Cocksfoot (Dactylis glomerata) 1000 Seeds Per Gram

Product Code:  dagl1000

From Only: £2.51 Ex VAT


Cocksfoot (Dactylis glomerata) is a native perennial, widely used for hay and as a forage grass. Cocksfoot is one of the West`s most popular pasture grasses because of its productivity, palatability and tolerance to grazing. Its only weakness is its inability to grow well in the alkaline soils found in sagebrush country.

It grows to 20–120 centimetres tall, with leaves 20-50 cm long and up to 1.5 cm broad, and a distinctive tufted triangular flowerhead 10-15 cm long. It has a characteristic flattened stem base which distinguishes it from many other grasses.

We sell our Cocksfoot (Dactylis glomerata) seeds per gram; customers should be aware that when ordering more than one gram of Cocksfoot seeds the entire amount will be bagged together to reduce unnecessary packaging.

Complete Product Information for Cocksfoot (Dactylis glomerata) 1000 Seeds Per Gram
When grown for seed, the same field can be harvested for five or six years, the greatest yield being obtained the third and fourth seasons. The yielding power is considerably increased if the field is top-dressed with manure every year. Orchard Grass is ready to cut for seed three or four weeks after it has flowered. To determine the proper time, beat some heads in the palm of the hand. If a small quantity of seed shakes out, it is ready to harvest. Cutting too early means inferior quality. It can be harvested with an ordinary grain binder and the sheaves, which must be rather small, should be set three to five together in small shocks. They should be left to cure from two to six weeks, depending on the weather, and then threshed without stacking.
