Matt (verified owner) –
Fall 2020 I upgraded my overseed program from grasses like Titan RX to this blend, along with some other more specific cultivars from United Seeds to supplement in problem areas. The years I have spent fine tuning a watering and feeding program with an inferior (though still excellent) seed from the Titan line really paid off this spring after a heavy overseed. WOW this Super Turf is good seed. I now have 15,000 square feet of athletic field-quality turf that is so thick and so dark that it looks artificial. My turf has gotten the slow drive-bys in the past but this season is a different level.
I study the NTEP reports every year so was very excited to find a company offering the listed seeds to a lowly DIY-er like me.
People ask how I get my lawn looking so good…I now tell them it all started with picking the perfect seed from the NTEP at United Seeds. Customer for life.
