Product Information


Buffalograss adapts best to full sun, but acceptable turf can be grown with 6 to 8 hours per day of direct sunlight. It is one of the most heat and drought tolerant of turfgrass species. Buffalograss has better cold tolerance than other warm-season turfgrasses, but the degree of cold tolerance varies among cultivars. Buffalograss does not germinate as a dense stand like tall fescue. One seedling per square foot is adequate because buffalograss becomes progressively thicker each year as the stolons spread.

All of our Buffalograss has been 'primed' to ensure faster and more uniform germination and establishment. This process breaks the natural dormancy of the seed and ensures that the seed starts growing more quickly when planted.

Buffalograss may be seeded or it may be vegetatively established using either sod or plugs or both, depending on the cultivar. Seeded cultivars will have both male and female flowers, while sodded types are predominantly female.The best time to plant is late spring or early summer, although sod and plugs may be planted as late as August or early September.

Buffalograss is a warm-season grass that spreads by above ground stems called stolons. Reproduction is dioecious -- female and male flowers are located on separate plants. Seed heads on male plants are located high in the turf grass canopy, while female seed heads are found near the base of the plant.

Avoid frequent irrigation, and water only as needed to maintain desired quality. For chemical weed control, use only products labeled for buffalograss. Avoid over-fertilization with nitrogen. Do not use 2,4-D on buffalograss during the first year of establishment or when temperature exceeds 80 degrees Fahrenheit. Fall applications are preferred for control of broadleaf weeds in buffalograss.

Seeding
Buffalograss seed burs should be planted at a rate of 1 to 3 pounds per 1,000 square feet. Seeding at the higher recommended rate should provide complete lawn coverage in one season. Seed burrs should be planted at a depth of 1/16 inch or less. Grooves can be made in the soil to receive seed using a verticutting machine or with a slicer-seeder machine that opens grooves in the soil and then deposits seed during one operation. It is important to use burrs that have been primed for germination by soaking in potassium nitrate to weaken the coat. Burrs may also be broadcast on the prepared seedbed using a box (drop) fertilizer spreader. Hulled, deburred seed is sometimes available but is much more expensive than burrs. Gently rake broadcasted burrs into the soil surface and then roll to ensure good burr-to-soil contact.

Lightly water the seedbed daily when there is no rain. As seedlings emerge and develop, irrigate less frequently but often enough to prevent drought stress. Mow seedlings at a height of 2 to 3 inches when the new seedlings have reached a height of 3 inches. Try to remove no more than one-third of the vertical growth at each mowing. About six weeks after seeding, apply a slow release nitrogen fertilizer at a rate of 1 pound nitrogen per 1,000 square feet.

Best Stuff Non Greasy Super Shine
Scent: Argan Oil
Wow! This product blew my mind! I have fine hair, bleached blond and this product made my hair soooo shiny nothing has ever done that! The fragrance is minimal but pleasant. This improved the condition of my hair immediately and I didn't even leave it on very long. No greasy feel afterward which is important with my fine hair. I bought another for daughter's frizzy hair she was impressed.

Fantastic heat protection
Color: Biotin, Color: Biotin
I highly recommend this heat protecting spray because it has truly helped my hair become healthier. I blow dry and straighten my hair so much and I rarely use to protect it so it became quite damaged over time. I've been using this for roughly 3 weeks now and my hair is becoming healthier, shinier and growing so much better because it's not breaking or getting dried out. I like the smell of the spray - it's really nice. It's not sticky and doesn't leave any residue in my hair. And it doesn't leave my hair stiff like it's got hair spray in it. This spray stops my hair from going all frizzy including when I'm hot or it's humid. It also protects my hair colour too. I would recommend this.

Makes my hair so soft and healthy! BUT
Color: Biotin
I bought this obviously as a heat protectant for my hair. Most heat protectanta leave my hair with texture, like an almost sticky straw like feel to my hair. I thought that was normal. This one though leaves my hair silky, soft, smooth. It literally is so soft to run my fingers theough and takes down my flyaways/breakage from damaged hair. It has increased the quality of my hair so much it feels young and healthy again. HOWEVER, as much as I love this product , because of how soft it leaves my hair, my hair doesn't hold a curl when I use this. I wear beach waves most daysr and once I've used this my hair doesn't want to curl AT ALL. it feels equivalent to curling my hair in humidity. By the time I get to the second side, the first side has fallen out. It took me a while to realize it was how soft this product was leaving my hair that was the culprit. I've decided I don't care and am just figuring slightly different ways of styling my hair with less curl than I'm used to because I'm going to keep using this product for everything it does for me. OH! Also I bought a bottle and after like a hundred pumps nothing ever came out so I exchanged for a new one and the second did the same thing, I figured they couldn't both be broken so I just kept pumping and pumping and pumping (literally way too many times) and it finally started spraying and has been working perfectly fine. So just keep pricing that pump for what feels like forever and it'll start working for you! I highly recommend this product
