Key information

Genus: Lawn
PREPARATION • Remove all weeds, surface stones and debris. • Dig or rotovate the soil to a depth of 15-22cm. • Create a level, firm surface by close treading, heel to heel or by rolling the whole area. Rake until the surface soil is fine and crumbly. • If possible, leave the area to settle for a few weeks. Level any uneven areas and remove any weeds that appear. • To give the lawn a good start a pre-sowing fertiliser can be raked in at the recommended rate. Seed should not be sown until 5-7 days after application. SOWING • The best time to sow is when the soil is warming up after a rain shower. • Shake the box before sowing half the seed along the area and half the seed across the area to give even coverage. • Sow the seed at a rate of 35g per square metre. • Rake in the seed. If no rain falls within 1 week water thoroughly with a fine spray. • The sown area should be kept moist until the seed is well established. Young grass will appear in 14-21 days. • Weeds are likely to appear from the soil. These will be killed off with regular mowing. LAWNCARE • If the weather is dry keep the soil moist with regular watering using a fine spray. • Keep off the lawn until the grass is 5-8cm high. • Make the first cut at this stage just ‘topping’ the grass. Subsequent cuts can gradually be lowered to an ideal height of 25mm. • Mow regularly to maintain a healthy lawn (try not to remove more than one third of the height in any one mow). • A good fertiliser should be applied at least once a year as recommended by the manufacturer. • Rake off dead leaves in the autumn and winter.
