Pure Seed Testing- Week 3

Continued to traffic the low-mow ryegrass plots daily, to prepare for Field Day. Above, you can see 
    the difference in the trafficked and untrafficked halves of the plot of a European variety of perennial ryegrass. Below is a picture of the low-maintenance perennial ryegrass that I have been trafficking. The drought stress is beginning to be seen here




This week began harvest 2025. We began harvesting Kentucky Bluegrass Seed Yield Trials and crosses. Once the plots are cut, the seed heads are placed in a burlap bag and hung in a greenhouse to dry


Picked up a client from the airport on Tuesday and joined him on his tour of the farm. While on the tour, I learned more about this particular plot of fine fescue, which was recently named Powder Blue. It is being bred and trialed at Pure Seed
