Mountain View Seeds Midwest Mix has been developed to help maximize your lawns performance while minimizing the need for excessive inputs. It is a-list approved, which means it has been tested by universities and the NTEP (national turfgrass evaluation program) to combine high quality turf and low-input performance, to give you added benefits such as reduced watering while needing less chemical and fertilizer inputs. This means a healthy, dark green lawn without the time, effort and costs of your everyday seed. We use top-rated turf-type tall fescue, kentucky bluegrass, and perennial ryegrass to help prevent a common and frustrating occurrence, Summer burnout. For superior establishment the seed in this bag is coated with our watergard nutrition package, which helps provide the seed with the nutrients it needs to get off to a healthy start while also helping to prevent the seed from drying out and failing to establish. Watergard NP provides the seed 2 x the water retention to help create a safety net in case you miss a day of watering.
