How to Install (Step-by-Step)

1. Prepare the soil: Mow short, remove debris, and loosen the top 0.5–1" of soil. Level low spots.
2. Seed: Apply at the rate above. For bare soil, make a second pass at a perpendicular angle.
3. Starter fertilizer: Apply a phosphorus-containing starter per soil test or label.
4. Topdress: Lightly cover seed with peat moss, clean straw, or a thin compost layer to retain moisture.
5. Water: Keep the top 0.5" of soil consistently moist until germination (usually 7–14 days depending on temperature).
6. First mow: Mow when seedlings reach ~3–3.5", removing no more than 1/3 of the blade.
7. Early care: Reduce watering frequency as roots deepen; avoid heavy traffic until established.

Important: Do not apply pre-emergent herbicides during seeding—they will prevent germination.

Best Time to Seed & Mow Height

• Timing: Early fall is ideal in cool-season regions; spring seeding is also possible with diligent watering.
• Mowing: Maintain at 3.0–4.0 inches for best color, density, and stress tolerance.
