FAQ

Q. What’s the best way to ensure a healthy growth rate for my sports field?

A. To maintain a healthy sports field, start with selecting the right grass seed. Regular mowing at the correct height is vital to keep the turf in top condition, and moderating the use of high-nitrogen fertilisers helps control growth rates. Adequate, but not excessive, watering is essential to avoid problems such as waterlogging.

Q. Why is sports pitch grass seed ideal for athletic fields?

A. This type of grass seed is specially developed for athletic fields, providing a durable turf capable of enduring heavy usage and sports activities. Its resilience, combined with an appealing look, makes it ideal for fields where playability and aesthetics are equally important.

Q. Can I mix sports pitch grass seed with other grass types?

A. Certainly, you can blend sports pitch grass seed with other varieties to create a versatile turf. Such a mix can improve the overall quality of your field, bringing together the necessary toughness for sports activity and other qualities like disease resistance.

Q. What ground preparation is needed before planting?

A. Effective groundwork for a sports field involves clearing debris, loosening the soil for root growth, and adding the right nutrients. This preparation fosters an environment conducive to growing a strong and healthy turf.

Q. What are the watering needs for a sports field?

A. Initially, consistent watering is critical for seed germination. Once established, the watering regime should be adjusted according to weather and soil conditions to maintain a healthy field without the risk of overwatering.

Q. How adaptable is sports field grass seed to different environments?

A. Generally, sports field grass seed is quite adaptable to various conditions. However, for the best results, choose a seed variety that aligns well with your local climate and soil.

Q. What’s the optimal time to sow?

The ideal sowing times are:

  • Spring (Late March to May): This is a favourable time for sowing, thanks to the warmer soil and regular rainfall aiding germination and growth. Sow after the risk of frost is over and the soil temperature is above 8-10°C (46-50°F).
  • Autumn (Late August to September): The retained warmth from summer and adequate rainfall make this a suitable period for sowing. It’s important to sow early enough for establishment before winter.
