Need guidance from Texas or Southern gardeners ...

We have Bermuda in the front yard 1/2 acre And Kentucky Blue grass/ Fescue on the back 1/2 acre..
.
Which goes down on the yard first ...The weed without the feed or the Fall fertilizer...Would you please name a product that weed and does not feed please...I have the fertilizer just can't figure out the name brand of a product that just de-weeds our yard...

Also its still gonna be 80 degrees in the afternoons for the next couple weeks...when is the temperature correct for the applications of both??

Thanks for your help.....

When my home was built, they scraped the top soil off to level the yard and I have never been able to grow grass there at all. Just wondering if there is any kind of seed I could use to make grass take hold there without adding more soil back. Most of yard is fine but this is looking bad and it's been three years like this now. I am wanting to sell soon so need to do something.

Or does it just not break down easily, regardless of its form?

We have a large mulch container we've been filling for over a year with kitchen scraps, yard clippings, ashes, etc., but the mulch has not been "cooking." Our only possible location for the container is in the shade, and our climate is mild summers and moderately cold winters. Is there anything we can do to make up for the lack of sunshine for our mulch? We haven't been able to find any commercial products at the garden stores or on-line. Thanks.

As seen in the pictures below i have a small tree "attempting" to live and grow on my front lawn.

http://s237.photobucket.com/albums/ff85/quantass/tree/

The problem is this tree has been very slow to mature and during the summer there arent very many leaves that this tree carries nor do they have a lushous green look to them (the color more resembles an autumn fall period). I strongly suspect the reason for this is that this tree is damaged at the main tree trunk area (please see the pictures).

Can someone tell me, is there a way to save my tree (when you look at these pictures) and have it grow properly? Winter is approaching again and i figure this little tike won't last another winter in this state.

Thanks

My Gerber Daisy plant is planted in a deep planter but above ground. In the NW, it's getting cold at night, and it still has flowers, and new flowers coming in. Is there anything special I need to do to protect the plant during autumn/winter months?
Thank you for all the answers!

The remaining branches look like twigs sitting on the yard (next to the house) except the branches remain rooted in the ground. Any suggestions on how to handle this?

We are building a pool and considering having the fence made of frameless glass (see link below for pictures). I am interested to hear opinions from people who perhaps already have a pool and maybe have this type of fence. Have any kids (or adults) run into the glass or hurt themselves as they have not seen it? (A bit like birds crash into windows...)

I want to start planting trees to help reverse some of the CO2 emissions we're producing. I want to start off with Oak. I have plenty of Acorns, sound ones that haven't been infested. Where can I begin planting some? There is plenty of open space so i'm not worried about that. Its fall now so is it a good time to begin? Can they be pot-planted first?
