Description
The ultimate seeding solution, thicker, denser lawn. Child and pet friendly.
The 'Super' Seed
Miracle-Gro Super Seed contains a specially selected variety of perennial ryegrass that regenerates and spreads by itself to create a thicker denser lawn. This special seed combined with slow release lawn food and soil enricher makes it the ultimate seeding solution for growing new lawns, thickening thin lawns or repairing patches.
Instructions for use
Rake: Rake the area to remove all weeds, stones or dead grass. If over-seeding ensure you mow the grass short first. Lightly cover the area with Miracle-Gro Lawn Dressing. Level and firm by treading the soil.
Shake: Shake the box to mix the seeds. If over-seeding apply 30g per m2 (approx a handful) and for new lawns or bare patches 52g per m2. Using the handy sprinkler on the side of the pack, create a criss-cross pattern by sowing half the seed from left to right and the rest from top to bottom. Gently rake in and tread the seeds into 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 9 days. In less favourable conditions allow 10-14 days.
When do I use it?
Apply to your lawn during March to early October once the risk of frost has passed and soil temperature is at least 6 degrees celcius.
Works at a lower temperature
Unlike most grass seeds, Super Seed works with temperatures as low as 6 degrees celcius so you can get started earlier in the season.
How much will I need?
This pack will overseed an existing lawn of approx 33m2 or create a new lawn of approx 19m2. To determine the size of your lawn multiply the length by the width in metres. Alternatively a lawn with 3 by 3 standard fence panels (1.82m width), will cover approx 33m2.
Mowing: The grass can be trimmed when 5-8cm. Each time you mow, lower blade height a level until it's at 2.5cm. Do not cut more than 1/3 off the growth at any one time.
Feeding: Start feeding your lawn after the second mowing to ensure it's 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.
