Q1: When can children and pets return to a lawn treated with Miracle-Gro® EverGreen® Complete 4 in 1? Remove any dead grass from the patchy area, loosen the soil with a rake and give the area a thorough soaking with water. A3: The weeds that have appeared in your new lawn are commonly occurring, opportunistic species. Such weeds often come up on newly disturbed soil, where they can rapidly colonise and establish themselves. They will have originated from seed which has lain dormant in the soil, possibly for many years, or from weed seed that may have been wind-blown, or introduced by birds. Most of them will be annual weeds and with regular mowing they will die off. All grass seed is examined for purity before it is released for sale and there will not be other. The best grass seed will also withstand local weather conditions. Ryegrass and Fescue grasses are the prime choice for shady gardens, whilst Tall Fescue can handle the UK’s wet weather. Meadowgrass or Fescue grasses are great for gardens with dry or sandy soil. Apply evenly as per the instructions, this is crucial as it makes all the difference to the success of germination.

A3: In ideal conditions when the soil is moist, grass will start to appear from 7-10 days. In less favourable conditions allow 10-14 days. If the soil is cooler germination will take longer. For general domestic use, I recommend going for a grass seed that contains various grass seed species. Look for a combination of Ryegrass, Fescue grasses, and Browntop Bent . This mixes durability, shade-hardiness and fine grass, providing a perfect balance. It’s one of the best grass seed mixes for families who have energetic children or pets running around the lawn, who also want grass that they can flop down onto for a comfortable sunbathe. After much to-ing and sowing, we've come to the final decision on the best grass seed... Of course, it had to go to Miracle-Gro EverGreen Complete 4in1. The value for money, phenomenal results, and the variety of what this product does make it go to the top of our list. When to sow grass seed:Prepare the lawn by mowing it short, raking out dead grass, moss and debris. Apply a lawn dressing such as Miracle-Gro EverGreen Lawn Dressing. Contains a special binder which helps to keep the seed from washing away and allows it to thrive. How to use Birds eating grass seed before it has a chance to germinate can be a very irritating waste of money, so it’s nice to see that Gro-Sure have factored in a solution to this problem with their Multi-Purpose Grass Lawn Seed.

Create a criss-cross pattern by sowing half the seed from left to right and the rest from top to bottom. The high content of Strong Creeping Red Fescue means that even if you have a lot of shade in your garden, this grass seed won’t have a problem growing there. Whereas other grass species can’t cut it in the shadows, the Red Fescue in this grass seed will help create cushiony areas under the trees, perfect for sitting in and keeping cool during summer. Perennial Ryegrass and Fescue grasses do well in the shade. So if you’ve always struggled with a patchy, uneven lawn in shaded areas, make sure to buy a grass mix which contains these varieties. Leave your new grass to grow and get established, it should not have any treatments applied to it until it is at least 6 months old.Gently rake in and tread the seeds into the soil. Unless it rains, soak with a fine spray and keep soil moist for the next few weeks. A certain amount of patience and trust is required as well, as the seed can lie relatively dormant for quite some time. Watering day and night, for as long as 15 days, is needed to start noticing small shoots appearing. Browntop Bent isn’t as commonly found in hardwearing grass seed mixes, but it can make be included because it helps make lawns fine and soft. A small percentage of Browntop Bent, such as the 5% found in the GBW 1 kg Grass Seed, will add some finer, short grass to your lawn.

Often, you’ll notice that grass seed isn’t made up of just one species of grass. In general, several different variations are combined to improve the overall properties of your lawn. Visually, the results are pretty much the same; you’ll still get a greener, healthier looking lawn, and it also grows pretty fast – you can start reaping the rewards of your labour after a couple of weeks when the lawn starts fill out.Remove all weeds and stones and lightly turn the soil surface over.
