Why Buy Certified Seed?
Why you should buy certified lawn seed:
When you're shopping online it's easy to look for the 'best deal online'. But when it comes to buying lawn seed online you'd best to take your search a little bit deeper. Our advice is to look for certified grass seed if you want quality.
We import and sell only certified grass seed simply because it produces a better lawn. With certification, you get a guarantee of a quality, tested variety of seed that has been produced to Australian Seed Standards, ensuring that the seed buy buy is also free of pests and diseases.
When you buy certified seed you’re buying confirmation that professional standards have been applied to testing and that your seed will germinate and grow to create the lawn you’re after.
Working with suppliers around the world we import the seed that has been tested by specialist turf grass breeders. They test for quality including colour, disease resistance, climate tolerance (drought conditions and frosts) and much more.
Remember, inferior turfgrass seed will never produce a quality looking lawn no matter how much time, effort and money you invest after sowing the seed.
Some tips when you’re looking for certified seed:
- Look for the Australian Seed Federation code of practice label.
- Once youve chosen a variety of seed for your lawn look for a high seed count on the box. Sometimes when companies are looking to lower their costs in production they can include a lot of other lower quality seed which initially grow but then die off as the seasons change and they cant handle the conditions.
- Look for the percentages of the seed youre purchasing. Each variety should be specified and the percentage it makes up included on the packaging.
