Directions For Use
Best Planting Time: Plant all year round. See instructions below for late Spring or Summer planting.
Step 1 – Dig soil to a depth of 10cm. Work the top 3cm of soil to a fine smooth texture (a load of sandy loam topsoil will help). On hard clay soils, apply Grow Better Gypsum.
Step 2 – Check soil acidity – pH of 6 to 7 is ideal. Adjust acid soils with Grow Better Garden Lime.
Step 3 – Rake Lawn Starter into the soil. Spread Grow Better Hardy and Drought Tolerant Lawn Seed Blend evenly, firm down or tread seed into surface.
Step 4 – Water with fine spray and keep damp until lawn is established (1 to 3 weeks). Lawns sown in late Spring or Summer need frequent watering during the first summer.
Step 5 – Mow when grass is 5cm high, removing the top 2cm.
Feeding – Lawns need regular feeding to resist wear, disease and heat stress. Feed in Spring, early Summer and Autumn.
Watering – Regular deep watering is better than frequent light applications and makes lawn care easier and more water efficient.
