GCI Cool Blue vs GCI Turf Type Tall Fescue 

Dont forget that lowes and home depot will sell you seed even if the dates are expired. Not only should you look at the weed seed and other crop percentage look at the dates

15 percent by weight, the the cool blue, but more like 50-50 in actual seeds because fescue seeds are larger

I've used both, video is spot on: Cool Blue appearance is undefeated in ideal conditions If you don't have a well, don't even think about it

Cool blue in my yard and just did my front in cool blue.....I slay the neighborhood in lawn domination!! Lol 🤙🏼🌱👑

I'll have to say the cool blue pops... If you want to dominate from Fall to the first of summer that's the way to go. Happy Wednesday everyone.

I’m glad that Pete/GCI switched to the Mountain View seeds TTTF varieties that spreads and requires less water (A-list varieties), I’ve been using Mountain View seeds for 6 or 7 years and it really is the best seed that I’ve ever used. (I live in the transition zone in VA and have little to no irrigation (above ground/water hose sprinklers).)

I use spreader elite exclusively. Amazing seed. Produces amazing turf.

spot on with the city water and well water. Changed my mind on how to proceed with seed selection

I used the cool blue very happy

Buying the cool blue RIGHT NOW

MR.Ferg guzzles those orange monsters 😅 love your vids buddy

If I lived close to you I'd give you my bag of Spreader Elite since I'm in the process of converting the lawn to Bermuda/Zoysia.

Great video your yard looks great. Thanks for all the tips. It really will it cost you even more due to the drought in Georgia especially the north part it’s been weeks and months since we got any rain more than a couple hours. Thanks.

Love the content!! Great video!

Ive used both - thick and lush dark green not a weed in sight anywhere - using the cool blue now for the partial KBG spreading helps a bit , will never use anything else .

I must say this iam in NJ and this season I've started using next bio stim package and I have not once watered my lawn this summer except for the light watering it gets when applying product and my lawn hasnt turned brown at all ...

Appreciate this video. I reside in Nashville so the summers are crazy. I do like the idea of both. I've inquired in the past about mixing TF and KB. I hear KB repairs spots. I plan to grab a bag this fall. What size bag do recommend for 5000 sq ft lawn?

I tried that Cool Blue and to be honest, didn't like it. Aside from the slow germination of the Kentucky Blue Grass it is not heat tolerant and does poorly in shade areas as well as needs a ton of water because of the shallow roots. It didn't do well here in CT. Was hoping to give Pete more business.

I’ve always wanted to try Pete’s grass seed. I use what’s called TLC fescue which also has spreading capability’s which I can’t really tell if it does. Be cool if you good do a video comparing them

I wouldn't use either honestly. I like GCI but when it comes to their grass seed it's high price for average seed. Heritage offers superior grass seed.

The blue goes dormant, doesn't it. It doesn't die. Just goes dormant.

It's too rich for my blood, Mr Ferg. I use Pennington Rebel seeds, and I just kill the weeds that pop up. One day maybe🤞🏾

Love your videos ! I’m a new subscriber! I was considering triple threat, GCI TTTF or even Jonathan green black beauty (for the variety and I’ve admired the spreading tendencies of KBG- but am not patient enough or attentive enough for its high needs lol). Currently have a mix of fine fescue and tall fescue, maybe some blue mixed in? What would you recommend for most cost effective as well?

Man my first season of growing a lawn, I did Jonathan green ultra black beauty (which is a TTTF and KB blend) and it looked amazing but I had no how much water it needed and I lost a lot of it my first year and I’m not even on city water I just didn’t know how much water was needed

Great video

I have a well and also 1.5 acres in Central PA. How would you handle keeping Cool Blue watered? Not sure I want to spring for an irrigation system for that much lawn. Maybe the answer is TTTF..

it does help brother

My seed is a Mountain View seed mix with a few TTTF ,s and Texas Bluegrass. Im sticking with the Southern Belle Brand , It worked so well in the renovation last year. Time to spice it up a lil and try this blend.

Good video. I'm not sure if the price is worth it or not. I live about 100 miles south of Pete. I've tried Pennington Rebels TTTF, Defiance XRE TTTF and FIVE STAR TTTF. Like you said in NC it takes a lot of water. I live in the country south of Mount Gilead but my well isn't sufficient to use for irrigation. I currently have a mix of TTTF, fine fescue, dallisgrass and other weeds. It's a hard choice of what seed to buy especially due to water costs at $8/1000 gallons and it takes about 6000 gallons to equal 1" rainfall.

What's the difference between cool blue and SPF-30 hybrid?

What is Best for summer heat? Stress. I want to avoid watering due to water bill gets out of control. Thanks

Hey mr.ferguson, quick question, some one asked me today and I couldn't answer the question, so here I am, what are your thoughts on mixing some gci tttf with some Johnathan Green black beauty for some over seeding in a few weeks,

2 years ago I paid 10.85 a pound canadian for kbg. Barenbrug

Is this for the new blends? I went to buy some and it changed from when I looked at it earlier in the summer. It now has "blue tag" and "A List" seed cultivators. I will be trying out the grass seed this fall.

I have hard soil and full sun what type of grass should I use I live in central California

Live in Charlotte, what type of non-liquid fertilizer would you recommend?

Does anyone have alternative suggestions to GCI Tall Fescue? I saw some Elite Tall Fescue Pennington seed at the sod store (Super Sod) . Curious if there are others as good for around the same price.

Toooooooo much talking...got to go...bye
