Preparing your seedbed well goes a long way to ensuring successful
germination and the future production of a fantastic lawn. One of
the first things you'll consider is the quality of the soil you are
working with - determining what soil type you have will help you
greatly as in in some instances, you may have extremely poor soil
quality (e.g. leftover builders material in a new build) and it may
be advisable to add top soil. Other soil types such as sandy, clay
and loam can all be worked with but will still need to be well
prepared. The ideal seedbed should be:

Sowing A New Lawn Dig the soil over to a depth of 20-25cm then remove weeds by hand or use a weed killer. Add top soil if you have found your soil to be of lower quality, raking the area to get a level seedbed. Sow the seed at our recommended rate of 50g per m2, by hand but it's just as useful to use a seed spreader. After sowing rake the seed in so the seeds are amongst the soil, which will need to be firmed down by foot or a roller, to help encourage seed to soil contact. Overseeding A Lawn You'll need to remove any dead grass, weeds or moss by scarifying or raking the area, enough so the soil becomes loose. We recommend you sow the seed at a rate of 35g per m2, by using a seed spreader or simply by hand. Once you've spread your seed, rake in enough that the soil and seed are essentially one, then firm down by foot to improve seed to soil contact. | ||
