— St. Augustine.
St. Augustine is not grown from seed. There is no legitimate bag of St. Augustine seed that can be spread into your yard to create a new lawn. It is installed as sod — in pieces — or sometimes sprigged commercially. That’s it.
If your St. Augustine is thin or struggling, the fix is not a magic bag. It’s correcting soil, drainage, fungus, insects, shade, or compaction. If large areas are gone, they are repaired with matching sod pieces.
