Description

Barenbrug Sport SOS Grass Seed 20 kg

Barenbrug Sport SOS Grass Seed gives fast germination to repair worn or damaged surfaces in the coldest months.

☑ Football ☑ Rugby ☑ Racing & Racecourses ☑ Renovation & Repair ☑ Education Environments

  • Purpose-bred varieties, designed for emergency repair during winter months 
  • Fast germination, establishment and growth
  • Overseeding and patching blend of ryegrass species that germinate and grow vigorously at very low temperatures

Usage

  • Designed for emergency mid-season turf repair, aiming for the fastest possible germination, establishment and growth in cool temperatures.

Features & Benefits 

  • Barolympic provides a longer-term solution with good performance characteristics. Barolympic is a particularly wear tolerant variety but it has an additional trait that makes it a perfect fit for this mixture.
  • In repeat testing, Barolympic consistently outperforms other ryegrasses for low temperature germination.
  • Barenbrug research shows the advantages of using a hard-wearing diploid perennial ryegrass, rather than a tetraploid alternative, as a partner to annual ryegrasses for winter grass seed mixtures.
  • In recent trials - overseeded in January at a soil temperature of 6.2°C - SOS was shown to establish and restore a sward faster than a perennial ryegrass, recovering from 20% to more than 60% within a month (see graph below).
