Rinnovaprato - Bottos 1 kg
€11,50
Rinnovaprato Bottos seeds are suitable for regenerating light green lawns. Rinnovaprato is ideal for regenerating all the Poa and light fescue mixtures typical of sports turf and is also highly recommended for regenerating recreational areas and parks in full sun.
Being composed entirely of fescues, its shade tolerance is moderate and therefore any overseeding in such environments does not provide long-lasting results over time. Rinnovaprato is excellent for autumn overseeding in macrothermic turf (warm-season grasses) without any problems with vegetative recovery at the end of spring.
Usage suggestions
| Sowing and Dosage | Germination can take from 3 to 10 days in direct correlation with soil temperatures. Note that the required soil temperature is above 7°C. The dosage is 30-35 g/m² (but also 80-100 g/m² for technical overseeding of sports areas or macrothermic turf), the maximum doses are recommended in case of high temperatures or imperfect preparation of the seedbed. It is always recommended to use topsoil for lawns. |
| Mowing | Perform the first cut when the grass reaches 8-10 cm and during annual management in the shade do not go below 6 cm. |
| Irrigation | During sowing and overseeding, keep the soil constantly moist until complete germination. In the summer period, irrigate with 7 mm of water every day. If possible, schedule in the months of July and August a thermal irrigation of 1-2 mm every day around 11:00 (cooling) |
| Nutrition | Phosphate fertilization at sowing and then plan 4-6 annual fertilizations with at least 30 units of Nitrogen m²/year to reach 40 units of Nitrogen m²/year in case of sports turf. In maintenance, avoid phosphorus-based fertilizers to avoid the possible proliferation of annual Poa. |
