Here's all you need to know about lawn care in Panama City Beach:

Best Grass Types for Panama City Beach

Lawns in the Capital of the Redneck Riviera need grass that thrives in the city's unique blend of warmth and humidity. The key lies in choosing warm-season grasses. These varieties are not only resilient to the intense sun but also adapt well to Panama City Beach's summer rains and salty coastal breezes.

• Bermudagrass: This variety thrives in the heat, requiring less water than other grass types during our scorching summers.
• St. Augustine: Thanks to its thick growth habit, this cultivar is particularly adept at crowding out weeds.
• Zoysiagrass: This turfgrass has a good tolerance for salt drift, making it ideal for properties near the Gulf.
• Bahiagrass: This cultivar is known for its deep root system, which helps in water efficiency — a plus during dry spells in Panama City Beach.

What's the Optimal Frequency for Mowing Your Lawn? During periods of heavy rain, mow once every four to five days to manage rapid growth. During dry spells, extend your mowing sessions to every 10 to 14 days to prevent stressing the grass.

Common Lawn Pests and Diseases in Panama City Beach

The sunny days and rainy spells are like a VIP pass for a variety of lawn pests and diseases. Some of the most common include:

• Chinch Bugs: These insects cause large patches of dead grass, especially in sunny areas of your lawn.
• Mole Crickets: Prevalent in sandy soils, mole crickets tunnel underground, uprooting grass and creating uneven surfaces.
• Grey Leaf Spot: This fungal disease appears as small, gray spots on grass blades.
• Dollar Spot Fungus: Identified by small, circular, sunken patches in the lawn.
