Fall & Winter Mixture:
Common Bermuda Grass Seed
Gulf Annual Ryegrass
Brown Top Millet
Hancock's Fall & Winter Common Bermuda grass seed mixture contains 75% Un-Hulled and Coated Bermuda grass seed and 25% Annual Ryegrass. The Annual Ryegrass is added to assist in fast ground coverage, retaining soil moisture, and preventing soil and seed erosion. The Annual Rye will also provide an effective spring germination environment for the permanent Bermuda grass. The Annual Ryegrass will begin to die out as spring nighttime temperatures increase to 65-70 degrees. The Bermuda grass will begin to emerge through the established Annual Ryegrass root structure as the Annual Ryegrass begins to die out. Bermuda Grass seed requires 2-3 weeks of constant 65 to 70 degree nighttime temperatures, combined with soil moisture to stimulate germination. It is important to water and mow the newly seeded areas in the spring. This prevents the Annual Ryegrass from overcrowding and shading out the young Bermuda Grass seedlings as they emerge. Please refer closely to the planting guide provided with your order to insure a successful seeding and establishment experience.

It's no secret why Hancock's Bermuda Grass Seed Mix is so popular. The answer is "because it works"! Here are a few of our favorite reviews from clients who have planted Hancock's Bermuda Grass Seed Mix:
"This was my first time ordering and it was a great experience; your website is very easy to navigate and read about the seed options," writes customer Raelene P. "Quick shipping. I spread my seed yesterday and it was very easy using the directions included. Will definitely be buying from you again!"
"So far the seed germinated in about 8 days," says Willard L. "Looks like almost full germination. Grass is up and I’m watering every afternoon. Happy with purchase and will buy again from Hancock seed."

Remove all old vegetation to prepare a clean seedbed by means of a rake (lawn) or disc (pasture). Drag or rake area to loosen and level any hard or uneven spots if needed.
Broadcast seed at recommended rate. Drag, rake or roll lightly to cover the seed no more than 1/8 in. below surface. If you are overseeding an existing lawn or pasture, it is essential to mow existing grass low and incorporate seed 1/4 in. into soil for best results.
For lawns, apply 5-10 lbs. of 16-04-08 slow release fertilizer per 1000 sq. ft., four times a year (late Spring, Mid-summer, late Summer, and early Fall) for the first two years. Apply 5 lbs. per 1000 sq. ft. two times (mid-Summer, late Summer) a year after a fully established lawn has been accomplished. For pasture fertilization, Apply 250 lbs. of 16-04-08 slow release fertilizer per acre in late Spring, mid-Summer and early Fall. Animals that are grazing will damage the Bermuda grass if the pasture is not fertilized annually. The grass must be provided with adequate nutrients to compete with the animals.
Apply lawn irrigation for approximately 30 minutes every evening until soil is damp, and germination has occurred. Irrigate newly-seeded lawns every other day until the grass reaches 6 in., then water recommended 3 times a week if needed.
When choosing to start a new lawn, remove old vegetation by using a de-thatcher, power rake or tiller to kill the existing vegetation. Rake or drag the area to remove debris and dead grass for a clean area. Ensure the soil is leveled and loosened to allow the seed to have good soil contact once spread on a clean seed bed.
If you have an area with heavy weed coverage, we recommend starting fresh by killing and removing the existing vegetation. If you choose to use chemicals, herbicides or fertilizers, you must check with the product's manufacturer prior to planting new seed to ensure the proper waiting period.
When overseeding an existing area, mow your lawn at the lowest setting and bag the clippingsx. Rake or drag any areas that have dead thatch or debris.
