Preguntas Frecuentes
How much grass seed do I need?
New lawns typically need 5-10 pounds per 1000 square feet. Overseeding needs 2-5 pounds per 1000 square feet. Type and condition affect rates.
What is the best time to seed?
Cool-season grasses: spring or fall. Warm-season grasses: late spring or early summer. Fall seeding allows winter dormancy.
Should I use blend or single seed type?
Blends (mixtures of varieties) are more resilient. Single types are acceptable for uniform conditions. Choose by climate and site conditions.
Do I need to prepare soil before seeding?
Yes, remove debris, address drainage issues, test/amend soil, and loosen top inch. Good soil contact improves germination.
How long until grass establishes?
Germination takes 7-14 days. Full establishment takes 4-6 weeks. Avoid traffic on new seeding during establishment.
