Where to buy retail quantity of quality grass seed for overseeding.
I have a reasonable quality lawn with no ryegrass in it. I want to buy about
a kilo of seed, with a high proportion of browntop, for overseeding. The only suppliers I have been able to find that specify and sell this sort of seed do so for golf clubs and the like and in quantities from 10 kilos upwards. Most retail stores either don't specify the make up of the seed or if they do, it includes ryrgrass. Any ideas please? |

Most bowling greens use a mixture of about 20% fescues and 80% browntop, so it might be worth seeking out the groundsman at your local bowling club. I bet he'd swap half a kilo of seed for, say, 4 pints of spitfire ale. |

Not sure if it helps, but.
Check out http://www.wilko.co.uk/index.htm as our local store sells loose (2 different mixes) Or your local ag merchant http://www.countrywidefarmers.co.uk/ |

I feel quite sure that the DIY sheds like B&Q _always_ have the seed blend specified on the packet: the named brands certainly will -- it's sometimes listed on an adhesive label, though. And last time I was looking at grass seed (a few years back, I admit), both B&Q and Focus definitely had at least one mixture described explicitly as "without ryegrass". -- Mike. |

I just happened to be on eBay when I read your post :-) http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/SUPREME-FINE-L...QQcmdZViewItem Gavin |
