Update on what to look for when buying lawn seed--steer clear of annual ryegrass!
Просмотров 2,8 тыс.Год назад
This is a short video that shows how bad annual ryegrass can look when mixed with perennial ryegrass (light green and large vs dark green and small). I also introduce transitional ryegrasses which are still technically annual ryegrasses, but they have much better turf grass quality characteristics.

    What you are calling annual rye in the video looks like cereal rye to me. When I purchase annual rye and perennial rye from my big box stores I can hardly tell the difference. But when I plant cereal rye in my garden plot, it is thicker and taller, just like what you are showing here. Wondering why I have a different experience with the product than what you are showing here.

    Going to disagree with you some in that TTTF will work very well in all but the very coldest climates. Also, recognize that if the grass if buried in snow and is in fact in the soil, it gets nowhere near the actual cold air temperatures.

    Do you know anything about bunch grasses? I had some Tufted Hairgrass (Deschampsia caespitosa) in containers that I had just hardened off for a couple of weeks (they were started indoors), I'm in Zone 8 and they're supposedly hardy in my Zone. Our winter is mostly mild 50s-40s-upper 30s but we had freak cold snap. The plants had been outside for a while and when I saw the forecast I tried just moving them to a sheltered area in the yard (should have planted them). Temps got down to the teens and the potting mix got partially frozen. They seem to have died now, post -thaw. Do you think they're dead for good? I'm thinking yes 😢 because it's in the 50s again now and they're brown.
