Characteristics

Hancock's Argentine Bahia Spring & Summer Grass Seed Mix is a great replacement option for problematic lawns and pastures, especially in warmer climates. Its deep and dense root structure allows it to perform well under drought conditions and it is one of the most environmentally-friendly lawn and pasture varieties available.

Argentine Bahia Grass has wide, broad leaves with a light to medium green color. Bahia's require a minimum of 8 hours of sunlight for optimal growth. Once established, Argentine Bahia Grass produces 10 to 12 feet of deep and dense root structure. Hancock’s Argentine Bahia grass seed is the best lawn grass and pasture grass seed available for southern climates, especially Florida. This variety makes an excellent low-maintenance permanent lawn grass or pasture grass for horses, cattle, and any other type of livestock.

The Brown Top Millet is added to assist in fast ground coverage, retaining soil moisture and preventing soil and seed erosion. The Brown Top Millet will germinate in 7 days under optimal conditions and grow for approximately 65 days. It is very important to keep the newly seeded areas watered and mowed to prevent the Brown Top Millet from overcrowding or shading out the Argentine Bahia seedlings.

Coated seed is surrounded in a clay based coating which aids in moisture retention for germination, birds tend not to eat the coated seed, and it is easier to see where it has been spread. The coating takes up a portion of the bag, which means less seed per pound but you are getting the added benefit of the coating. The raw seed is just how it sounds, seed in the purest form - not coated or mixed with anything.

Hancock's Argentine Spring & Summer Grass Seed Mix contains:
Argentine Bahia Grass Seed - Coated
Brown Top Millet Seed - Raw

Hancock's Argentine Spring & Summer Grass Seed mix typically has Argentine Bahia Grass Seed and Brown Top Millet Seed. The percentages of mixes can vary slightly from year to year. Please call our office with any questions (800-552-1027).

Soil Prep

  • 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 clippings. Rake or drag any areas that have dead thatch or debris.

 

Seeding

  • Seeding Rate: 2 - 3 lbs. per 1,000 sq. ft. or 100-150 lbs. per acre
  • Overseeding Rate: 1 - 2 lbs. per 1,000 sq. ft. or 50 - 100 lbs. per acre
  • Spread at the recommended rate based on total area and whether it is bare ground or pre-existing vegetation.
  • Spreader Settings: There is not any one setting that applies for all brands of spreaders. We recommend reviewing the seed settings chart that came with your spreader or contact the manufacturer directly. Ensure you are choosing a seed on the list by the manufacturer that closely resembles the seed you are choosing to plant.
    • If you have any concerns on what setting you should use, we recommend always starting with the smallest option then adjusting it to match the recommended seeding rate.

 

Fertilizer

  • Grass like all living things need food to survive. Food for grasses is fertilizer. We recommend fertilizing every 3 - 4 months with Hancock's 16-04-08 Lawn & Pasture Fertilizer. Our 16-04-08 Lawn and Pasture Fertilizer is custom blended to provide a slow-releasing, water-activated economical fertilizer. Hancock's 16-04-08 Lawn & Pasture Fertilizer can be applied at a rate of 5 lbs. per 1,000 sq. ft. or 250 lbs. per acre. The most probable cause of a declining lawn or pasture is poor nutrition. If you have any concerns about your soil, we recommend getting your soil tested to determine what nutrients you are low in as well as your pH. The results of the soil testing will give you the best information to amend your soil for the best grass growth.

 

Watering Schedule

  • For best results, water your lawn each morning and evening for 30 minutes based on weather conditions, until the new seedlings have reached the height of 3 - 5 inches for lawns or 8 - 20 inches for pasture.
  • Once they have reached that height, water 3 times per week as needed. 
  • For best results, keep the soil moist while not over-watering the area or creating puddles.

 

Germination Time

  • Brown Top Millet - 7 days, under optimal conditions
  • Argentine Bahia - 21 - 30 days, under optimal conditions

 

Mowing Requirements

  • Lawns: Mow at 3 - 5 inches regularly.
  • Pastures: Mow or allow grazing to keep pastures maintained at 8-20 inches.
  • It is very important to keep the newly seeded areas watered and mowed at 3 - 5 inches to prevent the Brown Top Millet from overcrowding or shading out the Argentine Bahia seedlings.

Soft, Stylish Leopard Blanket That’s Lightweight, Cozy, and Big Enough to Share
I have been using this leopard print blanket on both the bed and the couch, and it hits a really nice balance between style, size, and comfort. I went with the larger twin style size instead of a small throw, and that was the right call; it is big enough to fully cover me when I am lying on the couch and works much better for two people sitting side by side than a standard throw that always feels a bit cramped. It also looks great draped across the end of a bed or over the back of a sofa, so it doubles as decor. The leopard pattern is genuinely attractive in person. Up close you can see that it is a printed, short shag/flannel style rather than true faux fur, but the brown leopard version still reads more realistic and intentional than a lot of loud, pink “leopard” prints. The colors are vibrant and have a nice pop without being tacky, so it fits easily into different rooms and color schemes as a fun accent. From a distance, it gives a soft, faux fur vibe that looks more expensive than it is. Comfort wise, it is very soft and pleasant to snuggle with. One side feels just slightly softer than the other, but both are smooth and cozy against the skin. It is a single layer blanket with rolled and stitched edges, so it is not a super thick winter comforter, but that actually makes it more versatile. It provides enough warmth to feel comforting without being overly hot, which makes it a nice year round piece: cozy in cooler weather with an extra layer, and just right on its own in milder seasons. The blanket is also lightweight, which makes it easy to move around the house or pack for travel, while still feeling substantial enough that it does not come across as flimsy. It has held up well so far, and the overall quality feels good for the price, especially given the larger size. If you love animal prints and want something that works as both decor and a genuinely comfy blanket to curl up with, this one is easy to recommend. Pros: Large twin style size is big enough to fully cover an adult or share on the couch Soft, plush flannel style fabric that feels cozy against the skin Lightweight but still warm enough to be comfortable year round Brown leopard print looks stylish and more realistic than many novelty patterns Colors are vibrant and work well with a variety of room styles and palettes Edges are neatly rolled and stitched, giving it a clean finished look Cons: Single layer construction means it is not as heavy or insulating as a thick winter blanket

Super Cozy & Stylish – My New Favorite Throw Blanket
I recently got this brown leopard print throw blanket, and it quickly became one of my favorite cozy essentials at home. The first thing that stood out to me was the trendy animal print design—it adds a bold, stylish touch to my living room and makes my couch look instantly more put together. The material is incredibly soft and plush. It has that fluffy flannel feel that’s perfect for snuggling, whether I’m watching TV, reading, or just relaxing. It’s warm without being too heavy, which makes it great for using all year round. I also really like the size (60" x 80")—it’s big enough to fully wrap around me or share when sitting on the couch. It works just as well on the bed as it does as a decorative throw. Another plus is how lightweight and easy to carry it is. I’ve even taken it along for road trips, and it’s been perfect for staying comfortable on the go. If I had to point out one small downside, it’s that lighter-colored fabrics can show wear over time if not cared for properly, so I make sure to wash it gently to keep it looking fresh. Overall, I’m really happy with this blanket. It’s the perfect mix of comfort and style, and it adds a cozy, fashionable vibe to any space. Definitely a great pick if you love soft textures and bold décor!

Soft, Warm, and Holds Up Well After Washing
We grabbed this primarily for couch lounging and it has been a regular rotation blanket since it arrived. The softness is legitimate, not the kind that feels good out of the packaging and then stiffens up after a wash or two. It has gone through the machine multiple times and both the texture and the leopard print have held up without fading or pilling. The 50 by 60 inch size is a comfortable fit for one person stretched out on the couch. It is warm without being heavy, which makes it practical across seasons rather than just winter. The print looks sharp and adds some personality to a living room without being over the top. For a throw blanket at this price, the quality is better than expected and it has earned a permanent spot on our couch. If you are looking for something soft, visually interesting, and durable enough to actually use regularly, this one delivers.

Pretty good blanket. Slightly larger than normal throw.
I purchased this leopard print throw blanket because you can get it in twin size and twin size is a lot more usable in not only a bed but also on a couch. Like if you have two people sitting next to each other, it's a lot easier to use the twin size than a throw size, which I feel is a little bit cramped. In addition to that, I saw in the picture that this looked almost like fur. Now when you look at it in person, you can clearly tell it's not for it's got almost like a a spotted pattern even with the spots. And while I don't know if leopards actually look like that, certainly at a distance, it feels a lot more accurate than things that are only vaguely leopard printed like the the common pink ones, as you can see here in the other variety. But certainly the Brown leopard one looks good. Plus, it is comfortable and pretty soft. It's softer on one side than another side, but only slightly and while it's rolled over and stitched at the edges, it is a single layer throughout. So it's not going to give you a ton of warmth. But I will give you some warmth, you know just enough to be nice and that means you can use it year round. So overall at this price for a twin size leopard print throw. I think this is a good deal. Well I think it could be a better deal. I've certainly seen worse so I think I could recommend this product
