Product Information

Zenith Zoysia is in the Japonica family, as is Meyer Zoysia, and is similar in many respects, including blade width and color. It is somewhat less and dense, thus making it easier to mow providing a better opportunity for inter-seeding with Tall Fescue for a year-round color. Zenith grows well in full sun or under light shade, and is presumed to have good cold tolerance. Planted shallow on a newly prepared seedbed and watered frequently, Zenith germinates readily, producing a stand of seedlings in as little as 10 days. Like all Zoysias, it grows and spreads slowly, and therefore seeding rates of 1 to 3 lbs. per 1,000 square feet are recommended.

Zenith is a new Zoysia which looks much like Meyer (Z-52) Zoysia, a blade-width similar to Centipede, many Bluegrasses, and some Ryegrasses, but not as wide as most Fescues. It is not as fine-bladed as Emerald Zoysia. No Emerald Zoysia seed are available, and seed harvested from Meyer do not reproduce a true Meyer. Our test plots clearly demonstrate that Zenith produces a higher-quality turf than imported Zoysia seed.

It is recommended for golf courses (fairways, tees, & roughs), parks, athletic fields and home lawns.

Hancock Seed Company does not sell Zoysia mixed with mulch or any other fillers.

For best results, take a soil sample to determine the pH and fertility of the soil, and adjust as recommended. Once the seed is planted at the suggested seeding rate, water frequently to ensure moisture in the top inch of the soil profile but be cautious not to create runoff. Begin the mowing process when seedlings are approximately 3 in. tall at a cutting height of 2 in. Remember to not remove more than 1/3 of the leaf blade when cutting.

Till and level the lawn area, removing sticks, stones and debris. Slope away from house and other buildings. Before tilling, lime according to a soil test to bring soil to pH of 6.0 to 6.5.

Using a drop-type or Cyclone-type spreader, uniformly broadcast on a freshly prepared seedbed, 1 lb. Zenith Zoysia seed per 1,000 sq. ft.. To insure uniformity, spread half the seed in one direction and the remaining half across the area first seeded (half east-to-west, then half north-to-south). Rake very lightly or roll. The seed needs to be in firm contact with the soil, but require light for quick germination and therefore should have very little soil or mulch cover.

Plant during Spring or Summer at a rate of 1 to 3 lbs. per 1,000 sq. ft., or 40 to 80 lbs. per acre. Plant at a depth of 1/8 or less. 

For a quick stand, water as often as necessary, which may be two or three times daily, to keep the surface constantly moist for the first ten days. Thereafter, reduce watering frequency, but water enough to keep good moisture within one inch of the surface.

A second application of a complete fertilizer about 30 days after the seedlings emerge will assist in maturing a turf, and should be all that is needed the first year. Thereafter, a light application after Spring green-up and once in late Summer should suffice. On better soils, little or no regular fertilization is needed to maintain good color and density.

Begin mowing when weed and/or Zoysia seedlings are three inches high and mow as frequently as necessary for good appearance. The best cut-height is 1.5 to 2 in. In full sun, 2 to 2.5 in. In shade, sharp reel mowers produce the most professional looking turf, but an advantage of Zenith is that it will look good when mowed with a rotary cutter if the blade is kept sharp.

Many are satisfied to park their lawn mower and enjoy Zenith's golden brown Winter color. Others want it green and may wish to overseed with Ryegrass or Tall Fescue. To do so, cut one-half in. closer than normal in mid-September, catch the clippings and/or sweep well. Seed and water frequently. Use a heavy seeding ratio because the dense turf will prevent many of the seed from making good soil contact.

Many lawn owners wish to convert to Zenith by simply overseeding. It may or may not work satisfactorily. If you wish to try cut the existing grass as closely as possible. Remove the clippings and as much thatch as practical, and expose as much soil as possible by severe dethatching before seeding. After seeding, water frequently for at least ten consecutive days during warm weather. Using Roundup to kill the existing grass prior to seeding will help.

Do not use any type pre-emergence weed control chemical or weed and feed fertilizer for at least 60 days before seeding Zenith. After seeding do not use any weed control chemical that is not labeled and recommended for Zoysia grasses. 

The most serious disease likely to damage Zenith is Brown Patch (rhizoctonia fungus). Leaf Rust is a lesser problem. Grubs and billbugs (plus moles and crickets in the lower South) are soil-borne insects, which can cause serious damage. Consult your garden store or Extension Service Technician for control recommendations.

They're okay-ish. Not suitable for a lot of liquid.
Size: Regular, Style: 100 Count
I use these for my opossums. They work okay-ish, but I continue to use them for the quantity and price. They're not very large animals. Make sure you are changing them out after a single pee. These really can not handle a lot of liquid. My girls both refused litter training, and so puppy pads are my only option. If your animal has large pees, I do not recommend these because it will not be able to absorb it all, and you're gonna have a mess! Thats the word I have been looking for. They can't absorb a large amount of liquid.

GOOD PRODUCT AND PRICE
Size: Regular, Style: 100 Count
The puppy pee pads are very well made at a good price. I purchased the same size pads with the same count from a competitor of Amazon, and they were more expensive, much thinner and when I tried to unfold them, some would stick together and the pads would rip.

Great for the price
Size: Regular, Style: 50 Count
These puppy pads are actually pretty good for the price I wasn’t expecting anything amazing but they do the job the absorbency is decent and it dries fast enough where my dog isn’t tracking mess everywhere the leak proof backing works most of the time and I haven’t had any major issues with it soaking through I also feel like the attractant helped a little with training because my dog started using them pretty quickly Only thing is if your dog pees a lot or goes near the edge it can leak a little and they are kind of thin compared to more expensive brands plus they slide around since there’s nothing on the bottom to hold them in place Overall I’d still buy them again they’re a good budget option especially for puppies or smaller dogs

Good size but pee leaks through :(
Size: X-Large, Style: 40 Count, Size: X-Large, Style: 40 Count
I have a 13-14 year old dog who is starting to have very frequent accidents in the house despite us taking her outside every couple of hours, she just drinks too much water which doesn’t mesh well with her weakening, old bladder. She tends to have an accident in two areas (the kitchen and right by the front door hallway) so we decided to buy some puppy pads to minimize the mess & aid in cleanup since clearly taking her outside every couple frequently isn’t helping reduce accidents. We chose these because of the size & price, which are both fantastic compared to others. It perfectly fits the two areas she tends to go so we only need to use one per area and to our surprise, she still remembers how to use puppy pads so she adapted quickly. But unfortunately, these don’t hold all of her pee as they are very thin. I just cleaned up the kitchen puppy pad and saw moisture under the pee spot on the pad. So while it does dramatically reduce how much we need to clean up (we were using one paper towel roll every 3 days just for her accidents), we still need to wipe down the floor with pet accident cleaning spray & mop. It’s not that big of an issue but it is still a bit frustrating that they don’t hold fluid well. So keep that in mind if you decide to order these, that you might still need to wipe down the floor under where your puppy/dog pees. We’ll be trying a different brand when we run out of these to see if that’s any better.

Great buy
Size: Giant, Style: 40 Count
These pads are great. Absorbent and leak resistant. Very roomy for my chihuahua to turn in her inconsistent circles before and durable enough for her to "dig" after without ripping or bunching up.
