True, bermuda needs 80 degree weather to grow.
In the summer when I traveled back home to New York I intentionally treated the lawn to let it go dormant for that 2 week period so mowing wasn't an issue and then upon my return to Memphis added various fertilizer etc and it greened up quickly
Neighbors would literally buy truckload filled with sand and have it spread across their lawns and they flourished, Admittedly never heard of Centipede
