What happens here

At the second job site, the landscaper inspects an area where grass seed was planted in early November. Despite favorable seeding conditions initially, a subsequent cold streak (high of 10 degrees Fahrenheit) hindered its growth, resulting in patchy grass. He compares this to a nearby section where a turf establishment blanket was used, which showed significantly better growth, highlighting the importance of appropriate methods and timing for successful grass establishment, especially in challenging climates.

Goal: Evaluate the effectiveness of different grass establishment methods under adverse weather conditions.

Tools and materials

  • Grass Seed — Attempting to grow new grass
  • Turf Establishment Blanket — Protecting grass seed and promoting growth

good stuff. Customer's house and here's the grand experiment. We did this job a while ago. We planted this grass seed back in the beginning of November and had the worst cold streak you could imagine. And we want to see if this grows. How's it look? Uh a little bit patchy. Kind of patchy, isn't it? Mhm. But there's still a lot of seed there. I think some of it probably just went dormant. Well, yeah, cuz as soon as we got done seeding it, we had a cold streak. It was a high of 10° in November. Yeah, cuz there's more growing in the So, let's see how the turf cuz we got quick grass turf establishment blanket laid down. Let's see how that compares. So, without it Now, you used a different product here. Mhm. So, look at that. I think that turf establishment blanket actually does a better job than this granular stuff that you put down. What do you think? I would say look at the look at the difference. Yeah.
