandkids to play on. It is irrigated & has/will be
fertilized to the hilt. I just sowed 100# of annual
rye - so it's looking good for the winter. LOL - got
an electric fence around it - makes the cows drool :-)

QUESTION:
If I leave it uncut, that is, do not mow it again this year -
will the Bermuda grass "seed-out"?

My thinking is that if I let it make seed, then the seed will
sprout next Spring & I will not have to go buy additional
Bermuda grass seed next Spring.

It may be too late to "seed-out" but it could. Once established,
though, it propagates by runners and rhizomes. So you would not need
to add seeds next spring.

Bermuda grass is a heavy feeder and likes a lot of nitrogen. So I
would be more concerned with fertilizing it than over-seeding it, once
it is established.
