Ours is south facing too. What is it with the crabgrass this year? We've never had a problem with it before. We always have trouble with that viney stuff - is it some kind of morning glory? With white flowers?
The viney stuff is bind weed.
I even did the pre-emergent to prevent crab grass and still have it. Glad I'm not the only one.
If I watered the grass enough to hit the brown spots, I'd have a swamp in other places and the water bill would be sky high. I've really had it so next spring the majority of it, except for a small "island" in the middle, will be out.
Yes, bindweed. That's it. I would love to redo our whole front yard - I don't see it happening for at least another year though - most likely 2. Too many other things on the list. We do have that one area between the two driveways which will need to be done in some fashion before that.
What is with all of you weeding? If I weeded, I wouldn't have anything green left in my yard. At least now (from afar) it looks like I have grass.
btw... I have always wondered who it was that got to go around and point at things and decide "flower", "weed", "grass", "weed". Who was so special that we now have to follow those rules?

when we moved here, the house had been vacant for months. We couldn't tell what was a weed and what was supposed to be there. To this day we have, what I think is a weed, thriving in our front yard. I even transplanted some to another area.

Yay!!! I am not the only one. Weeds grow so great. Why kill them off? I am embracing them as the only thing I won't kill with my black thumb. I am horrible with plants. I got bushes that were supposed to be almost impossible to kill. They were dead in under a week. I swear I can kill an artificial plant.
