Pay attention to your seed labels! Note that “other crop seed” would include things like ryegrass in a tall fescue seed. 1% is enough to leave one rye grass plant every foot in every direction.

@PingyuanZ Congrats Bay!

I would like to take this opportunity to sincerely thank Dr. James Murphy, Dr. Bruce Clarke as my advisors; Dr. Stacy Bonos, Dr. Paul Koch, and Dr. Daniel Ward who served my academic committee at RU. At last, I thank Dr. Bruce Branham who opened the door to turf world for me.
