This seed will match our most current varieties of sod in production. Seed can be used to patch small areas in existing sod or seeding a large area next to sod. This seed takes 21 days to germinate and will be very slow to fill in. It will require some extra attention to maintain but exhibits the same deep green color and disease resistance that Red Hen sod does.
   Seeding Rate
   •  New lawns: 4 lbs. per 1,000 feet2
   •  Established lawns: 2 lbs. per 1,000 feet2

Our Red Hen Fescue sod, which is primarily Turf-Type Tall Fescue with a small percentage of Kentucky Bluegrass, is grown for its superior density, dark color, and fine leaf texture. The fescue in this mix provides increased spreading ability, deep rooting, and drought tolerance.
   Seeding Rate
   •  New lawns: 8 lbs. per 1,000 feet2
   •  Established lawns: 4 lbs. per 1,000 feet2

Good all-purpose mix of fine-bladed grasses providing a nice appearance at a reasonable cost. Bluegrass provides a lasting beauty and durability, while the turf-type ryegrasses establish quickly and help control troublesome weeds.
   Seeding Rate
   •  New lawns: 6 lbs. per 1,000 feet2
   •  Established lawns: 2-3 lbs. per 1,000 feet2

Designed for low sunlight areas and requires only moderate maintenance. Early spring or fall seedings are best when foliage cover is minimal. Fertilization and water requirements are low and also does well on sandy soils.
   Seeding Rate
   •  New lawns: 4-6 lbs. per 1,000 feet2
   •  Established lawns: 3-4 lbs. per 1,000 feet2

Outstanding mixture of selected varieties designed for difficult areas of heavy shade. Wears better than normal shady mixtures and is more aggressive. 
   Seeding Rate
   •  New lawns: 4-6 lbs. per 1,000 feet2
   •  Established lawns: 3-4 lbs. per 1,000 feet2

Superb under low, managed conditions with unmatched shade tolerance.
   Seeding Rate
   •  New lawns: 4-6 lbs. per 1,000 feet2
   •  Established lawns: 3-4 lbs. per 1,000 feet2
