Description
high performance multi-purpose lawn seed and lawn fertiliser gives thick, healthy lawn
Instructions for use
Rake: Rake the area to remove all weeds, stones or dead grass. Scatter a large handful (approx 30g) of Evergreen Lawn Food per square metre. Rake well into the soil. If over-seeding ensure you mow the grass short first.
Shake: Shake the box to mix the seeds. Apply a small handful (approx 20g) per square metre to overseed thin areas or a large handful (approx 30g) for bare patches.
Create a criss-cross pattern by sowing half the seed from left to right and the rest from top to bottom. Gently rake in, then lightly cover the area with lawn dressing. Level and firm by treading the soil.
Water: Soak with a fine spray and keep soil moist for the next few weeks.
When will I see the results?
In ideal conditions when the soil is moist, grass will start to appear from 5 days. In less favourable conditions allow 10-14 days. Existing grass will become greener in 7 days.
When do I use it?
Apply to your lawn during March to early October once frost has passed.
How much will I need?
This pack will create a new lawn of 20 square metres (5m x 4m). To determine the size of your lawn multiply the length by the width in metres. Alternatively a lawn with 2 by 3 standard fence panels (1.82m width) will cover approx 20m2.
Aftercare for a thicker, healthier lawn
Mowing: The grass can be trimmed when 5-8cm. Each time you mow, lower blade height a level until its at 3cm. Do not cut more than a 1/3 off the growth at any one time.
Feeding: Feed your lawn on a regular basis to ensure it is kept healthy.
Children and pets: It's fine to use this product in gardens with children and pets, but little feet can damage developing seeds, so it's best to keep them off the treated areas until the grass has established.
