Perfect tutorial. Works for me. To avoid soil and seeds sticking to your shoes or wellies find flat soled shoes and tie carrier bags around them. Also keeps the shoes clean and avoids ruts.

[@TheDevilWillBurn]

Top advice. 👍

[@Icemanpdx]

Simple and straight forward video on what I need to do. Thanks. I was searching for videos last night that took forever. Yours was perfect.

[@B_HarTz]

In 2023, countless videos I watched, this is the simplest and easiest to follow… didn’t want to rent a tiller and a simple “ fork” tool to dig into the dirt is by far better to do…. Now finding the right grass seed is hard to find

[@JohnSmith-oe5kx]

For germination, frequent light waterings are good, periodic soakings are not. The aim is to keep the environment slightly humid at all times

Perfect video! Straight to the point! No fluff! 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾

[@louisasmiles]

Knowing my luck the seeds would stick to my boots and a build up of mud would happen

[@jonfrance7201]

@thewokenspirit374exactly. Get flat sole footwear and put your feet in the bags and tie them around your ankles

Help me out , do the seeds need to be buried or not ?

[@cliff_cliff]

no

[@libra03able]

Hi, i leave in Toronto. We bought our house last August. The backyard was full og weeds. So we used weed killer to get rid of those. Now that snow is over we see little patches of green but a big section has yellow grass and also the dead weeds. How I prep the backyard for grass for summer.do I need to dig the whole entire backyard? Please advise.

[@kumstuke]

Yes, you have to. Otherwise, you will have rubish lawn.

[@tamimtimimi2347]

I never saw again no result at all, only 1 grass 1 came out and I la my chicken eat it, ( that's before I watcht this video)

Actually actually raking it after spreading the seeds causes “bald spots”… DO NOT LISTEN TO THESE CLOWNS… DO NOT RAKE AFTER SEEDING AND FOLOW THE VIDEOS INSTRUCTIONS I am , and it’s my first time doing this

Could you advise how much seeding soil would be required for a 10m x 6m lawn area?

[@MrChipmunk010]

If I don’t lay down the compost stuff and just plant seeds in the soil already there, will it still grow

[@cliff_cliff]

yes. ive done this twice using wilko seed and been successful. the main thing seems to be a good daily water if but only if there has been no rain. watch the titchmarsh video on it its as simple as he makes it sound.

When is the best time to sow a new lawn?

[@ItsStevieMac]

And how long does it take for the new grass to be fully gown / covered?

[@YENIPRO]

He said March to may

[@ZekeMagnum]

best is fall. why? higher moister level in the air, more rain fall + you got some 3 months before winter and then entire spring for the grass to grow strong before summer. also weed doesn't like cold, so you dont have to worry about weed popping up on your naked areas.

[@fraseroates9086]

Hi, I have recently pulled all the weeds/plants/roots/large rocks up from my garden (approx 100m²). There is a scattering of small branches and small rocks - do these ALL need to be cleared away for grass to grow? Or can I get away with the soil having some bits of stone etc. still in there? Thanks!

[@nayab616]

Do u find some way ... i have the same question plz reply

[@nayab616]

I have weeds and very small stones in the soil ... i removed weeds but what about small stones

[@ruheluddin9384]

How would you top up lawn seed if they didn’t grow first time round - say 2 weeks after first seeding?

I have just seeded a area of lawn where i had a shed, The problem is on a night a cat comes and does its mess and piles a mound of soil on it, Would it be ok to cover the area on a night with a pvc sheet.

[@StephenWorley]

Use an electric fence at a low level around the area - a low output such as 0.2 Joules. Once they get a bite from it they'll never return to your garden.

[@fuzmaginty5822]

its a weed so its gonna grow👍

[@fishchipsandmushypeas]

Just what I needed 🤘

[@movingon.............6850]

I have a much better way than this. I put my seed in a container where I will sprout it prior to sowing it in the soil. I put miracle grow in water, then soak the seed in it for 24-48 hours then rinse it and drain the water. Rinse and drain it daily for at least 7 days. As soon as it shows a white bump, I then soak it again in water mixed with miracle grow for another 24 hours and the next day I will rinse and drain it then mix the sprouted seeds in a compost or coco peat in a relatively good ratio. Spread it on the ground by hand and water the ground regularly, it’s best to do it during the autumn or early spring so it’ll get watered effortlessly, it’s a 110% success in growing rate.

ive just used this grass seed. i havent covered the seed with topsoil or trodden on it. i very lightly raked over it but a lot of seed is still showing on top of the soil. can i just water and leave it, or will it not grow properly ?. thx in advance.

[@gardenhealth]

Hi Safc, ideally you should have trodden on it, but it should be absolutely fine, especially as we have such good growing conditions at the moment (ie not cold and fairly wet). If you want to discuss in more detail, give our customer services team a call on 01480 443789.

[@edemkounou7734]

Very informative video. My question is that why do we need to firmly press the soil amd the seed down by walking or using a roller? Thank you

[@timesaregettingbadpatrickd6207]

Reason being that areas that are not level or have a sinking shows up so just add more soil to those areas and try to get everything level and flat

[@Lithium023]

Preaty sure it's because it plants the seed in the ground and the soil is what gives the seeds the nutrients they need to grow. Plus that way your seed won't get blown away or washed away as easily if there is a hard rain.

[@TheEIREGUNNER]

this method is wrong

[@geethav7856]

yes

[@86faST13]

TheEIREGUNNER How is it wrong if the grass grows? Many methods are used to grow grass and if your grass grows it's not "wrong"....you can just toss seed right on the dirt and let it germinate naturally if you want . There's no right or wrong just better or worse.

[@turfconsultantindia6666]

It depends upon different sowing methods

[@zarrow50]

about how long to germinate?

[@gardenhealth]

Hi Clive, it depends what the temperatures are like where you are. Optimum soil temperatures are about 15C (and not dipping below 6/7C at night). If this happens, it will germinate in about 2 weeks. If it's still chilly where you are, could take longer.

[@gardenhealth]

You can contact our customer services team on 01480 443789, or by emailing [e-mail] if you need more info.

[@geethav7856]

it depends on the grass seed type
