Planting Bermuda grass

Posted by BKahler on June 30, 2006 at 07:17:20 from (207.119.73.8):

Looking for suggestions on how to plant some bermuda grass. We're going to be planting roughly an acre. The ground has been destumped, limed and fertilized. The final prep before planting will be running the box blade over it to loosen it up some.

From what I've read bermuda grass should be planted something like 1/2 inch into the ground. After spreading the bermuda would running the box blade over the ground again be sufficient?

The only implement I have to work with is the box plade. Also, the spreader is a 36 inch wide unit. I'm not real sure how to set it up for spreading bermuda. I assume I want to make the openings as small as possible.

Any info would be greatly appreciated!
