Growing PRG in the office, seed samples?

[ReelOlives]

So a while back I thought wow my desk looks a little sad and might need a desk plant... Why not plant some grass!

I threw some Perennial Ryegrass in a mug with some Miracle Grow and within 3 weeks it is produced a very lush desk plant!

Now, I want to plant some Turf Type tall Fescue and Kentucky Bluegrass and have a nice little display of the different types on my desk. Does anyone know where I could find seed samples? I only need a handful but would prefer not to buy a 5lb bag...

Any lead on the seed samples helps!

Thanks!

Detaching that is going to be a PITA.

@Drys Yeah - I am thinking about core aerating with a pen. I might be able to dethatch with a fork.

Make sure you pull the pen apart and put a slit in the side. You want to at least pull 2-3cm cores. Spike aeration will just compact all that soil!

I can send you some penning tall fescue too if you like. PM me your address and is there a best way to mail seeds?

I got Bewitched and Black beauty ( Fescue/Rye/KBG) . I got a whole bunch of common Bermuda seed in my neighbors yard .

Somebody check my math...

For that size container, spoon feeding at a rate of 0.25 lbs N/M, you would apply approximately 35 milligrams of 46-0-0 urea.

To be more precise, according to my measurements to get .25N in a 32oz spray bottle(dollar tree!), he needs to dissolve 0.135 lbs of Urea. Then he can just spritz the plant a few times once a week It wont be precise, but pretty close.

I was wondering when I would need to put down my first application of Milorganite. I need to transplant the PRG to a new container that helps with drainage.

I have some left over SS1000 Tall Fescue Blend (https://www.seedsuperstore.com/catalog/ ... scue-blend) if you want - PM me your info.

You should get some bentgrass and make a coffee cup putting green.

That would be pretty cool. I would need to get a roller for when I double cut double roll.
