20kg Seed Mix for Race Courses and Polo Grounds

Overview

This grass seed mixture germinates and establishes quickly, making it well suited to new race courses, polo grounds and other grounds, as well as end-of-season renovation. Its tetraploid perennial ryegrass roots deeply and offers excellent disease resistance, diploid perennial ryegrasses add wear tolerance, and smooth stalked meadow grass strengthens the roots, improves the look of the turf and helps it recover from wear.

How to use

From bare soil to a playing surface

Sowing

Before sowing, prepare the ground so that stones and weeds have been cleared, drainage is adequate, the surface is level and firm, and the soil is moist.
Spread the seed evenly at the recommended sowing rate, to a depth of roughly 10 mm.
Keep the surface moist for a minimum of 2 - 3 weeks.
Carry out the first cut once the grass reaches 5 - 6 cm in height and has begun tillering.

Overseeding

Get the existing turf ready by taking out excess thatch and cutting back on irrigation and fertiliser.
Apply the seed at the recommended overseeding rate.
For the best results, use a disc seeder or a studded seed roller.
