Product Information

Penn Cross Bentgrass is recommended for use with golf courses (fairways, tees, and greens) and Winter overseeding of Bermudagrass Greens.

Plant the seed to make good seed-to soil-contact, and keep seedlings moist until well-rooted. Germination will take place in 7 - 15 days, depending on soil temperatures, and the first mowing may be expected within 30 days, or when the plants have sufficiently rooted. Mow at a 3/4 in. height of cut or lower until turf is established. Limited use of the area can be expected in six weeks.

PennCross Bentgrass performs best on sandy soils, and tolerates clay soils with adequate drainage. Bentgrasses do not perform well in wet areas; however, PennCross can tolerate saturated soil conditions for short periods of time. It performs best in soils with a pH of 5.5 to 8. It has a moderate nitrogen requirement with 1 - 2 lbs. of actual N per 1,000 sq. ft. per year, adequate in most situations. Optimum golf green mowing height is 3/16 - 5/16 in. but can be adjusted higher or lower depending upon maintenance practices and intended use.

For new turf applications, use 1 - 2 lbs. / 1000 sq. ft., and for overseeding of existing turf, use 1/2 - 1 lb. / 1000 sq. ft.
