Zoysia sod harvest 45 days after planting?!!!

Zoysiagrass is especially well-adapted to East and Southeast Asia. In Thailand, the local variety of manilagrass (Zoysia matrella) grows so well that the time from planting to harvest as sod is only 45 days.

I wrote an article describing the process of zoysia production near Bangkok for the summer 2010 issue of the Hawaii Golf Course Superintendents Association newsletter. You can read the article here.

You can also see the production method in this video on YouTube.
