Product Information

Texas Tough Bermuda Grass Seed is used for pasture grazing and hay production in the warm climates and transition climates of the United States. Texas Tough is a mixture of Giant, Common and turf type Bermudagrass seed. Texas Tough was developed for its drought tolerance, insect resistance, high forage and hay yields.

Mixture:

33% Giant Bermuda (Hulled)
33% Majestic (Un-Hulled)
33% Forage Max Plus

When to plant: Texas Tough is a warm season forage grass, utilized for grazing or haying. Plant Texas Tough during spring and summer, when soil temperatures are consistently above 65 degrees F. The optimal soil temperature for germination and root growth of Bermudagrass is 75 to 80 degrees F.

Site Selection: Plant Texas Tough in full sun and well-drained soil in Texas and across the southern states where Bermudagrass is currently grown. Proper drainage is essential for successful establishment and the development of mature, healthy forage.

Seedbed Preparation: Loosen soil to a depth of six inches by discing. Level area to proper grade with approximately 1/2 in. pulverized soil at the surface. Prior to seeding, a soil test is recommended. Results of this test will determine fertilizer and other amendments needed. Add lime as needed to establish a minimum 6.0 soil pH.

Seeding rate for new pasture and overseeding applications: Plant 10 lbs. of Texas Tough per acre for new pasture applications. More seed may be needed when stands are established early or late in the season to ensure full coverage.

Texas Tough may be overseeded into your existing stand of Bermudagrass, such as Coastal, to improve its overall forage quality or to repair damaged areas of seeded Bermudagrass and vegetative Bermudagrass varieties. The suggested renovation-seeding rate is 5 lbs. per acre. For bare areas, use the new pasture application-seeding rate. If the turf is in very poor condition, or the damaged areas very large, total removal of the existing grasses before seeding Texas Tough is recommended, for maximum stand uniformity and overall forage performance.

When overseeding into an existing pasture, care must be taken to ensure adequate seed to soil contact. Herbicides with no soil action may be applied to eliminate any undesirable grasses before seeding. Follow label instructions for usage, and observe the required waiting period, if any, before seeding. Pastures can be aerated or disked to remove accumulated thatch areas during germination and the early establishment phase prior to first grazing or haying.

Planting: Care must be taken not to cover the seed with too much soil—no more than 1/4 in. of soil covering the seed is recommended. Effective methods include broadcasting by hand or using seed spreaders, followed by light roller or dragging. Because of the high seed count of Texas Tough per lb., the seed should be mixed thoroughly with dry sand at a ratio of 5 parts sand to one part seed, and the spreader opened only 1/16 to 1/8 in.

Soil moisture around the seed is necessary for about 1 to 2 weeks. The seedbed should be kept moist during germination. Once established, less frequent, deep moisture encourages deep root growth.

Germination: Texas Tough has very good seeding vigor. Under ideal conditions, germination begins within 7 to 10 days. Again, soil moisture is very important during the germination period. Allow 14 to 28 days after the first seedlings emerge for complete germination, fertilize per soil test once the seed has germinated.
Under ideal conditions, full coverage is attained 4 to 6 weeks after seeding and normal moisture. If planting is early or late in the season, more time may be needed for establishment.

The pasture is ready for the first cutting or grazing approximately 8 to 10 weeks after seeding, or when the grass has grown 14 to 18 inches tall. Minimum recommended mowing height is 4 in. After the first cutting for hay, mow every 28 days and add fertilizer each time.

Winter Overseeding: Winter overseeding of dormant Bermudagrass may be done for year-round pasture. It is not generally recommended on immature pasture (less than 6 to 8 months of age). Late season plantings and newly established Bermudagrass may be damaged by allowing Ryegrass to get too tall, leaving it unable to compete with the Ryegrass species during the spring transition.

My dog's favorite
I have a 4 year old german shephard and this is her favorite ball. She often loses them and has to resort to a previous ball she used to play with, but when I line up several balls she chooses this one every time. When I tell her to search for her ball so we can go play she passes by all the other balls we have for her to look for this type. It has gotten so bad that I buy these in multiples because we play so much outside that she looses them and I almost have to order her to pick up an old ball when she can't find this one just so we can go outside. She loves to chew on this ball, I know that she could destroy it if she wanted to but she just likes to half bite on it. My dog loves this because the holes on each end make a whistle sound when you through it and she has become great at tracking it through the air via the whistle, I like it because it glows in the dark. So, in the early morning when she goes outside to the bathroom I charge the ball with a flashlight and I can watch her walk around the yard (we live out in the country and it is mostly dark all around us). Best ball for me and my dog.

Heavy chewer approved.
Style: Ball, Size: Medium (Pack of 1)
My pomsky will destroy a toy in minutes. Ropes, and the "indestructible" nylon type stuffs are no match for my furry shark. This ball has stood up to him like David. He loves the crunch and it is so much more tolerable than a squeaker. These will be a staple in his toy box - Chuckit toys are really the most durable dog toys I have found in three years.
