Centipede Grass (Eremochloa ophiuroides) was introduced into the United States from seed found in the baggage of Frank Meyer, a USDA plant explorer who disappeared on his fourth trip to China in 1916. It was initially used for low-maintenance cemeteries and eventually for lawns, during and after the Great Depression, and is sometimes referred to as "lazy man's grass," or "poor man's grass."

Adaptation

Hancock's Centipede Grass Seed is very popular for home lawns in the Southeastern United States, including Florida, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, Georgia, South Carolina, Louisiana, and Arkansas.

Coated Seed vs Raw Seed

Coated seed contains a clay-based surrounding shell that increases moisture retention and helps to reduce insect or fowl consumption. Coated seed contains approximately 50% coating weight, or inert weight, per pound of seed. Coated Centipede Seed is also easier to see after it is applied. Raw seed is pure, raw seed just like it sounds. Raw features no fillers, coatings or treatments.

For new lawns, seed Hancock's Centipede Grass Seed any time it can be prepared, except in late summer. Planting in Florida should be accomplished no later than the end of August due to the chance of frost damage to young seedlings. Early Spring plantings should include 1-2 lbs. of Winter Rye Grass as a cover grass per 1000 sq. ft.

Prepare the seedbed by tilling the soil. Remove existing grass and debris. Apply 10-15 lbs. of a complete fertilizer per 1,000 sq. Do not use a weed-and-feed fertilizer product! Distribute seed evenly over soil surface by using a cyclone-type spreader. Mix with sand for best results and even distribution. Plant by raking the seed into the soil to a depth of no more than 1/2 in. Keep the seedbed moist constantly for two to three weeks after planting. Hancock's Coated Centipede Grass Seed should germinate in 2 to 3 weeks. After germination, water only as needed.

Maintain your lawn by mowing at 1.5 to 2 in. in height. Cut no more than 1/3 of the leaf off during one mowing. Use sharp mower blades.

Fertilizer should be applied to Hancock's Centipede Grass in 1 to 3 applications, from spring green-up through fall. Do not apply nitrogen too early in the growing season (particularly in north Florida) or subsequent frosts may damage the grass. Likewise, don't fertilize too late in the year, as this can slow regrowth the following Spring. If applying water-soluble fertilizers at the lower application rate, it will take more applications to apply the total amount of fertilizer needed for the year than if applying a slow-release fertilizer form.

Depending on the existing vegetation, seed rates should be adjusted to fit your specific needs. Higher seed rates will increase coverage on existing lawn applications.

Watch with day & date
Nice watch, light in weight. Looks good with the grey background. Has the day and date too, just wish they were a little larger, for easier reading.

Es muy elegante
Color: 3316:white band white dial
The OUPINKE Automatic Two-Tone Skeleton Watch is a stylish timepiece that blends luxury design with mechanical craftsmanship. Its gold and silver stainless steel construction gives it an elegant, premium look suitable for both formal and casual occasions. Design & Appearance: This watch stands out with its two-tone bracelet and gold-accented bezel, creating a bold and sophisticated aesthetic. The dial features crystal-style hour markers, multiple subdials, and a visible skeleton window at the bottom that showcases the internal movement. These details add a high-end feel often associated with more expensive watches. Movement & Performance: It uses an automatic mechanical movement, which means it winds itself through the motion of your wrist—no battery required. This is a major advantage for watch enthusiasts who appreciate traditional watchmaking. The watch also includes useful calendar features such as day, date, and month indicators. Build Quality: The stainless steel case and bracelet feel solid and durable. The polished finish enhances its luxury appeal, although like most polished watches, it may show fingerprints or small scratches over time. Comfort: Despite its robust design, the watch is comfortable to wear. The bracelet is well-balanced, and the clasp keeps it secure on the wrist.

Exceptional quality
I have only had the watch for a few days, but Oupinke watches are very high quality. It keeps time very well and serves as an attention grabber. Great value for the money. It isn't easy to determine where it was made, but it is a Chinese company. Don't stop there with preconceived ideas about cheap products and low quality from China. These watches are exceptional, high-end, and dedicated to creating a brand that endures and stands for quality, rather than simply turning a profit. I would put this watch against those that cost 3-4 times as much. If you are a watch enthusiast, they are worth adding to your collection.

Higher quality than I expected, especially for the price. I have recieved lots of compliments, but I have never told anyone what I paid for it. I use it for a daily wear, and when I go out for dinner.
