Road Verge and Embankments

A good choice for slopes and banks
Road verge and embankments is a smart choice for roadsides and large areas. The durable red fescue carries a lot of resistance and can grow in environments that lack nutrients.
The mixtures adaptability to different soil- and climate conditions improve through the addition of hard fescue and sheep’s fescue. Perennial ryegrass guarantees quick establishment and with that a fast and effective erosion control.

Preparation of the ground
The surface should, for the best result, be free from year-old weeds such as couch grass and thistles. The ground should not be all too rich in nutrients. The best results come with soil that lacks nutrients, such as sand/fine sand or subsoil.
Too muddy and nutrient-rich soils may be improved by making a deep plowing and mix the food soil with rough peat moss or leaner subsoil.
If the ground is compact or dry, the surface should be dug up and watered.
The ground should be plain so that TURFquick road verge and embankments receives good contact with the soil on the rollout.
When to plant our grass seed mats ⇄ Biodegradable grass seed blanket
Best results are obtained when seeding in the early spring or fall, when daily temperatures range between 15˚C and 26˚C, as these conditions are ideal for seedling growth.
Spring Planting: Plant in early spring when temperatures are between 12˚C and 26˚C. This allows time for the seed to grow and establish before facing the hot, dry conditions of summer.
Fall Planting: Plant in the late summer or early fall when daily temperatures are consistently between 18˚C and 26˚C. Fall is a great time for planting because the warm days and cool nights promote growth.
Care: Look out for weeds and diseases.
Irrigation: Necessary, Water is an essential part of the germination process for your grass seeds. Without it, the process will slow down significantly, and in the worst cases, it may stop completely.
Germination: 2 to 4 weeks in ideal conditions.
First Cut: At 8/10cm may be ready to be mowed within 2 to 4 weeks of planting.
First Use: Limited after 3-4 weeks. Everything depends upon weather, time of year and how well the ground was prepared. Only when the roots have penetrated the soil below and established is the ‘new’ lawn ready for action.
Once you have mowed the lawn 3 to 5 times, it is ready for foot traffic. Bear in mind that you should also keep pets away from newly planted grass as the seeds are delicate and fragile.

Changes to mixtures
Occasionally, shortages of some varieties may occur throughout the season. We therefore reserve the right to replace varieties not available with a suitable alternative. Any alteration to the mixture will be clearly shown on the bag label.
The varieties are internationally tested by independent institutes – also in the Scandinavian countries.
