Brief Guide: To produce a short, dense and consistent playing surface.

Sowing Rate: 50-100 grams per sq metre (2-3 oz per sq yard)

Mixture:
  75% certified Common Bent agrostis capillaris
  25% certified Browntop Bent agrostis tenuis

Additional Information:
Good preparation is essential when creating a putting green. The area to be sown must be exactly the shape, size and density required before the seed is applied. Cutting should take place a minimum of 4 times per week to maintain a quality putting surface and on competition sites this may be increased to twice a day. This mixture is also very suitable for the maintainence of established putting greens. Use at half the recommended sowing rate when overseeding but cover the entire area for a more uniform colour match.
