Emerald lawn seeds create a fine textured lawn ideal for fine gardens in full sun. This is a variety not recommended in strong shade conditions. Emerald has a brilliant medium dark green color. At full maturity, it is very dense, fine and uniform. The mixture is made up of a mix of American cultivars, characterized by strong resistance to stress (diseases, thermal extremes, drought, etc.) and others of European origin resistant to trampling and with early germination.

The high presence of Poa pratensis favors a good self-regeneration capacity thanks to its numerous growths, thus reducing extraordinary maintenance during the year. Emerald is tolerant to the diseases of Mal Bianco, Filo Rosso, Dollar Spot and Microdochium nivale.

Composition:

70% Perennial ryegrass Passion/Berlioz 1/Estella

30% Poa pratense SR 2100/SR 2150

Usage Tips:

Sowing and Dosage

Germination can take from 4 to 10 days in direct correlation with soil temperatures (soil temperature required above 8°C). The dosage is 30-40 g/m2, the maximum doses are recommended in case of high temperatures and/or imperfect processing of the seedbed. We recommend using lawn soil.

Cut

Perform the first cut when the grass reaches 6-8 cm. Never remove more than 30% of the vegetation present.

Irrigation

When sowing and reseeding, keep the soil constantly moist until complete germination. On a mature lawn, in the summer period irrigate with 10 mm of water every 2 days. If possible, schedule a 1-2 mm thermal irrigation every day around 11:00 am (cooling) during the months of July and August.

Nutrition

Phosphate fertilization at sowing and then planning of 4-6 fertilizations per year with at least 30 units of nitrogen m2/year to rise up to 40 units of nitrogen m2/year in the case of sports greenery. During ordinary maintenance, limit the use of phosphorus-based fertilizers to avoid the possible proliferation of Poa Annua. Also plan 4 biostimulant treatments to increase tolerance to trampling and heat.
