A new drone video shows the state of the Edgar Street pitch after being battered by weeks of heavy rain.
Several home games have had to be rescheduled after the surface failed inspections due to waterlogging.
Drainage problems only add to the problems, coming to the end of its life and being damaged during floodlight installation during the hot and dry summer.
The video, shared by Your Herefordshire, shows a bird's eye view of Edgar Street and the plastic sheeting covering some areas of the pitch along the Len Weston Stand.
Those areas appear to have very little grass on them, but the majority of the pitch appears to be in good condition.
Hereford have only played nine Enterprise National League North games at home so far this season, and now face 23 fixtures in the 11 weeks until the end of the season.
Not only are pitch problems plaguing Edgar Street and hard-working and dedicated groundsman Ben Bowen, but manager Paul Caddis needs to spearhead improvements to drag the Bulls out of the relegation zone.
After Tuesday night's results, bottom club Leamington reduced the gap between themselves and Hereford in 23rd with the Bulls currently eight points from safety.
They do, however, have up to eight games in hand on the sides above them.
The BBC has covered the club's pitch problems, including this interview with general manager Jamie Griffiths.
