Grass Seed Mixes

Growing grass in Scotland seems to be getting more difficult.

We seem to have longer periods of wetter weather, making it more difficult to grow grass that performs, persists, and competes with weeds, particularly rushes.

This field lab will try and find some solutions to this problem. We will be comparing some off-the-shelf grass seed mixes with more bespoke mixes suited to local conditions.  We’ll look at both quantity and quality of grass.
