Product Details


Please note: This pelleting is not COR-compliant for certified organic growers.

Animals that forage for grubs think nothing of destroying well-manicured lawn spaces in search of this important food source. We have developed our own Grub Resistant Lawn Blend as an organic solution to this. It combines Tall Fescue (Turf Type) with pelleted Micro-Clover seeds. While both of these ground covers will grow in to provide a tough, resilient lawn, neither of them form the thatch that beetles look for when they lay their eggs.

This blend is meant for use with new, bare topsoil with no turf present, not for over-seeding existing lawns. Seeding over existing thatch is rarely successful. Keep the newly seeded area well watered as the seedlings take root. Once established, this lawn will require regular maintenance, but it will stay greener for longer in the summer, and it will stand up to foot (and pet) traffic in areas of full sun to partial shade. Clover goes dormant over winter, and may appear to be dead, so the fescue in this blend will keep lawns looking healthy and vibrant. Hardy to Zone 4.

Composed of 95% Tall Fescue, 5% Pelleted Micro-Clover.

NOTE: This product makes no guarantee to eliminate or kill existing grubs. Instead, it is intended to be used as part of an ongoing strategy to resist beetle infestations.

Seed rates are included on packaging.

Sow Rate: 3.6kg (8 lb) per 1000 square feet

All About Grub Resistant Lawn Blend

Season & Zone

Season & Zone
Exposure: Full sun to partial shade.

Zone: This blend is hardy to Zone 4.

Timing

Timing
Sow in the period two weeks before, to eight weeks after, the last frost date. Or, in areas with mild winters, sow in early autumn, approximately eight weeks before the first frost date. 

Starting

Starting
Spread the seed on bare soil, with no turf present, at a rate of 3.6kg (8 lb) per 1000 square feet. Seeding over existing thatch is rarely successful. Because lawn spaces tend to be large, we recommend erring on the side of caution. It’s a good idea to withhold 15-20% of seeds for filling in any bald areas later. All new plantings should be kept damp until the plants are established.

This blend of Micro-clover and Tall Fescue seeds takes a two-pronged approach at defeating the chafer beetle. This blend is meant for use with new, bare topsoil, and not for over-seeding existing lawns. Keep the newly seeded area well-watered as the seedlings take root. Once established, this lawn will require regular maintenance, but it will stay greener for longer in the summer, and it will stand up to foot (and pet) traffic in areas of full sun to partial shade. Clover may go dormant over winter, and may appear to die back, so the fescue in this blend will keep lawns looking healthy and vibrant. This blend contains 95% Tall Fescue and 5% Micro-clover.
