Blue Resilience in SHADE?

Hey Everyone. I'm in Central NY, thus a cold region. My half acre lawn I've been prepping weed killing (stopped weed killing two weeks ago) and planning to reseed but that back 1/3 is shaded. I am using Blue Resilience on the ret of the lawn but thought I'd do Blue Shadow in that shaded area. I called Twin City and they said Resilience will do well in the shade. Is that anyones experience here that tried? Or should I just do the Blue Shadow in that part? Right now it thin back there and I killed off the moss and soil tested which showed ok.

I will be seeding with a slit seeder.

Update to my Saga with electrician using #6 Copper NM-Bon a 48 amp EV charger (should be THHN)

What is the code for EV charger wiring? An experienced licensed Electrician install used wire 6/3 type nm-b 600v with a 60-amp circuit for and ev-charger so I can eventually pull 48-amps. That wire indicates, according to NEC, 55-amp breaker maximum, thus places charger down to 44-amp. Do the area electricians use "round-up" method for justifying it? I've read it's kind of a grey area and one electrician I spoke within a different state say competition does it this was but he sticks with THHN wire or MC wire. Is Permit really needed in Onondaga county installing these? They didn't pull one. Wanted to gather more info before I ask them about it.

UPDATE: I was told: You can run more than 48 amps through #6 copper if you wanted to. Go to 6 awg wire, then go to THHN. It says 75 amps. Multiply that by 80% and you get 60 amps.

I'm thinking this doesn't apply to nm-B wiring as mentioned in my original post and I'll push for a more accurate response to my email.
