As the shorter days start to roll in and you’ve enjoyed your garden to the full, your lawn will need rejuvenating and may need some TLC. To keep your lawn looking thick and full, new lawn seed needs to be sown to replace the older grass plants or those that have died during the high wear and tear over summer.Autumn is the best time to sow lawn seed, whilst the soil is still moist and warm, and weeds are less active.
The first thing is to decide what lawn seed you require for your garden. If your turf experiences heavy family and pet use with a lot of foot traffic, in which case a tougher mix with rye grass will be needed. Do you have shady areas where you’d like the grass to grow or are you looking to create a showpiece lawn which requires little maintenance?We recommend Gro-Sure Smart Lawn Seed and Smart Lawn Seed Fast Start which are both the perfect solution for thickening up bare areas of your lawn. Both mixes germinate in full sun, worn and shady areas and have a bird deterrent coating to keep avian friends at bay. They also contain high-quality grass seed varieties that have been treated with Aqua Gel technology, for improved germination results, which is able to absorb 400 times its weight in water and slowly releases it back to the seed. Seed Fast Start also germinates at a lower temperature of 7 °C, making it ideal for the autumn months.
Once you have chosen the seed you require, we recommend you measure your lawn to ensure you purchase enough for your area. If you have an irregular shaped lawn, use the following guidelines. For a circular lawn, measure the diameter of the area at its widest point and for triangular lawns, measure from the middle of the base to the tip of the triangle.
Once the blades reach the height of the existing lawn, it can then be mowed.
