I have received a few questions regarding the type of grasses we use to over seed our tees roughs and driving range. ParTee 2 is one of the most common blends used to over seed.
The blend consists of four different varieties each with different growing habits. Reading the label:
- PARTEE II PERENNIAL BLEND- Is the name brand giving for this blend.
- L158-10-697-SP- Lot number. Each lot of grass seed is uniquely numbered. This number appears on all documents so that it can be traced back to its origin.
- PURITY The percentage by weight of grass seed that is in the bag.
- GERM- Germination. The percentage of pure grass seed that will germinate in a controlled lab.
- ORIGIN- State in which the grass seed was grown.
- CROP- The percentage by weight of grass seed that is in the bag.
- INERT- The percentage by weight of material that will not grow.
- Weed-The percentage by weight of weed seeds in this lot.
- Test date- Actual month and year this lot of grass seed was tested for germination.
