Re-seeding lawn care


It's pretty common occurrence of grass seed varieties on the same farm. This brings advantages and disadvantages to those whose content is not our purpose to discuss today. However it is interesting to note one of its most visible consequences, which I value - in this case - as a disadvantage.
When you end the warm season, it is common that large areas of lawn, some sectors are beginning to turn yellow. When they are planted some spring-summer varieties such as Cynodon dactylon and Pennisetum clandestinum, they necessarily fall in resting stage fall and winter.
During that time, vegetated plants not only view its root system but the last portion contains vegetative buds that give rise to spring re growth of the plant. The inevitable consequence is that during the autumn and winter, they wear yellow and lose their resistance to the use or trampling.
Precisely at that moment it becomes necessary to call autumn reseeding in addition to usual management practices for turf roof.
