    Does Roundup get old or can I use last summer's spray?

      No, Roundup doesn’t go bad. It is basically just a high powered salt water.

    Kevin…….are you going to offer top soil to local residents? I bought some from you this spring, and need a couple more scoops. My yard is such that it can't be delivered unless it'ts in a pick-up truck. Thanks

      Yes, It will be few weeks on the bulk products, but by the fall, I will be set back up for local deliveries! Thanks for your commitment to us.

    What should be done during the fall to Bermuda lawns?

      Honestly… nothing. You don't want to fertilize because it is getting ready to go dormant and you could damage it by fertilizing now. If you want green for the winter, you can overseed with an annual Rye just to have winter color. If you want to kill weeds, you can do that now. Otherwise, Just sit tight.

      Mike, Thanks for the confidence in my work. I unfortunately do not travel out of my area to do work and do not have an affiliate in your area. I can however give advice via email pictures!! My email is kevin@thepigpin.com. Send some pics with descriptions of what you are looking to do and I will help you out.

    Kevin, are you at your new "digs" yet? If so, where are you located?

      We are set up on a farm towards Gladeville. It is not a retail facility. I can sell stuff to you over the phone and bring it to you for free. Call Erin at the store # 615-444-8733 and she can either take care of you, or get you to me. Thanks for asking.

      You can legitimately cut them as far back as you desire and they will come right back.
