GCI Turf Cool Blue Seed: Proudly certified “Blue Tag”, this is a 4-way mixture of high-quality “A-List” Turf Type Tall Fescue and Kentucky Bluegrass seed.
Product Description:
GCI is proud to be known for having “weed-free” grass seeds, 0% weed seed, and 0% other crop. They look for three basic things when choosing the varieties that go in their grass seed mixes/blends. It must be readily available to them, it must have an excellent history in the NTEP trials (National Turfgrass Evaluation Program), and it must be affordable.
You may be curious about what "A List" varieties are. In a nutshell, A List varieties are varieties of turf that are selected to be on the A List due to their performance. They “stand out” in the crowd, for lack of better words. Some would consider A List varieties to be the best of the best.
“Blue Tag” seed refers to a certification tag affixed to the seed bag, providing a guarantee to professionals or consumers that the variety stated is certified. Essentially, blue tag acts as an extra level of testing to ensure that you get precisely what you pay for.
The GCI Cool Blue Seed is now classified as “A List” and “Blue Tagged”. This blend has retained the Midnight KBG variety as well, although it is not an A List variety. Nevertheless, it does carry the blue tag to verify its authenticity as the renowned Midnight seed.
Here’s what you can expect in your GCI Turf Cool Blue:
How much seed to use?
When should you plant Cool Blue TTTF/KBG?
Fall is a great time to seed Cool Blue TTTF/KBG. Plant Cool Blue TTTF/KBG seed when soil temperatures are between 50° and 65°F. Your air temperature should be around 60° to 75°at this time. The fescue in Cool Blue TTTF/KBG seed will take anywhere from 4 - 10 days to germinate. The KBG seed will need more time to germinate because it takes anywhere from 14-30 days to germinate. Mid August - Mid October is a great time frame, depending on where you live in the country and what your soil and air temperatures are. Patience is required while waiting on KBG to sprout. Don’t get consumed by waiting on the KBG...it will come. We only recommend springtime seeding when absolutely necessary.
Germination:
The trick to seed germination is to KEEP THE SEED MOIST! Water multiple times a day, light and frequently every day to ensure the ground and seed stay moist. Cool Blue TTTF/KBG seed can take anywhere from 4 to 10 days to germinate depending on environmental conditions. Be patient...it will come up with time. Once you have germination, you can slowly revert back to watering 1” per week...deep and infrequent. During hot, dry weather, established Cool Blue TTTF/KBG may need as much as 1.5” - 2” of water per week.
