For Best Results…

1. Prepare the soil – Loosen the top couple of inches of soil, remove debris, fertilise with a decent starter fertiliser, avoid using weed killers before and after sowing.
2. Sow the grass seed – Spread evenly by hand in small areas or use a seed spreader for larger areas, disperse evenly and not too close together, ideally 5-10mm deep in the soil.
3. Cover – Lightly cover your seeds with 0.25 inch of top soil. We also recommend laying Frost Fleece over your seeds and top soil to act as a floating mulch. This will provide protection from wind, insects, pests and bird damage whilst allowing rainfall and light to pass through. This will ultimately improve growing conditions and germination.
4. Water – Water lightly 1-2 times daily (preferably in the evening) for 3-4 weeks – avoid watering when it rains.
5. Cut – Cut grass when 3-4 inches long.

Germination will vary from 5 days to 3 weeks depending on conditions. At the time of sowing, minimum soil temperature must be 7-8 degrees Celsius. Temperature and moisture are key, so the warmer it is – combined with regular watering – the quicker germination will be. If you’re sowing in optimum conditions, consider reducing the sowing rate. For maximum results, we recommend sowing our Premium Grass Seed in the spring or autumn.For shaded areas, sow at the same rate. No need to use a higher quantity of seed. Although our Premium Grass Seed has tolerance for shade, you should be prepared to seed these areas more frequently.

Storage:

Store grass seed in a dry area in an unopened or sealed container for up to 18 months.
