Korean Grass – 0.5 Kg Seeds

Caring for Korean Grass

• It has maximum growth during the growing season when temperatures are between about 25 and 35 degrees Celsius.
• Regardless of planting location, experiences a wintertime dormancy, turning brown each fall.
• It grows best in full sunlight, though it may also succeed in areas of the yard with light shade.
• Thinning out branches that overhang the grass encourages healthy growth.
• Adequate site preparation is key to encouraging Korean Grass establishment.
• All rocks, debris and undesirable vegetation must be cleared. If the soil drains poorly or has low fertility, an amendment should be worked several inches into the soil.
• Korean grass is planted using seeds, sprigs, plugs or sod.
• It is the only Korean Grass species that can be established by seed, though the plants slow growth rate and susceptibility to nematodes make establishment by other means more attractive.
• Sprigs consist of a section of stem or rhizome that has at least two nodes; they are planted about 2 inches apart in rows spaced 6 inches apart.
• More space is allowed between plugs, which consist of small sections of sod.
• The soil must remain moist for establishment.
• If planted early in the season, a clear polyethylene tarp covering the sprigs, plugs or seeds will retain moisture and encourage growth.
