SEEDING AND OVERSEEDING Tall fescue prefers warmer soil MAINTENANCE Titanium 2LS natural dark color, density and pest for germination, typically 55oF to 58oF. In the Transition zone this resistance minimize the need for extensive maintenance. Generally means early spring and early fall. Further north, late spring and late 2 to 3 pounds of nitrogen as part of a balanced fertilizer applied an- summer is preferred. Titanium 2LS should be sown at a rate of 6 to nually is all that’s required. Cutting heights should range between 2 9 lbs per 1000 sq ft (275 to 400 lbs per acre), lightly covered with to 3 inches. Under controlled conditions heights down to 1 inch can soil and kept moist until after the first cutting. Maximum density is be satisfactorily maintained. achieved by planting with a slicer/seeder or following aerification, and with the application of a starter fertilizer. First mowings are generally within three weeks, or when plants first reach 3 in. in height. Overseed existing tall fescue at a rate of 225 to 300 lbs per acre.
