Product Information


Buffalograss adapts best to full sun, but acceptable turf can be grown with 6 to 8 hours per day of direct sunlight. It is one of the most heat and drought tolerant of turfgrass species. Buffalograss has better cold tolerance than other warm-season turfgrasses, but the degree of cold tolerance varies among cultivars. Buffalograss does not germinate as a dense stand like tall fescue. One seedling per square foot is adequate because buffalograss becomes progressively thicker each year as the stolons spread.

All of our Buffalograss has been 'primed' to ensure faster and more uniform germination and establishment. This process breaks the natural dormancy of the seed and ensures that the seed starts growing more quickly when planted.

Buffalograss may be seeded or it may be vegetatively established using either sod or plugs or both, depending on the cultivar. Seeded cultivars will have both male and female flowers, while sodded types are predominantly female.The best time to plant is late spring or early summer, although sod and plugs may be planted as late as August or early September.

Buffalograss is a warm-season grass that spreads by above ground stems called stolons. Reproduction is dioecious -- female and male flowers are located on separate plants. Seed heads on male plants are located high in the turf grass canopy, while female seed heads are found near the base of the plant.

Avoid frequent irrigation, and water only as needed to maintain desired quality. For chemical weed control, use only products labeled for buffalograss. Avoid over-fertilization with nitrogen. Do not use 2,4-D on buffalograss during the first year of establishment or when temperature exceeds 80 degrees Fahrenheit. Fall applications are preferred for control of broadleaf weeds in buffalograss.

Seeding
Buffalograss seed burs should be planted at a rate of 1 to 3 pounds per 1,000 square feet. Seeding at the higher recommended rate should provide complete lawn coverage in one season. Seed burrs should be planted at a depth of 1/16 inch or less. Grooves can be made in the soil to receive seed using a verticutting machine or with a slicer-seeder machine that opens grooves in the soil and then deposits seed during one operation. It is important to use burrs that have been primed for germination by soaking in potassium nitrate to weaken the coat. Burrs may also be broadcast on the prepared seedbed using a box (drop) fertilizer spreader. Hulled, deburred seed is sometimes available but is much more expensive than burrs. Gently rake broadcasted burrs into the soil surface and then roll to ensure good burr-to-soil contact.

Lightly water the seedbed daily when there is no rain. As seedlings emerge and develop, irrigate less frequently but often enough to prevent drought stress. Mow seedlings at a height of 2 to 3 inches when the new seedlings have reached a height of 3 inches. Try to remove no more than one-third of the vertical growth at each mowing. About six weeks after seeding, apply a slow release nitrogen fertilizer at a rate of 1 pound nitrogen per 1,000 square feet.

Awakening to reality of other realms
Format: Paperback
It has been a long-time of mankind's understanding of science that we have forgotten the things our ancient ancestors knew about our planet. There are other species of life here and there is an order that we don't control directly. We can work with the spirits of nature to create balance and plenty for our existence and theirs, or we can choose to ignore and continue on our path of Earth's destruction, and ultimately this also mean's our own demise. Here is a way to awaken to the elements of Nature and how we are supposed to work together.

In depth look at Wilhelm Reich's life and discoveries
Format: Paperback
In depth look at Wilhelm Reich's life and discoveries. Up to date with new technology like LED bulbs. It has sections on how to practically make some of his devices with pictures. Explains in detail about sources and some disclaimers on how not to do things wrong. Great read. Real full length book. The print on some pages was not the highest quality. Looked like the printer was low on ink. The information was readable however. If you want to learn more about Wilhelm Reich and his tragic story it is a great read with practical solutions for your health. There is no over claim of fixing everything overnight and I look forward to testing a lot of his great ideas.

2nd purchase of this excellent book
Format: Paperback
I had a copy of this book years ago which I loaned out and never saw again. Now I will tell people where they can buy their own copy. Orgone works. I have made several Orgone blankets for myself and others. They are an amazing tool. Looking forward to trying some of the other projects detailed in the book.
