Lawn Sowing - Advice

Step 1: Preparation

Before sowing the seed it is important to prepare the soil

  • Dig the soil to a depth of 15cm
  • Roughly level soil with a rake and allow to settle for a week if possible
  • Rake to the side to remove new weeds and create a fine seed bed
  • Firm the soil by treading the site evenly
  • Then rake the soil again

Step 2: Sowing the Seed

  • Sow April to mid October on a calm & dry day
  • Sowing rate of 35g (a good hand full) per m2
  • Too little seed means your lawn will be slower to establish or may have weeds
  • Too much seed leaves your lawn prone to disease
  • Scatter seed evenly - first moving left to right and then up and down
  • Note: you could use a Broadcast spreader to do this job
  • Lightly work the soil from left to right and back and forth to bury seeds to roughly 0.5cm

Step 3: Caring for a New Lawn

  • The grass should appear after 7-21 days
  • Once it appears make sure to keep the lawn watered using a fine water setting
  • Do not cut the lawn until it reaches a height of 8cm (3")
  • Gradually reduce blade's height until it is reduced to 2.5cm (1")
This is a great product. Works really well and is great value. Need to look at the online build demo as graphics on instructions leaflet are not the clearest. As usual really pleased with the garden shop. Fast delivery too.
Arrived on time.Good value.
Great product , great service , fast delivery, very happy
Great product.
First class service as usual.
Ordered yesterday arrived today.
Excellent delivery service.Ordered spreader on Thursday,delivered Friday lunchtime.Have'nt tried spreader yet,but looks good !
Very impressed with it. Quite solid and sturdy and flow adjuster works well . Very good value for money. You would need to pay particular attention to the assembly video from the Gardenshop.ie AND the assembly instruction leaflet. The illustrations in the assembly leaflet show which way around to fit the axle Drive Stab . I found a good phillips head ( X head ) screwdriver much easier to use than the flat head screwdriver , you need a 10mm spanner also . The video makes it very clear how to assemble. Watch it twice before starting assembly is my advice.I give this product 5 stars , I am delighted with its performance , great performance and great value for money , I think I will get years and years out of it
