Characteristics

Hancock's Argentine Bahia Spring & Summer Grass Seed Mix is a great replacement option for problematic lawns and pastures, especially in warmer climates. Its deep and dense root structure allows it to perform well under drought conditions and it is one of the most environmentally-friendly lawn and pasture varieties available.

Argentine Bahia Grass has wide, broad leaves with a light to medium green color. Bahia's require a minimum of 8 hours of sunlight for optimal growth. Once established, Argentine Bahia Grass produces 10 to 12 feet of deep and dense root structure. Hancock’s Argentine Bahia grass seed is the best lawn grass and pasture grass seed available for southern climates, especially Florida. This variety makes an excellent low-maintenance permanent lawn grass or pasture grass for horses, cattle, and any other type of livestock.

The Brown Top Millet is added to assist in fast ground coverage, retaining soil moisture and preventing soil and seed erosion. The Brown Top Millet will germinate in 7 days under optimal conditions and grow for approximately 65 days. It is very important to keep the newly seeded areas watered and mowed to prevent the Brown Top Millet from overcrowding or shading out the Argentine Bahia seedlings.

Coated seed is surrounded in a clay based coating which aids in moisture retention for germination, birds tend not to eat the coated seed, and it is easier to see where it has been spread. The coating takes up a portion of the bag, which means less seed per pound but you are getting the added benefit of the coating. The raw seed is just how it sounds, seed in the purest form - not coated or mixed with anything.

Hancock's Argentine Spring & Summer Grass Seed Mix contains:
Argentine Bahia Grass Seed - Coated
Brown Top Millet Seed - Raw

Hancock's Argentine Spring & Summer Grass Seed mix typically has Argentine Bahia Grass Seed and Brown Top Millet Seed. The percentages of mixes can vary slightly from year to year. Please call our office with any questions (800-552-1027).

Soil Prep

  • When choosing to start a new lawn, remove old vegetation by using a de-thatcher, power rake or tiller to kill the existing vegetation. Rake or drag the area to remove debris and dead grass for a clean area. Ensure the soil is leveled and loosened to allow the seed to have good soil contact once spread on a clean seed bed.
    • If you have an area with heavy weed coverage, we recommend starting fresh by killing and removing the existing vegetation. If you choose to use chemicals, herbicides or fertilizers, you must check with the product’s manufacturer prior to planting new seed to ensure the proper waiting period. 
  • When overseeding an existing area, mow your lawn at the lowest setting and bag the clippings. Rake or drag any areas that have dead thatch or debris.

 

Seeding

  • Seeding Rate: 2 - 3 lbs. per 1,000 sq. ft. or 100-150 lbs. per acre
  • Overseeding Rate: 1 - 2 lbs. per 1,000 sq. ft. or 50 - 100 lbs. per acre
  • Spread at the recommended rate based on total area and whether it is bare ground or pre-existing vegetation.
  • Spreader Settings: There is not any one setting that applies for all brands of spreaders. We recommend reviewing the seed settings chart that came with your spreader or contact the manufacturer directly. Ensure you are choosing a seed on the list by the manufacturer that closely resembles the seed you are choosing to plant.
    • If you have any concerns on what setting you should use, we recommend always starting with the smallest option then adjusting it to match the recommended seeding rate.

 

Fertilizer

  • Grass like all living things need food to survive. Food for grasses is fertilizer. We recommend fertilizing every 3 - 4 months with Hancock's 16-04-08 Lawn & Pasture Fertilizer. Our 16-04-08 Lawn and Pasture Fertilizer is custom blended to provide a slow-releasing, water-activated economical fertilizer. Hancock's 16-04-08 Lawn & Pasture Fertilizer can be applied at a rate of 5 lbs. per 1,000 sq. ft. or 250 lbs. per acre. The most probable cause of a declining lawn or pasture is poor nutrition. If you have any concerns about your soil, we recommend getting your soil tested to determine what nutrients you are low in as well as your pH. The results of the soil testing will give you the best information to amend your soil for the best grass growth.

 

Watering Schedule

  • For best results, water your lawn each morning and evening for 30 minutes based on weather conditions, until the new seedlings have reached the height of 3 - 5 inches for lawns or 8 - 20 inches for pasture.
  • Once they have reached that height, water 3 times per week as needed. 
  • For best results, keep the soil moist while not over-watering the area or creating puddles.

 

Germination Time

  • Brown Top Millet - 7 days, under optimal conditions
  • Argentine Bahia - 21 - 30 days, under optimal conditions

 

Mowing Requirements

  • Lawns: Mow at 3 - 5 inches regularly.
  • Pastures: Mow or allow grazing to keep pastures maintained at 8-20 inches.
  • It is very important to keep the newly seeded areas watered and mowed at 3 - 5 inches to prevent the Brown Top Millet from overcrowding or shading out the Argentine Bahia seedlings.

Excellent Value for Price
I highly recommend one of these in your vehicle for emergencies. Don't fall for those handheld cordless ones you see on social media. Those will only inflate 1-2 tires before depleting. You have unlimited power for the plugins and it will inflate at least 4x faster. The AstroAI is compact, lightweight and powerful for its price. Everything folds into its rectangular form factor for easy storage. The UI is simple and to the point. You can easily set the target pressure and it will auto stop. It's also a nice looking design with black and yellow which are common colors for power tools and emergency equipment. If I were being picky, the 2 minor cons that you'll find in other brands are: no option to plug into wall outlet & doesn't come with a case or bag.

Great quality and design! Compact and easy to store in your car for emergencies.
These are handy to keep in your car for emergencies. Now that the weather is getting colder my tire pressure is going down on my car and I got tired of having to drive to a fas station and pay to put a bit of air in my tires (and often times those machines don't even work). I like design of this one with the always on light and the compartment on the back to store everything neatly. It is small and compact so it doesn't take much space to store in your car. It also comes with multiple attachments for various uses. I purchased this one as a gift for a white elephant gift for a family party coming up and hoping it will be a hit! With the great sale price it fit perfectly in the price range that was set.

Noisier than one I have
This does function the way it says it will and is easy to use. I tried it on 2 of my tires and did not like how it did not come off of my valve stem easily, compared to one I have. Seems it could potentially lead to stem damage over time, and when one goes out, your tire, obviously will not hold air (from personal experience). I sent it back and ordered another of the same one I previously purchased which is perfect and want to have a spare...just in case I need to loan one out or whatever. I cannot recommend this since I know there are better, quieter ones.

Great little air pump for the car! Easy to use and versatile!
This is a great little product! You set the psi limit for your object and it stops as soon as it is reached! No guessing about it. I have it in my care for emergencies but so far it has been useful for pumping up the grandkids tires, balls, floats, etc! It has several adapters for different things! Easy to use and fast!!
