How to Grow Grass in Alabama

Bermuda and Zoysia grasses dominate in Alabama, thriving due to the warm, humid climate.

Fall is the best time to seed in Alabama because the cooler temperatures and increased rainfall reduce heat stress and provide ideal moisture levels.

Frequent watering during the hot summer months is crucial, along with aeration in the spring to combat soil compaction caused by heavy rains.

In Alabama, the grass grows faster on the side of the hill facing the nearest barbecue joint.
