I did not know TV was using ProVista. You can also keep it at a shorter height.

Our lawn guy cuts at 3-4"

Looks nice but Deans doesn't seem to be able to make mine look quite as good as in The Villages maintained grass areas.

Seems bullet proof except to chinch bugs. If you see browning along the street or driveway, need to call to treat for them as soon as possible. The dead spots fill in quickly if you limit damage.

With the amount of weed killer being used to keep TV ponds and lakes "weed" free, I guess a few thousand gallons of Round Up more per day so we can finally have weed free lawns won't really make a difference. Spray away.
Most of us won't be around to see what the real consequences are.
