Germinal Amenity and top UK greenkeepers believe that proactive seeding through seasonal overseeding can produce golf greens that thrive without needing fungicides.
Join Germinal grass experts Richard Brown, Paul Moreton, and Sandy Pentecost for a webinar discussion exploring the use of leading varieties of bentgrass and ryegrass to produce exceptional playing surfaces.
Cold-seeding is the practice of applying new seed to an established sward in the late autumn or early spring when soil temperatures are below those required for immediate germination.
This section concerns domestic lawns specifically, landscape architect or landscape contractors looking for detail of sowing grass seed over larger commercial areas should refer to our section, specification for the seeding operation.
Grass plants require ease of access to hydrogen, oxygen and carbon. This is facilitated by good soil structure with a high proportion of macro pores which allow adequate gas exchange and movement of soil and water which are essential for root respiration and photosynthesis.
Granular fertilisers can be spread by hand or by using pedestrian or tractor mounted spreaders. The important thing is to make sure the fertiliser is spread uniformly and at the correct rate.
