How to Use:
Best Conditions:
Lawn seed grows best when the soil temperature is consistently around 10—18°C. If conditions stray out of this range, time and rate of germination can be negatively impacted
How to Sow a New Lawn:
Prepare the soil by clearing away any debris and weeds
Dig over the soil, breaking down any lumps and tread the soil to firm it again. Level with a rake
Shake the box to mix up the seeds. Sprinkle in 2 passes at right angles to each other at a rate of 30g/sq. m
Lightly rake into the surface
How to Thicken an Existing Lawn:
Remove any weeds. Mow the lawn closely. If the ground is compacted aerate using a garden fork
Spread Westland Lawn and Turf Dressing to fill any shallow holes and to level out the surface
Shake the box to mix up the seeds. Sprinkle in 2 passes at right angles to each other at a rate of 25g/sq. m
Lightly rake into the surface
After Sowing:
Lightly firm the ground by walking over it or use a roller. This will press the seed into the soil.
Water thoroughly using a fine-rose watering can or sprinkler. Take care not to wash the seeds away
Water daily until established and in very hot conditions water late in the day once the sun has gone down. It is better to water thoroughly once rather than several times lightly
Mow for the first time when the grass is 5-8cm high. Gradually lower the cutting height to about 2.5cm. After 8 weeks we recommend feeding with Aftercut Ultra Green Plus.
Tips:
4-5 days before sowing a new lawn, lightly rake Westland Growmore into the soil
When preparing to sow, if the soil is dry water it thoroughly the day before and leaves to soak overnight
The top of the soil should be dry with moist soil just below the surface on the day of sowing
