Wintertime Lawn Tips From College Station Experts

Italian Rye Grass Care For Cool Season Planting

The cool season starts with young plants vulnerable to heat while Italian rye thrives in cold weather. Before sowing this winter grass mow the lawn to an inch and a half, keep seedlings moist, and water as growth begins. Seed appears in about three days if conditions stay moist. rye won’t seed until about 18 inches tall, so replanting next year is needed as roots die each summer per Miss Hatfield.
