A-G Sod Farms Blue Ryegrass
A combination of improved Kentucky Bluegrass and perennial ryegrass suited to the West. This blend provides a year-round dark green color, fine texture and a lushness and appeal unequaled by other grasses. The natural rhizome structure of bluegrass will fill in damaged areas.
MAINTENANCE GUIDE:
WATERING For the first 20 days, water as needed to keep the topsoil moist. After 20 days, water three or more times a week during warm weather. In cooler weather, water once or twice a week. Sandy soil requires more frequent watering than clay soil. Inland areas require more water than coastal areas. Special attention should be paid to slopes and mounds where runoff occurs. More frequent, shorter watering may be necessary.
FERTILIZATION Fertilize in six to eight week intervals during warm weather, depending on your lawn’s color. Light green is an indication that your lawn needs fertilizer. Use an all-purpose fertilizer and follow label directions.
MOWING Mow seven days after installation. Mow to a height of 1 1/4 to 2 inches. Bluerye should be mowed at least once a week. Never mow more than one third of the blade at one time; it may injure the plant.
DISEASES Bluerye is fairly resistant to common disease problems. The appearance of brown spots may be a result of a watering problem. If brown spots remain after adjusting your watering routine, a disease may be present. Consult your local garden center as soon as possible.
WEEDS AND INSECTS After your new sod has been established at least four weeks, you may begin pesticide application for insect control, if necessary. Because pest and weed conditions vary from area to area, it is best to follow the recommendations of your local garden center or the extension specialist for your area.
