Challenges Facing Popular Lawn Grasses: Artificial Turf vs Real Grass


Ryegrass
Ryegrass is typically a choice for many homeowners in the northern United States. This grass typically thrives in full sun but struggles in shady areas. Because Ryegrass does not spread through stolons like other grass species, the turf may appear patchy over time. It is recommended to fertilize Ryegrass with nitrogen during growing seasons to maintain lush growth. Unfortunately, many varieties of Ryegrass are drought-sensitive and susceptible to weed issues. A complaint often expressed by homeowners is Ryegrass’ habit of developing an overabundance of rye seed stalks, causing the lawn to appear uneven.
