Grandslam GLD
ProSelect GrandSlam GLD is an A-LIST® approved, dark green perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne) developed for strong Gray Leaf Spot tolerance and improved drought tolerance. GLD refers to these two characteristics: Gray Leaf and Drought tolerant.
Strong Gray Leaf Spot tolerance and improved drought tolerance make GrandSlam GLD particularly relevant where disease pressure and periods of limited water availability can affect turf performance. NTEP testing recorded a Gray Leaf Spot resistance rating of 8.3 and turf quality under drought of 5.2.
Good wear performance and fast establishment support its use on sports turf and other intensively used areas, as well as renovation and overseeding where establishment speed is important. Its dark green color also makes it suitable for golf, lawns and professional landscape applications.
100% Perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne)
- A-LIST® approved – independently recognized for performance within the A-LIST turfgrass program
- Strong Gray Leaf Spot tolerance – recorded 8.3 out of 9.0 in NTEP testing
- Improved drought tolerance – supports turf quality when water availability is limited
- Good wear performance and fast establishment – suited to intensively used turf, renovation and overseeding
For sports turf / residential / commercial, approximately 30-35 g/m² in the early autumn and late spring.
40–60 g/m² for over-seeding dormant Bermuda grass.
Use highest rates in late autumn/winter/early spring.
Keep seedbed moist during germination and establishment. Germinates in 5-8 days with optimal soil temperatures or 21-28 days at low temperatures. Full coverage expected in 6-8 weeks. First mowing recommended when turf reaches approximately 4 cm in height.
For best results, fertilize at annual rate of 20-25 g/m² of nitrogen. Deep, infrequent irrigation is best during cooler months. Increase frequency during the summer months. Reduce irrigation to assist spring transition.
Recommended mowing height of 1 – 4 cm.
