Research
Fields:
|
This field shows the placement of seed packets
that are planted in a 3' x 4' plot. Up to 3600 packets
of seeds are planted in a one acre test mold. Testing is
done and mature grass is evaluated for turf quality, disease,
establishment, winter color, spring green up and insect
damage. |
|
|
Soil to seed contact. Each seed packet
sample is hand raked |
|
|
More mature turf plots - 1 year old. You
can see the individual plots of this field. Some are
doing well, some are not. |
|
|
This turf grass trial is important because this
determines our selection of turf grass seed or blend that we
will use for seeding of your lawn. |
|
|
No other lawn care service goes to this extent
of research to determine the grass seed that they will use.
most companies simply buy the seed off of the shelf. |
