20kg Grass Seed Mix for Sports Turf Renovation
This mixture is billed as the UK's number 1 sports turf renovation mixture. Made from the highest-rated Perennial Ryegrass cultivars, it produces a dense sward with exceptional wear tolerance that recovers quickly under heavy use.
Being 100% Perennial Ryegrass, it germinates and establishes rapidly, and the sward is ready to mow within 3-5 weeks. Proven at many of Europe's leading stadia, it gives a camera-friendly, disease-resistant surface that holds an attractive colour through both summer and winter.

From bare soil to a playing surface
Sowing
- Get the surface ready before sowing: clear away stones and weeds, check that drainage is adequate, and leave the ground level, firm and moist.
- Spread the seed evenly at the recommended sowing rate, to a depth of roughly 10mm.
- Keep the surface moist for a minimum of 2 - 3 weeks.
- Take the first cut once the grass has reached 5 - 6cm in height and tillering has begun.
Overseeding
- Prepare the existing sward by clearing excess thatch and cutting back on irrigation and fertiliser beforehand.
- Apply at the recommended overseeding rate.
- For the best results, sow with a disc seeder or a studded seed roller.
