Flourescence can indicate the presence of Annual Ryegrass in a Perennial Ryegrass lot. This is a natural occurance which cannot be avoided, but can be minimized. At Preferred Seed Company, Inc., our standards are to reject any lot of Turf Type Perennial Ryegrass which contains excessive amounts of Flourescence (Annual Ryegrass). It is possible to purchase seed lots which have in excess of 8% flourescence at a cheaper price. We choose to not offer these substandard seed lots.

What is a native plant? A native plant is one that existed in nature where it is currently growing. In the US that would be before the European settlement of the Americas. Example: Little Bluestem, Indian Grass, Fox Sedge, Green Bulrush What is a naturalized plant? A naturalized plant is a species not native to an area that grows, reproduces and maintains itself without interference. Example: Creeping Foxtail, Perennial Ryegrass, Timothy, Orchardgrass What is a warm season grass? Warm season grasses break dormancy later in spring and experience most of their growth during the warmer summer months. They have extensive root systems so they are very drought tolerant. They go dormant early in the fall after a freeze. Planting should occur in the late spring. Example: Big Bluestem, Side Oats Grama, Lovegrass, Deer Tongue, Switch Grass What is a cool season grass? Cool Season grasses start their growth early in the spring and continue growing as long as moisture and cooler temperatures prevail. Their growth slows, if not goes dormant, during the hot, dry months of summer. They actively begin growing again in the cool moist months of late summer and fall. Plantings should occur in spring, late summer or fall. Example: Wild Rye, Fescue, Kentucky Bluegrass, Mannagrass, Bentgrass We have Mixes & Individual Varieties for Specific Sites Upland Meadow Wet Meadow Riparian Disturbed Steep Slopes Wetland Bioremediation Woodland Wildlife Stormwater Management Choose from one of our specialized mixes or allow us to help you design a custom mix based on your purposes and variable conditions.

Enkamat is a three-dimensional nylon Turf Reinforcement Mat (TRM) made of polyamide (nylon) filaments thermally fused at their intersections to create a homogeneous matrix. Ninety-five percent of the matrix is open space, which supplements nature’s own erosion control system by reinforcing plant root systems. As the roots grow, they become entwined within the lofty and open Enkamat matrix, creating an extremely stable cover. When fully vegetated, Enkamat can double the effectiveness of natural vegetation and replace hard armor systems at a fraction of the cost. Enkamat‘s tough root-reinforcing system anchors vegetation and protects against hydraulic lift and shear forces created by high-volume discharges. It can withstand velocities greater than 20 feet per second and shear stresses of 10 pounds per square foot. Developed in 1972, it is the original TRM and has been approved by numerous state and federal agencies. We also offer the Profile GreenArmor System. Used in conjunction with Profile’s hydraulically applied erosion control and vegetation technologies, the GreenArmor System offers a more aesthetically pleasing, environmentally superior and cost-effective means of protecting high-discharge waterways and steep slopes. #7003 #7010 #7020 Width: 76˝ Width: 76˝ Width: 76˝ Length: 500’ Length: 90’ Length: 90’ Area: 3166 sq. ft.

By providing better moisture access and gas exchange in the rootzone, Revolution improves overall turf health and makes it much more resilient under all types of stresses. Keeping water moving consistently into and through the plant increases photosynthesis, leading to increased production of non-structural carbohydrates. It also boosts the efficiency of other cellular processes, keeps the leaf turgor stable for more consistent play, and maintains evapotranspiration rates to keep the turf canopy cooler. Revolution lets you gain control of the rootzone conditions so that your turf can perform to its greatest potential. Revolution is exceptionally safe on fine turf species and is backed by Aquatrols’ exclusive money-back performance guarantee. Aqueduct treats existing water management problems anywhere on the course, guaranteeing quick recovery from localized dry spots and other water-related turf stress.

As its name implies, it is a solution for many of the common problems that affect golf courses and sports turf – problems that arise from the highly intensive maintenance regimens to which turf grasses are subjected, as well as seasonal stresses like heat and drought. The Result You Want: Bigger, Better Roots The most important way PanaSeá Plus contributes to plant growth and health is through root establishment and root biomass development. This is because the health of the root system dictates the health of the plant. Knowledgeable superintendents understand that the causes of problems start long before symptoms are visible. They understand the need for aggressive agronomic intervention and they start with programmed PanaSeá Plus applications as soon as they start mowing. The outcome is significantly healthier, denser, deeper root systems. Bigger, better root systems come from programmed applications of naturally occurring cytokinins and other beneficial constituents contained in PanaSeá Plus. PanaSeá Plus not only outperforms synthetic cytokinins, but also all other biostimulants. During high stress periods when plants stop producing their own hormones, PanaSeá Plus provides necessary cytokinins to stimulate and sustain cell division in root tissue. This proactive biostimulation strategy helps to offset the negative impact on root development from shrinking internal cytokinin production. PanaSeá Plus is a proprietary blend of several liquefied sea plant extracts. It’s also the richest single source – more than twice that of its nearest competitor – of naturally occurring cytokinins.

The other fertility programs provided 3.5-4.0 lbs. of N per 1,000 sq. ft. from June to September, compared to a more appropriate seasonal amount of less than 1 lb. of N from Emerald Isle True Foliar® nutrition. Even though there was a large difference in the amount of N applied, there was no statistically significant difference in turf quality.

If overseeding, reduce seeding rate by half. 3 LOT NUMBER Number assigned when packaging the variety, mixture or blend. Needed for tracing purposes. 4 TEST DATE The date seed purity and germination were tested. Qualifies seed lot for sale in New York for 15 months. Other state seed laws may vary. 5 PURITY Percentages indicate the proportion of the seed variety or species by weight, not seed count. 6 SEED TYPE Identifies the seed species and cultivar (variety) contained in the package. 7 GERMINATION Percentages represent the amount of viable seeds that germinate under ideal conditions. This varies with the grass species. 8 ORIGIN When seed quantities account for more than 5 percent of the mixture or blend, the label must show the state or country where the seed crop was grown. This has no bearing on grass adaptation. PHONE 716-895-SEED (7333) 9 NOXIOUS WEEDS These are troublesome weeds. In most states it is illegal to sell seed that contains noxious weeds. When present, they must be individually named and the number of seeds per pound indicated. 10 OTHER CROP These are seeds from any commercially grown crop. They may be other desirable grasses which comprise less than 5% of the mixture or blend, or problem grasses such as orchard grass in a lawn mixture. 11 WEEDS It is virtually impossible to clean all weed seeds out of a seed lot. State laws regulate which plants are considered weeds. These are generally weeds which are easily controlled or mowed out. 12 INERT The chaff, dirt and miscellaneous material that manages to escape the cleaning process. 13 NET WEIGHT The total weight of the contents, exclusive of the packaging. 14 COMPANY NAME & ADDRESS Identifies the name and address of the company which packaged or is selling the seed lot. 15 SELL BY The month and year seed must be sold by.
