Trugreen Reviews How to Seed a Lawn

In order to make sure the landscape is both functional and aesthetic, it is important to know how to plant lawn seeds. These seeds won’t propagate simply because you ask them nicely. Indeed, leaving them on their own to grow will only cause you to develop weeds.

How beautiful and healthy your lawn will be depends entirely on how you lay the seeds out on the ground. Some people start from seed, which is the most basic and economical method. Others prefer sod, which means you instantly have a functional lawn. It also means that you don’t have a lot of choice in terms of mixing your grass types, however.

If you do decide to seed, it is important that you have properly prepared your soil so that it is ready to accept the seeds. It is important to see the soil as the living organism that it is. It is there to supply all the plants and other microorganisms with nutrients, water, support, drainage, and more. Hence, if you don’t start with a healthy soil, you will never end up with a healthy lawn either. Plus, you need to think long term. If your soil is bumpy, then your lawn will be as well and this will make it very difficult for you to mow it later on in life.

Next, you have to find the right type of seed mixture. You can choose to pick just a single type of grass seed, in which case you should pick something native to the area and that is suitable for the level of shading and sunlight you have in your garden. However, most people prefer to mix different types of seeds together, thereby ensuring that they develop something that is both unique and quite a lot stronger in terms of fighting the elements, pests, diseases, and weeds.

Seeding has to be done according to the distribution advice that should be listed on your packet. This will also indicate when during the year you should seed, as well as the distance between the different seeds. Do choose a type that has at least an 85% germination rate so that you don’t start your new lawn with patches. Last but not least, check the instructions on your mixture in terms of how often and how much you should water it. Don’t forget, however, to stay off the grass until it has established itself.
