Argentine Bahia grass seed is grown, harvested and processed by Hancock Farm & Seed Co., Inc.   Argentine Bahiagrass Mix - Fall & Winter Mix (October 1 - February 28th) 75% Argentine Bahiagrass (Coated) 25% Gulf Annual Ryegrass   The F&W mix is shipped October 1 through February 28th, unless otherwise requested. Our Fall & Winter Argentine seed mixture contains 75% Coated Argentine Bahiagrass, 25% Annual Ryegrass. The Annual Rye grass is added to assist in fast ground coverage, retaining soil moisture and preventing soil and seed erosion. They will germinate in 5 to 7 days with adequate soil moisture and grow for approximately 65 days. The permanent Argentine Bahiagrass will establish beneath the protective Ryegrass coverage. As nighttime spring temperatures increase to 65 to 70 degrees the Annual Rye grass will begin to die out. As the Annual Rye grass begins to die out the Argentine Bahiagrass will begin to emerge through the established Annual Rye grasses root structure. Argentine Bahiagrass seed requires 2 - 3 weeks of constant 65 to 70 degree nighttime temperatures combined with soil moisture to stimulate germination. It is very important to water and mow the newly seeded area. This prevents the Annual Rye grass from overcrowding or shading out the young Argentine Bahiagrass seedlings as they emerge. To insure a successful seeding experience refer closely to the planting guide provided with your order.
