Hancock's Common Bermuda Grass is a low-maintenance option for those looking to establish new lawn, pasture, or other turf projects. This blend will grow in tough soils, and can weather traffic from any feet; human or animal.~~~

Hancock's Common Bermuda Grass Seed makes an excellent low-maintenance, drought-resistant lawn or pasture grass. Common Bermuda Grass is a crawling turf, with runners providing great traffic tolerance, wear-resistance and fine leaf texture with medium green color.

Hancock's Common Bermuda Grass grows well in very sandy and poor soil types, where other grasses have trouble. Hancock's Common Bermuda Grass is commonly used for lawn, pasture, turf, erosion control, parks, and landscaping applications across the country.

One of the aspects that makes Common Bermuda a popular option for creating a new lawn is its low-maintenance requirements, and its aggressive growing tendencies. Because of the quick spread of Common Bermuda Grass, it often crowds out weeds that can become a nuisance for those trying to maintain a lawn. The only exception will be during the Winter months, when Common Bermuda Grass naturally goes dormant because of the colder weather. At this point, due to the decrease in growth, weeds will be able to "make a break for it." At the same time, those keeping gardens that border the lawn will need to keep an eye on how quickly the Common Bermuda Grass spreads; it will frequently get through cracks in retaining walls and continue growing anywhere it can find healthy soil! 

Adaptation:

Hancock's Common Bermuda Grass Seed thrives in tropical regions, subtropical regions, and transition regions. This includes the states of Florida, Georgia, South Carolina, Alabama, North Carolina, Tennessee, Mississippi, Kentucky, Arkansas, Louisiana, Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, Southern California, and Hawaii.

Hulled Seed vs. Unhulled Seed

The process of hulling refers to the process of removing the outer shell of a Bermuda Grass seed. Hulled seed has no outer shell when sold to you, whereas Unhulled seed still has its outer covering. There are benefits to both methods, and you should consider which option makes the most sense for your situation before purchasing Common Bermuda. Hulled seed is much more efficient for planting, requiring much less seed per acre or 1,000 sq. ft. However, planting Hulled Seed also means you will need to adhere to a more specific planting time to ensure proper germination. Because of its extra layer of protection, Unhulled seed is more flexible, and it will germinate when conditions are good. Do not confuse "coating" and "hulling." Hancock Seed can add coating to either Hulled or Unhulled Seed in order to boost its germination rate. This will not detract from a seed's Hulled state.

Coated Seed vs Raw Seed

Coated seed contains a clay-based surrounding shell that increases moisture retention and helps to reduce insect or fowl consumption. Coated seed contains approximately 50% coating weight, or inert weight, per pound of seed. Coated Hancock's Common Bermuda Seed (Coated and Unhulled) is also easier to see after it is applied. Raw seed features no fillers, coatings, or treatments.

Rave Reviews

It's no secret why Hancock's Common Bermuda Seed (Coated and Unhulled) is so popular. The answer is "because it works"! Here are a few of our favorite reviews from clients who have planted Hancock's Common Bermuda Seed (Coated and Unhulled):


"I am very happy with my purchase and my experience thus far has been fantastic," says Shirley P. "The seeds are filling in my holes in the lawn very well and the grass looks good and healthy. I am so satisfied that I will be purchasing the product again real soon."

"Received my seed, distributed seed accordingly and had gemination within 10 days, with 99% success!" writes Collin P. "Have ordered another 50lb bag for overseeding in the future. Would definitely recommend Hancock Seed Company and will be a repeat customer."

Lawn Applications

For new lawns, plant 1-2 lbs. of seed per 1,000 sq. ft.

For lawn fertilization, apply 5-10 lbs. of 16-04-08 slow release fertilizer per 1,000 sq. ft., four times a year (late Spring, mid-Summer, late Summer, and early Fall) for the first two years. Apply 5 lbs. per 1000 sq. ft. two times (mid-Summer, and late Summer) a year after a fully-established lawn has been accomplished.

Although Bermuda Grass is adapted to thrive in areas where temperatures are high, it can struggle during periods of low rainfall where soil moisture is on the low side. When soil moisture is low, circular patches of brown grass can form, a condition commonly referred to as "Brown Spot." This most frequently happens during both the Spring and Fall, when daytime temperatures are warm and then drop to cooler places in the evening. The best way to prevent Brown Spot is through an annual, moderate application of fertilizer, as well as weekly irrigation during these seasons. Watering the lawn should occur during the early morning hours so that the grass dries quickly during the day, preventing fungal problems.

Pasture Applications

For new pastures, plant 15-30 lbs. of seed per acre. For erosion areas, plant 25-50 lbs. per acre.

For pasture fertilization, apply 250-350 lbs. of 16-04-08 slow release fertilizer per acre, three times a year (late Spring, mid-Summer, and early Fall). Animals that are grazing will damage the Bermuda grass if the pasture is not properly fertilized annually. The grass must be provided with adequate nutrients to compete with the animals.

Definitely worth the read!
Format: Kindle
After taking a deep breath and taking in that wicked twist of an ending, I have finally composed myself. My first thought when I started this book was that I love Reyna's character. I was intrigued by her connection with her familiar and the Ruin that is plaguing her land. It came as no surprise that she took her sister's place in an attempt to protect her. When they reach the Air Court everything slows down. This is where it was iffy for me. First of all, I like multiple POV's in books however 7 is a bit much. It starts to interrupt the story line. I felt like I was finally making progress connecting with one character, then it was switched to another person. I felt they all had necessary or pertinent information but not necessarily were they all POV worthy. The only other thing that annoyed me was that Reyna constantly was " trapped." She would rush off without thinking, only to need rescuing. She is brilliant in a fight, but she really doesn't think through anything. Lorcan is amazing. I know he might be on the "bad" list, but his background is so interesting. Eislyn(Reyna's sister) is really so sweet, but calculating. I enjoyed her and Thane's dialogue. The author did an amazing job with the imagery in this book. Everything was so detailed it was easy to fall into the scene. I love unexpected twists and while part of the ending I expected, I wasn't expecting how it took place. All in all, I found it very entertaining and I am very invested in continuing this series. Favorite quotes: "The truth may be twisted but never false." "Who was she if she was not the enemy of the Air Court? What was her purpose of she no longer has that?" "In a war-torn land, love was always a lie."

Great Read!!! Great story!!!
Format: Kindle
The series is long, but Ms. Wolfhart does a fantastic job of weaving this tale while bringing so much to the characters. Surprises and plot twists along the way to keep you intrigued. There is some graphic sex, but is no way the focal point. Grammar was excellent (a rare find with a lot of self publishers) with only a few noted errors. I rarely give 4 stars, let alone 5.

Sadly, DNF
Format: Kindle
I read this thru KU. I LOVED the synopsis. And then I began reading... and it was a DNF at 68% after picking it up and putting it down several times because I really loved the main female character. *****SPOILERS***** Pros: The world is unique, intriguing and fun. The primary female character is bad-a** but not a b*tech or a mary sue. The primary female has depth. I really want to know what happens to her even tho it's been weeks and I don't remember her name. The villains to the point I read are pretty good -- an ever present threat of mysterious and possibly many culprits. Cons: Way, way too many points of view. I stopped counting at 7. It's the prime reason why I don't care about most of the characters or remember their names even when I like them. There's just too many points of view so almost none of the characters have enough book space for the author to properly develop them. This literally killed the book for me. Actually it killed my desire to read. For weeks. The main male is more villain than hero. He agreed to marry the main female then locks her up & eschews her for her sister, all while bad mouthing her as unfit to rule when he never spent any time with her getting to know her. He is actually unfit to rule as he is blind to the woes of his own kingdom and starts off a peace mission to secure a ceasefire through marriage by murdering an inn full of people in her country for no real reason. Plus, he constantly makes promises he does not keep. And it's gross of him to pine for the sister behind the main female's back. ***** As much as I really wanted to see what happened to the main female character, it wasn't enough for me to keep trying to slog thru this book. There was a lot of potential here that just fell short. Hence, 3 stars.

Fae Courts with High Intrigue
Format: Kindle
This book is one that just builds and builds and then surprises you to no end. You may think you know the villains and then you are jolted in another direction. Princess Reyna is a real gem, strong of character, a fierce fighter, and loyal to her family and kingdom. Just when you think she and Lorcan, well you know, the plot is flipped. Can't wait to see where this goes in book two.

Slow, sorry but good
Format: Kindle
This was a slow moving book. Lots of character pov chapters, lots of superfluous descriptions and endless courtly appearances stalled this book to start. Once you get into the heart of the story, it takes off. Before you know it the book is done. My favorite character is Reyna. She is so strong. She is true to herself. She gets into a lot of trouble with her headstrong ways but it's entertaining. I have high hopes for Lorcan. He is honorable to a fault. Thane had turned out to be better than I thought but i still don't like him. Eislin is useless. Great plot twists at the end. I'm looking forward too book 2.
