Question:
Can winter ryegrass damage an existing turf's root system, specifically bermuda grasses?
Answer:
The problem with overseeding bermudagrass with rye is not so much the root system but the fact that the rye is going to compete for nutrients and moisture in the spring and the bermuda is going to suffer from this competition. Also, if we have a cool spring/early summer the rye is going to take that much longer to die out. My recommendation would be to not overseed.
