New Seeding Method 1- Princess 77 Bermuda Grass With Mulch
Prepare your lawn for seeding by tilling then smoothing and raking the lawn to
the point of having a smooth firm seedbed. Plant 5 lbs. per 1,000 square feet.
The seed and mulch are blended to give the correct seeding rate for each of the
two components. Lightly rake the seedbed to cover the seed and mulch no deeper
than 1/8” deep. Mulch the seeded area lightly with wheat straw or pine straw.
Water daily for 14 days keeping the seedbed moist at all times. The Bermuda
plants will emerge, and over a period of one growing season should form a sod.
On poor soils or in unfavorable growing conditions, it may take two growing
seasons to completely form a sod.
New Seeding Method 2 - Princess 77 Bermuda Grass Seed With Mulch
Spray the present grass on the lawn with a non-selective herbicide labeled for
lawn use. Wait approximately 7 days to make certain all grass is killed. On
spots not completely dead, re-spray with herbicide. Wait approximately 7 days
after the final spraying and plant Pennington’s Princess 77 Bermudagrass Seed &
Mulch mixture at the rate of 5 lbs. per 1,000 square feet, making certain the
seed and mulch are spread evenly across the area. Aerate the area thoroughly
using a checkerboard type pattern. Using a standard lawn mower, mow the dead
grass close to the ground allowing the clippings to remain on the ground as a
mulch covering the seed. Water daily for 14 days keeping the seedbed moist at
all times.
Care & Maintenance Of Princess 77 Bermuda Grass
Fertilize in fall and early spring with a balanced fertilizer. Use lime when pH
is low. Water twice weekly when established.
