Product Information

Tifton 9 Bahiagrass is considered a very durable pasture grass for horses. Tifton 9 Bahiagrass grows faster than regular Pensacola Bahiagrass. Tifton 9 Bahia has more drought tolerance and more frost resistance than Pensacola Bahiagrass.

Hancock Farm & Seed Company first harvested and processed an 100-acre field of Tifton 9 Bahiagrass during the 2009 season. This field was planted with certified Tifton 9 Bahiagrass during 2003. Today we still continue to harvest our Uncertified Tifton 9 Bahiagrass. It is labeled and sold as Pensacola Bahiagrass for legal reasons.

Tifton 9 Bahiagrass is not recommended for lawns due to fast growth during the summer months.

Tifton-9 is an improved Pensacola Bahiagrass variety that was bred and developed by Dr. Glen Burton, Agricultural Research Service, U.S.D.A., and the Georgia Coastal Plain Experiment Station. It has several improved characteristics. Tifton-9 produces 30 to 40% more forage per year than the old Pensacola variety from which it was developed.

Tifton-9, as well as other Pensacola types, have more frost and cold tolerance than Argentine or Paraguay 22. Thus, it may produce more growth at the beginning and end of the growing season. Besides producing more forage, Tifton-9 is much more vigorous in the seedling stage, has longer leaves, and is equal to Pensacola in digestibility. The increased seedling vigor should provide for more rapid stand establishment and increased ability to compete with weeds. Grazing information is somewhat limited, but in one study steers made good weight gains on Tifton-9. This indicates that it is palatable and acceptable to cattle.


Tifton 9 Bahia grass is commonly used for pastures and hay production across the southern United States including: Florida, Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina, Tennessee, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, Oklahoma, Northeast Texas, and Southwest California.

It's no secret why Tifton 9 Uncertified Bahia Grass Seed is so popular. The answer is "because it works"! Here are a few of our favorite reviews from clients who have planted Tifton 9 Uncertified Bahia Grass Seed:

"So far So good!" exclaims Margaret P. "We planted this for our horse pasture. It is a new pasture with no grass. We planted the seed a little over a week ago, and have little grass sprigs throughout! Very excited to see the end result!"

*Product packaging may appear different than what is pictured.~~~

Broadcast 25-50 lbs. per acre (25 lbs. takes 12 - 24 months to fully sod the pasture). 

Overseeding rates depend on the amount of established or existing grass in the pasture area. Common applications for overseeding are 10 - 25 lbs. per acre.

 

Land preparation and planting: 
An ideal site on which to plant Tifton 9 would be new ground, or areas where Bahiagrass has never been planted. Next would be fields that have been in row crops, or have been cultivated for several years. These sites should have almost no Bahiagrass plants and relatively low populations of Bahiagrass seed in the soil. This should result in a fairly pure stand of Tifton 9 plants. Old pastures that need to be renovated are a great option for Tifton 9. These may have been planted to Bahiagrass, or have been infested with Bahiagrass through movement of seed by animals from one area to another. The end result is that something needs to be done to eliminate the Bahiagrass plants present, and also reduce the population of seed in the soil. In order to convert an old Bahiagrass pasture to Tifton 9, the following land preparation and planting procedures are suggested:

Plow with a moldboard plow. This will bury much of the surface weed seed too deep to germinate.

Plant an annual forage crop, such as Pearl Millet or Sorghum-Sudangrass, during the warm season, and a small Grain, Ryegrass, or Clover, during the cool season. The growing of annual crops with associated cultivation helps to eliminate any remaining Bahiagrass plants and reduces the population of Bahiagrass seed near the soil surface.

Bahiagrass can be planted from February through July in most areas of Florida. Plantings made from late March through May can be lost due to drought, especially in South Central Florida. Thus it may be wise to avoid planting during this time period. Plant on a clean-tilled seedbed that has been prepared by using a heavy cutting disc, or other suitable tillage tool, plus a finishing disc that leaves a smooth surface free of trash.

If possible, use a cultipacker-type seeder or some other precision seeder in order to place all of the seed at a uniform depth. Seed should be planted at 1/2 to 3/4 inch deep.

Durable - Works for my Mac and my kids’ computers
My kids are constantly losing my MacBook charger and they’re expensive! So on Prime Day I treated myself and bought this charger - which I told them they’re never ever allowed to touch under any circumstances. The brick is pretty big compared to what I’m used to. The cord length is fine and it charges my MacBook quickly just like I wanted it to! I was really pleasantly surprised by how legit this charger is for the price, given how costly they can be. It seems really sturdy. Turns out, this charger also fits the Chromebooks that all 3 of my kids use for school, and whose chargers are always missing. So “my” charger is once again a shared charger. But it gets all 3 Chromebooks and my laptop fully charged in a night. Nice, easy, durable product for a great price.

Sunveza MacBook Pro Charger: A Game-Changer on a Budget!
Man, where was this Sunveza charger when I first got my MacBook Pro? I'm the type who'd forget my head if it wasn't attached, and yup, I did it – forgot my charger on my first day bringing the new MacBook to the office. Enter Sunveza with its high-efficiency and surprisingly affordable solution. First off, this thing charges FAST. Talking about going 0 to 80% in what feels like a blink. And the compatibility? Spot on. Whether you're rocking a MacBook Pro, Air, or even an iPad, this charger's got you. Plus, the multiple security features? A major bonus. Peace of mind knowing my gadgets are safe from overcharging or short-circuits. Now, if we're comparing aesthetics, yeah, it doesn't have that Apple "heft." But honestly, does that matter? It's like comparing a sports car by the weight of its keys. What matters is performance, and Sunveza delivers. I stumbled upon this gem after a less-than-stellar experience with a pricey off-brand from Target. Sunveza's charger is just the right size, doesn't sag from the outlet, and feels just right. The only tiny hiccup? The cable can be a smidge finicky sometimes, needing a gentle push to snugly fit. But considering the overall value and the fact that I could always grab a new cable if needed, it's a minor gripe. In short, if you're in the market for a MacBook charger that won't break the bank and performs like a champ, Sunveza's got your back. Highly recommend! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 EDIT: Wow okay... so things were working great for several months but then I started having issues with this charger and it would intermittently start and stop charging. The charger block itself would also get painfully hot to the touch. I had been using this product for less than a year when I started having these issues. I tested this out with other devices and outlets and witnessed the same behavior. I also took my MacBook to the Apple Store and they informed me that my battery was damaged, likely because of this charger. In light of this, I can no longer recommend the Sunveza charger.
