Hancock's Common Bermuda Grass is a low-maintenance option for those looking to establish new lawn, pasture, or other turf projects. This blend will grow in tough soils, and can weather traffic from any feet; human or animal.~~~

Hancock's Common Bermuda Grass Seed makes an excellent low-maintenance, drought-resistant lawn or pasture grass. Common Bermuda Grass is a crawling turf, with runners providing great traffic tolerance, wear-resistance and fine leaf texture with medium green color.

Hancock's Common Bermuda Grass grows well in very sandy and poor soil types, where other grasses have trouble. Hancock's Common Bermuda Grass is commonly used for lawn, pasture, turf, erosion control, parks, and landscaping applications across the country.

One of the aspects that makes Common Bermuda a popular option for creating a new lawn is its low-maintenance requirements, and its aggressive growing tendencies. Because of the quick spread of Common Bermuda Grass, it often crowds out weeds that can become a nuisance for those trying to maintain a lawn. The only exception will be during the Winter months, when Common Bermuda Grass naturally goes dormant because of the colder weather. At this point, due to the decrease in growth, weeds will be able to "make a break for it." At the same time, those keeping gardens that border the lawn will need to keep an eye on how quickly the Common Bermuda Grass spreads; it will frequently get through cracks in retaining walls and continue growing anywhere it can find healthy soil! 

Adaptation:

Hancock's Common Bermuda Grass Seed thrives in tropical regions, subtropical regions, and transition regions. This includes the states of Florida, Georgia, South Carolina, Alabama, North Carolina, Tennessee, Mississippi, Kentucky, Arkansas, Louisiana, Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, Southern California, and Hawaii.

Hulled Seed vs. Unhulled Seed

The process of hulling refers to the process of removing the outer shell of a Bermuda Grass seed. Hulled seed has no outer shell when sold to you, whereas Unhulled seed still has its outer covering. There are benefits to both methods, and you should consider which option makes the most sense for your situation before purchasing Common Bermuda. Hulled seed is much more efficient for planting, requiring much less seed per acre or 1,000 sq. ft. However, planting Hulled Seed also means you will need to adhere to a more specific planting time to ensure proper germination. Because of its extra layer of protection, Unhulled seed is more flexible, and it will germinate when conditions are good. Do not confuse "coating" and "hulling." Hancock Seed can add coating to either Hulled or Unhulled Seed in order to boost its germination rate. This will not detract from a seed's Hulled state.

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 Hancock's Common Bermuda Seed (Coated and Unhulled) is also easier to see after it is applied. Raw seed features no fillers, coatings, or treatments.

Rave Reviews

It's no secret why Hancock's Common Bermuda Seed (Coated and Unhulled) is so popular. The answer is "because it works"! Here are a few of our favorite reviews from clients who have planted Hancock's Common Bermuda Seed (Coated and Unhulled):


"I am very happy with my purchase and my experience thus far has been fantastic," says Shirley P. "The seeds are filling in my holes in the lawn very well and the grass looks good and healthy. I am so satisfied that I will be purchasing the product again real soon."

"Received my seed, distributed seed accordingly and had gemination within 10 days, with 99% success!" writes Collin P. "Have ordered another 50lb bag for overseeding in the future. Would definitely recommend Hancock Seed Company and will be a repeat customer."

"Hancock Seed delivery was fast and packaged very nicely," says Joe. M. "They were helpful is telling me how and when to plant, now just waiting for some warmer days."

And our favorite from Bruce H., who sums up what we aim for the Hancock Experience to be: "Good shipping, Good product, Good results!"

Lawn Applications

For new lawns, plant 1-2 lbs. of seed per 1,000 sq. ft.

For lawn fertilization, apply 5-10 lbs. of 16-04-08 slow release fertilizer per 1,000 sq. ft., four times a year (late Spring, mid-Summer, late Summer, and early Fall) for the first two years. Apply 5 lbs. per 1000 sq. ft. two times (mid-Summer, and late Summer) a year after a fully-established lawn has been accomplished.

Although Bermuda Grass is adapted to thrive in areas where temperatures are high, it can struggle during periods of low rainfall where soil moisture is on the low side. When soil moisture is low, circular patches of brown grass can form, a condition commonly referred to as "Brown Spot." This most frequently happens during both the Spring and Fall, when daytime temperatures are warm and then drop to cooler places in the evening. The best way to prevent Brown Spot is through an annual, moderate application of fertilizer, as well as weekly irrigation during these seasons. Watering the lawn should occur during the early morning hours so that the grass dries quickly during the day, preventing fungal problems.

Pasture Applications

For new pastures, plant 15-30 lbs. of seed per acre. For erosion areas, plant 25-50 lbs. per acre.

For pasture fertilization, apply 250-350 lbs. of 16-04-08 slow release fertilizer per acre, three times a year (late Spring, mid-Summer, and early Fall). Animals that are grazing will damage the Bermuda grass if the pasture is not properly fertilized annually. The grass must be provided with adequate nutrients to compete with the animals.

Work great, inexpensive, but…pic just a tad different
Color: Glitter Pink/Black
These work well, were worth the price, and made good stocking stuffers. I took off 1 star, because they appeared somewhat different from the photo. The photo made the glitter ones looked like they had stars as part of the pattern (like a night sky or outer space), but it seems like that effect was added to the photo to enhance the glittery appearance. They are, in fact, very sparkly and not very celestial, so they were just a tad more ‘girly’ than I was expecting. Nothing wrong with glitter and glam—just different from what I thought I was getting. On a positive note, the glitter is sealed in and doesn’t shed, so you won’t be spreading sparkly escapees for the rest of eternity. (I guess I would give 4.5 stars if I could)

Where have these been all my life?
Color: Glitter Pink/Black, Color: Glitter Pink/Black
I don’t understand why anyone would give this set of little miracles a bad review. I have wasted way too UHC money on too many products that never get my phone completely street and smudge free, especially around the edges where the phone and the case meet. That’s the area I’ve wasted the most time trying to get clean, to no avail. I have spent way too much time wiping the edges and corners over and over, but they never are completely streak-free. I saw these and figured I’d try them; it’d not like I wouldn’t be able to return them if they ended up being a just as useless as everything else I’ve tried, and even if I did forget to send them back, I wasn’t losing a ton of money. The first thing I did when they arrived I pulled one of them out, shoved two fingers under the elastic band, a major selling point for me because it keeps it secure without feeling claustrophobic., and started swirling all around the edges of my phone. And within seconds my phone screen looked brand new. The oily grime stuck in the corners and all along the edges was gone within seconds. Without any cleaning solution too, which I love that it’s an eco-friendly solution to keeping all that grossness off of my phone and tablet screens. I was in the middle of making cupcakes and had the bright idea of smearing a bit of butter on the screen of my tablet to see what happens. The results speak for themselves. And there’s no gross oily residue left on the pad I used to clean my tablet either when I was finished. I’m sure there’s an easy way to clean them…I’ll look into that when the need arises. The only issue I have is that I can’t buy them in an extra large size for cleaning tvs. The small ones will work perfectly, but an extra large one would get rid of every streak, smudge, fingerprint and lint within a few seconds. And you get it clean without any cleaning spray. You don’t even need water. Just open it up and use. I’d buy one to keep behind every tv in my house in a large size! They are the perfect size to keep in your purse or your pocket. I bought the glittery ones; my ADHD brain is immediately drawn to anything that sparkles. And getting four for the price is beyond a great deal. I highly recommend these little wonders if you are like me and hate seeing your grandchildren’s fingerprints smeared all over your tablets screen when they hand it back to you. Or if you reach the same level of frustration I’ve reached whenever I’ve tried to get every bit of oily grossness off of my phones screen. These are going to make great white elephant and last minute Christmas gifts and stocking stuffers. They arrived a day earlier than I expected too. Get these. You won’t regret it. Until you try them and you regret that you can’t get an extra large one for your televisions too!

Hard to hold
Color: Shades of Blue
The straps is really tight, so it is hard to hold and maneuver. Colors are what I expected. The ability to clean screens is OK

Cleans without damaging
Color: Blossom
Great little item for laptops, tablets, phone ,etc. Cleans the screen without any damage. Love the strap which makes it easier to use. The cleaning side is soft and smooth while the strap side is harder and makes it sturdier when cleaning. Another great product from Fintie!
