I just want to say that canada green is great grass seed. When our son passed away 14 years ago I tried every thing on the lot but the only thing that worked was canada green. They guarantee it will be growing in 10 days and it did. We only planted it the once and we still have a great looking lot. IP: Logged |

does anyone know the EARLIEST i can overseed my fescue lawn. I use a lawncare company and they like everyone else is AGAINST a spring seeding. they say the new grass wont be developed enough by summer yada yada..... i believe them... but i really think that IF DONE EARLY ENOUGH i can get SOME grass to come up and last until the FALL when I'll aerate and overseed again..... my question is HOW SOON can I put this seed down.. It is Jan 31st... what about MID-FEB 2010 after a good cross core aeration... that should be enough time ( 1st day of spring is March 20,2010 ) ... I am in Atlanta, GA 30314 zip code.... IP: Logged |

I got the canada green grass 2 weeks ago and I'm glad i did. I had beautiful grass in about 8 days and it looks great. I'd recommend it to anyone looking to get a nice looking lawn fast. I got it here if anyone is looking to buy it. Well worth the $15. Hope this helped IP: Logged |

As a construction worker for over 35 years I can lend a few comments here. First, a good healthy green plush lawn requires GOOD soil! Builders are notorious for stripping the top soil prior to selling lots. They then want to sell you back for a very hefty price what rightfully was yours to begin with. So if you are buying a piece of land you may want to verify through soil testing that the top soil has not been stripped from the parcel. Secondly, since the terrorist have used ampho for their agenda, it is no longer available in the USA to the general public. I used to use this on my farm and the results were incredible. The fertilizers today in my opinion are lacking. Third, you need to plant the type of seed consistant with your geographic location. St Augustine and Behia are two common Florida grasseshowever, others may grow as well. I see a lot of Kentucky Bluegrass on the shelves at local nurseries. The rye grasses are more commonly found in the northern areas of the US. Hyroseed is another method that does really well in the north but I'm not familiar with it's use here in Florida. I see the construction companies using a lot of "turf" squares. No one can tell you how to get your lawn like a golf course without having soil testing! You need to know what is there in nutrients and minerals and what is lacking! If something is lacking you will need to add it to the soil. Don't let anyone tell you it can't be grown because the soil is sand!!! I have seen some pretty plush lawns and landscaping done over my 35 years in the construction industry in sandy soil you would think nothing would grow! So in my opinion the first step is testing the soil-which is not drastically expensive. Then I would add the nutrients required to neutralize the soil and use a grass seed know to prevail in that geographic area. Good maintainence, fertilization, weeding, and watering should give the desired results. IP: Logged |

I live in England and have sown Canada green Grass Seed. It took a little longer than 14 days but it has produced a tough green lawn. I got mine on the internet at http://www.boydsdirect.co.uk/acatalog/canada_green-grass-seed.html IP: Logged |
