• Princess 77 Bermuda Grass Seeding Rate: 2 - 3 pounds of seed per 1000 square feet of certified seed, hulled, coated form.
• Time to Plant: Plant bermuda grass seed when soil temperatures are consistently above 65° F
• Where to Plant: In full sun on well drained soil. Proper drainage is essential for successful establishment and the development of mature healthy bermuda grass.
• Planting Method: Do not cover the bermuda grass seed with too much soil - no more than 1/4 in. covering over the seed is recommended.
• Water: Soil moisture around the bermuda grass seed must be maintained for about 1-2 weeks.
• Days to Germinate: Under ideal conditions, germination may begin within 7 days. Allow 14 to 21 days for completion for bermuda grass seed.
• Establishment Time: Under ideal conditions, full coverage may be attained between 4 to 6 weeks. If planting is occurring early or late in the season, more time may be needed for establishment.
• First Mowing: After most of the grass seed has filled in and when the blades of grass are 1/3 taller than your desired mowing height. It is recommended that no more than 1/3 of the leaf blade be removed per mowing.
• Mower/Mowing Height/Frequency: Reel mower recommended/Minimum height 3/8 in. to 3/4 in. Every 3 to 7 days.
• Winter Overseeding: May be done for year round green color, but not generally recommended on bermuda grass less than 6 to 8 months of age. Immature turf may be damaged by the verticutting and scalping procedures, leaving it unable to compete with the overseeded species during the spring transition.
• Maintenance: This hybrid is dense. Periodic verticutting may be required under high maintenance conditions.

New turf: 2 - 3 pounds of bermuda grass seed per 1,000 square feet. Plant when soil temperature reaches 65 degrees in spring up until a minimum of 6 weeks before frost in fall.
