  • When to Plant: Recommended planting time is fall and winter when night time temperatures are consistently below 65 degrees.



Seedlings quickly establish a ground cover and are very competitive. Hancock's Ryegrass Seed flowers in late May to early June, and matures between late June to early July.

Hancock's Ryegrass Seed can be used as a cover crop in annual or perennial cropping systems, or as forage, hay, or a nurse crop for legumes and permanent grasses. It can often be grown under conditions where other cover crops fail. It is an excellent choice for soil protection and weed suppression because it establishes quickly and grows throughout the fall and winter.

Hancock's Ryegrass Seed is suitable as a cover crop in grass waterways or riparian areas subject to flooding because it tolerates wet soils and temporary flooding. It is also commonly is used on poor soils, or on sandy or rocky soils, where it normally produces better growth than cereal species do. It is a good choice for fast, temporary cover on exposed areas with minimal seedbed preparation, such as construction and burned areas.

Hancock's Ryegrass Seed has been used successfully as a relay-planted cover crop in both short and tall-statured summer crops. Its smaller seed allows better seed-soil contact under marginal seedbed conditions than with cereal crops, and it is better at emerging from thick harvest residue (e.g., sweet corn). Hancock's Ryegrass is a heavy N feeder and can be used to scavenge N from the soil during the fall and winter, therefore reducing losses caused when rains leach nitrate below the root zone.

Hancock's Ryegrass Seed is GMO-free.

Ryegrass is a cool season variety, plant once nighttime temperatures are consistently 65 degrees and below.

Seeding rates vary depending on the intended use and the seeding technique. In general, relatively high rates of seeding are recommended, despite the relatively small seed size. When used as a cover crop, seeding rates range from 9-40 lbs. per acre. Use higher rates when broadcasting and when soil protection is important.

Suggested fall planting dates are from mid-September until mid-October. Best stand establishment is accomplished when annual ryegrass is drilled 1/2 to 3/4 inch deep into a firm, well-prepared seedbed. Alternative seeding methods that can reduce seedbed preparation but require higher seeding rates are: drill into a rough seedbed prepared by disking, or broadcast over a rough or smooth seedbed and then disk lightly to cover the seed. If the soil is dry, irrigate or plant before a Fall rain.

When relay interplanting, broadcast into a standing summer crop immediately before the final cultivation. Increase irrigation frequency while the Annual Ryegrass is germinating for more even establishment. Annual Ryegrass will germinate on the soil surface if adequate moisture is maintained.

In annual rotations, kill or incorporate Annual Ryegrass during spring with sufficient time for decomposition to occur before planting the summer crop. Excessive dry matter production can interfere with residue management, spring planting, and N availability to the following crop, so Annual Ryegrass usually is killed or incorporated when still somewhat succulent.

Higher rates of herbicide are required to kill Annual Ryegrass than cereal grain cover crops.

Annual Ryegrass often is grown in mixtures with legumes. Annual Ryegrass provides early protection of the soil, suppresses weeds, and acts as a nurse crop when seeded with legumes. However, due to its vigorous growth, Annual Ryegrass may smother companion legumes. Reduce Annual Ryegrass seeding rates to decrease annual ryegrass competition for light, water, and nutrients.

When used in perennial systems such as orchards and vineyards, Annual Ryegrass can reseed itself if mowing schedules permit seed production. If a temporary cover is desired, you should kill, incorporate, or mow Annual Ryegrass before seed is mature.

Annual Ryegrass is likely to tolerate mowing, unless flailed at ground level in very dry conditions, but even then it may survive.

Overseed existing lawns at 1-2 lbs. per 1,000 sq. ft. Overseed existing pasture areas at 25 - 50 lbs. per acre.

Ryegrass is a cool season variety, plant once nighttime temperatures are consistently 65 degrees and below.

Cool toy. Fun for all
Color: Blue
A cool toy. entertainment for the dogs but more so for the dog parents to watch the dogs reaction. Comes with an additional rope just in case, which I loved. Only side note I would say is that the fast mood could be a little faster. My Golden retriever figured out the speed in less than 24 hours and now picks up the toy to try to chew it up, instead of chasing. With him attempting to chew on the toy in the small time I give him, there are no teeth marks yet…this toy appears to be durable. We play in short increments but enjoy the toy.

Fun toy, but not durable for large heavy chewers
Color: Orange, Color: Orange
I bought this for my 80+ pound Goldendoodle, and he absolutely loved it at first. He barked at it, chased it, and it gave him some great exercise and stimulation. It definitely kept his attention and was fun to watch him play with it. Unfortunately, once he was able to get it in his mouth, he chewed the orange end off fairly quickly. The company does include an extra replacement piece, which is actually a great idea and appreciated. However, he ended up chewing that one up too after a few more play sessions. This toy worked well for short-term play and entertainment, but it’s not durable enough for large dogs with strong chewing habits. I think this would be much better suited for small to medium dogs. Great concept, but I would not repurchase for a heavy chewer. Picture of my dog for size reference!! 🫶🐶

Good quality and definitely worth it for energetic dogs.
Color: Orange
The automatic moving and rolling action really grabs my dog’s attention, and the rope adds extra fun for chasing and playing. It helps reduce boredom and keeps my dog mentally stimulated, especially when indoors. The motion activation works well, and it’s a fun and engaging toy overall.

Best Dog (Puppy) Toy I've Found
Color: Orange
This is a fun toy for me as well as my puppies! When it arrived I opened it right away. I was anxious to get my Pup's playing with something that wouldn't require me to play with them. I put it down and it was charged and ready to go. I had no idea what to expect. All three of my Pups were interested in it. (Which is unusual because two of them are Shih Tzu's and don't pay a lot of attention to most toys.) It's safe and really cute to watch. My youngest pup had been playing all day and was tired when I finally took a photo. I can't tell if the video uploaded correctly but if it did you can see how much fun it was. It is very durable and can actually turn itself over and go across the floor. It charges fast and will last a day and a half or two depending how much it's been used. It does go to sleep if no one is playing with it. They furnish you with an extra top and a fresh "rope." I really appreciate how much customer service is done with this item. I will watch for more of their items to purchase.
