How to Use:
- Prepare the Area: Thoroughly dig over the area intended for seeding, removing all stones and weeds to ensure a clean seedbed.
- Level and Firm: Level the area and then firm it by treading on it evenly. Rake the area in one direction, then repeat the process in the opposite direction until you achieve a firm, even seedbed.
- Watering: Before seeding, water the area thoroughly, ensuring the soil is moist but not waterlogged. This helps create an ideal environment for seed germination.
- Sowing: Evenly distribute the seed over the prepared area at a rate of 35g/m2. For accurate application, consider using a spreader or evenly broadcasting the seeds by hand.
- Covering the Seed: Lightly rake over the seeded area to cover the seeds with a thin layer of soil. This helps protect the seeds and promotes good seed-to-soil contact, aiding germination.
Where to Use:
- New Lawns: Ideal for creating new lawns, providing fast establishment of grass varieties known for their natural vitality and durability.
- Overseeding: Suitable for overseeding existing lawns to fill in thin or bare patches and enhance overall lawn density and health.
When to Apply:
- Sowing Time: Best sown from March to September, during the growing season when soil temperatures are favorable for seed germination and establishment.
- Watering and Maintenance: Keep the seeded area consistently moist until the new lawn is well-established, typically within a few weeks after sowing.
Cautions:
- Avoid Overcrowding: Ensure even distribution of seeds to prevent overcrowding, which can inhibit proper growth and establishment of the grass.
- Watch for Weeds: Monitor the newly seeded area for weed growth and promptly remove any weeds that appear to prevent competition with the grass seedlings.
- Protect from Pests: Take precautions to protect the newly seeded area from birds, rodents, and other pests that may disturb or consume the seeds.
- Avoid Heavy Traffic: Minimize foot traffic on the newly seeded area until the grass is well-established to prevent soil compaction and damage to emerging seedlings.
- Storage: Store the seed in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and moisture, to maintain its viability until ready for use.
