area

frequency and fertilizer requirements

You can also rate them on your own, by comparing the information written on the
packages, you would be in a position to know what suites you best. You can rely on this
information because the manufacturers are compelled by law to state exactly what is in the box
For example, If a seed has no cultivar name, "Variety Not Stated" must be listed. If you have
trouble understanding the information written on the back of the label, you may also consider
asking your local landscape specialists what types of grass they recommend and what seeds best
suit your specific planting area.
Other than relying on consumer grass seed ratings, you can check for ratings
from National Turf Evaluation Program (NTEP). Grass seeds that have been evaluated and rated by
NTEP are known to be specifically bred for superior green grass color,
disease and insect resistance and drought tolerance.
