Riverbank Wild Rye Grass growing instructions
But before you can grow this type of grass, you'll need to know how to grow it. Here are three steps to help you get started on your backyard project.
Step 1: Prepare the Soil
The first step in growing riverbank wild ryegrass is preparing the soil before planting. That means adding compost and peat moss to your soil, both of which have significant benefits for growing this kind of turfgrass. Once the ground has been prepared, you're ready for step two, which is planting the seeds.
Step 2: Planting Seeds
Once you've prepared your soil and added a bunch of nutrients to it, it's time to plant the seeds in there. The best period to plant these seeds is when they are dormant to not dry out during the process. You'll want to sow them into different stages until they reach maturity, and you don't see any signs of yellowing or brown leaves on them anymore. You will want to make sure that all your plants are at least one foot apart, if not more so that they can take in enough sunlight without being crowded by other plants around them.
