Q: Is this safe to plant for goats

2 months ago
1 Answer
  • A: Shady North would be safe in moderation. The tall fescues in Shady North have higher levels of endophytes that may be harmful to goats if consumed in high amounts. Safer options would be Kentucky 32, All-Purpose Forage Grass Seed North, or Equine and Livestock Forage Overseeder Mix.

Q: Is this grass blend safe for use in a horse pasture?

8 months ago
1 Answer
  • A: No, this would not be a safe choice for a horse pasture. Turf Type Tall Fescue has higher levels of endophytes than Forage Type Tall Fescue. A safer option would be GroundWork Equine Forage Mix Grass Seed, North.

Q: How will this grass do in NE Tennessee? We have an area under some shade trees that also gets a lot of water run off when it rains ( which it does often ). It will get some sun, just not a bunch.

1 Answer
  • A: The shady lawn seed mixture will do well in the area in question if they have 4-6 hours of filtered sunlight per day. Also, they may need to add limestone to help the soil aeration.

Crap.

8 months ago
Planted under a red maple tree. It came up really fast but mostly died out after about 6 weeks because it was mostly annual ryegrass. Don't waste your money.

Just what I needed.

a year ago
Very pleased and suprised how fast this came up. It's been cool and rainy here and when sunny the area the seed was put down in only gets a few hours of sun.

Yes, I recommend this product.
