Problems with my Grass
 
I am having a problem getting my grass on my hill in front of my house to grow. I've tried everything. I've put up stones on the hill and even threw out grass seed. But the rain water just keeps on washing down the hill. It washes away the seeds and doesn't stay long enough to make the grass grow. What am I supposed to do to get it to grow?

Hmmm...
Maybe you ought to try covering the hill with plastic before it rains. But before that, scatter some seeds.

What kind of grass do you have? Blue? Bermuda?

There are some covers you can buy, it looks almost like faux grass; you roll it out over your newly planted grass seeds and it keeps them in place, yet allows water and sun to get to them. You just peel it away after they've rooted and started to grow.

I can't tell you a name for it. I just know they had it all along the main road here after they planted grass post-construction (Texas has to worry about seeds blowing away).

There are 2 natural solutions.

You can either cover crop by planting a lot of tall plants first to protect the grass.

Or you can Terrace the hill, which is making it look like a series of steps instead of slopes. I don't know how to do that but maybe if you see a proffesional it should work.

Texas Science FTW.

Maybe you should try getting new sod for your hill. Maybe the soil's too loose to begin with.
Or maybe get some sheets of grass!
