Description
Masterline PM26 Eco Sward Grass Seed
This seed mixture combines fescues, meadow grass and clover to create a sward which is extremely drought tolerant and disease resistant. The species used in the mix reduce input costs by decreasing the requirement for applying excessive fertiliser, water and herbicides. The ecofriendly cultivar, Microclover, used within Ecosward is a naturally nitrogen fixing cultivar species and has the ability to capture large amounts of carbon within its root structure resulting in a 35% reduction in carbon production. A visually attractive, dark green sward is produced.

Sowing Guidance
- Prepare the surface before sowing ensuring that:
- Stones & weeds are removed.
- There is sufficient drainage.
- The surface is level and firm.
- The surface is moist.
- Sow the seeds evenly, using the correct sowing rate to a depth of approximately 10 mm.
- Ensure that the surface remains moist for at least 2 - 3 weeks.
- Make the first cut when the grass is 5 - 6 cm tall and tillering has started.
Overseeding Guidance
- Prepare the existing turf by removing excess thatch and limiting irrigation and fertilisation.
- Apply using the correct overseeding rate.
- For best results use a disc seeder or a studded seed roller.
