## Questions & Answers

**Q: Are the seeds ceritifed sod qaulity?**
A: No Matt, unfortunately the seeds are not. Seed Super Store in Buffalo New York has certified Midnight, but it is quite expensive.

**Q: Is this a fine leaf and is it self spredding?**
A: This is a very fine leaf.  Not a lot of support to walk on, but on the flip side, if you are mulching, a fine blade will break down and return to the soil quicker.  KBG spreads via rhizomes which are underground roots designed for spreading the plant laterally.  This root shoots out an inch or so and shoots up a new daughter plant, then spreads a little more and repeats.  Each seed planted should do this.  One seed will not spread but so far, so if you come back down the road with a thatch rake or mechanical tool that will break this root, the daughter plant should then become a mother plant and start spreading again.  Once established for a few months, you can put down a pre-emergent herbicide like Prodiamine or something else which will prevent 99% of the annual weeds that pop up in lawns, which is the majority of weeds you have in lawns.  The other weeds you can hand pull, including the root, or get a small envelope moistener with a sponge on one end and fill it with Glyphosate and apply directly to the perineal plant you need to kill.  Once dead, this weed will decompose and leave a dead spot.  Since the pre-emergent will prevent new plants, the rhizomes should spread into this area and fill in the void over time.  Just avoid this seed like the plague if you have pets.  I put this seed down as a test and it is gorgeous and I love it, but my 500 sq. ft. test in a 10,000 sq. ft. back yard failed miserably due to pet urine.  with 10,000 sq. ft. of lawn, it was not like they only urinated in that 500 sq. ft. patch, and there are so many dead spots it looks like black patches on a Dalmatian.  If you don't have pets or plan on getting pets, then you're fine.  Otherwise, choose a different type of seed that is highly tolerant of pet urine.  I live in the transition zone and found Zoysia grass to work very well for my situation.

**Q: Does this have good tread wear if there is a lot of traffic on it...say from a very active dog?**
A: Yes, but you have try to keep the dog off the grass until it gets established. When I first planted the grass it came up great but you have to make sure your soil is right (fertilized) and get well established. Once it's established you will love it!

**Q: Can anyone tell me the seed to area ratio? I've never planted grass before and have no idea how much I'd need for my yard less than an acre.**
A: Our lawn is 1200 sq ft. We established by hand weeding including undesirable grass, successive aerations & topdressings & overseeding. We used 10# the first year, 5# the next few years in 2 applications, and now a 5# bag lasts about 3 years. We continue to hand weed & overseed to maintain but it's not much at all. A neglected lawn is a headache, a small welltended lawn is beautiful. Lots and lots and lots of lime for this grass. Lots of deep water & cool springs and autumns. Think White Cliffs of Dover. This grass isn't a good choice for much of the USA, check your zone and rainfall before committing.
