Specifications
After planting care instructions | After sowing professional soccer pitch grass seed, it's vital to begin with careful soil compaction using a roller to ensure good seed-to-soil contact for optimal germination. Implement a consistent watering regimen to maintain soil moisture without over-saturating, which could displace or rot the seeds. As the grass starts to grow, reduce watering frequency to encourage stronger and deeper root development. Keep traffic off the pitch during the early growth stages to protect tender seedlings. Mowing should commence when the grass reaches a suitable height above its intended final cut height, using a higher initial mower setting and gradually reducing it to help the turf establish a dense, durable cover. This meticulous care ensures the pitch can withstand the rigorous demands of professional soccer games. |

Environmental information | For a professional Football pitch in the UK, the grass seed mix usually involves a blend of durable and fast-recovering grasses such as perennial ryegrass, which is renowned for its ability to withstand the UK's cool, damp climate. This mix offers notable environmental benefits, primarily enhanced water management. The robust root systems of grasses like perennial ryegrass are excellent for absorbing rainwater, which is crucial in the UK where heavy rainfall is common. This natural absorption helps to prevent runoff and soil erosion, protecting water quality by filtering out pollutants before they can enter waterways. |
Instructions for storage | To properly store grass seed and maintain its viability, keep it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Use an airtight container to protect the seeds from moisture and pests. Properly stored grass seed can remain viable for several years, but it’s best to use it within one to two years of purchase for optimal germination rates. Regularly check the storage conditions to ensure the environment remains stable, adjusting as necessary to avoid any deterioration of the seed quality. |
