20kg Renovation Grass Seed
This is a 100% perennial ryegrass seed mixture with excellent sward density and wear tolerance. Its cultivars establish quickly and give good colour throughout the year, making it suitable for new builds and for renovating top-performance winter sports pitches.
Top-rated Alathea and Gildara perennial ryegrasses provide exceptional sward density and wear tolerance, while the Fabian and Tetragame tetraploid ryegrasses mean the mixture establishes rapidly with improved colour, drought tolerance, nitrogen efficiency and outstanding disease resistance.

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.
