FAQs

Is this seed coated?

Yes. This Sahara Bermuda product is listed as coated seed. Coating does not change the grass type, so aim for shallow planting and keep the surface consistently moist during establishment.

How much area does a 2 lb bag cover?

At a commonly listed new-lawn rate of 2 lb per 1,000 sq ft, a 2 lb bag is typically used for about 1,000 sq ft. For overseeding at 1 lb per 1,000 sq ft, it can cover up to about 2,000 sq ft. Adjust for site conditions and spreader calibration.

When should I plant Sahara Bermuda grass seed?

Plant from late spring through summer when temperatures are reliably warm and the area gets strong sun. Bermuda establishes best under warm-season conditions.

Will it grow in shade?

Bermuda grass has low shade tolerance. For best results, use it in full sun or only very light shade.

Does Bermuda grass turn brown in winter?

In cooler months, Bermuda (a warm-season turf) typically goes dormant and browns, then greens up again when warm weather returns.
