Optimum Planting Date:
March to May (can be planted later or fall-planted with adequate moisture)
Planting Methods:
This
is a very light and “fluffy” mix, and will not flow easily through a
conventional seed drill or broadcast seeder. Best results are obtained by
dispersing the seed by hand over a well-prepared seed bed, then rolling or
pressing the seed into the top 1/4 inch of soil.
Care:
Mowing—Allow the seedheads to turn brown and dry before mowing, in order to obtain the maximum
reseeding potential.
Grazing—Allow the grass to grow un-grazed for at least one year. Monitor grazing closely, as these plants are very susceptible to being quickly over-grazed.
