With the weather conditions experienced this summer, turf
recovery will be on every Turf Managers mind very soon if not already. When
choosing seed varieties the origin and genetic make-up can determine how that
seed germinates and establishes itself, how it resists disease and insects, and
if it will be drought tolerant. Knowing where your seed comes from and if it is
“genetically pure” can be the difference between a lush and long lasting turf
stand and a recurring problem.
We at Atlantic Golf and Turf have always worked with
providers and breeders who maintain good seed stocks and manage their
production fields and seed processing facilities to the highest standards. Poor
management of any of these areas can affect the purity (genetics) of the seed
and can determine the outcome of your Turfgrass stand in the future.
If you have a favorite seed variety that is not available or
in low supply, we may have an alternative in the same genetic classification
that will insure the compatibility and traits you expect from your seed.
