Selecting high quality seeds

Seeding the lawn can have great rewards if done properly. The first thing to do is to select a grass type that is suited to grow in that area. Measure the surface area of the lawn to determine the amount of seed required. The information printed on the seed packs will tell how much seed is needed per square foot. Take note of this information while purchasing seed from local nursery. Two or three days before sowing, it is important to apply granular fertilizer over the lawn. Next is to level the soil and set seed spreader at the right setting and fill it with half of the seeds. Walk at a steady pace as start sowing. It is best to move back and forth the length of the lawn in alternating directions. After the lawn is covered with half the seeds, walk along the width of lawn and sow the rest of the seeds. Doing this will make the seed distribution more evenly.

Preparing lawn for quality seed
To establishing a lawn successfully is proper soil preparation. Soil testing will determine whether the soil pH and nutrient levels are in a range that favor turf grass growth. The soil test report will indicate needed amounts of fertilizer and lime. Remove all trash from the location to be planted. This includes rocks, bottles, large roots and old tree trunks too. If extensive grading is needed, remove the topsoil and store it for replacement after the rough grade is established. Rot tilling loosens compacted soil and improves the speed and depth of rooting. A tractor-mounted tiller will adequately till the soil. Not to destroy the existing trees in the lawn and cutting too many tree roots during soil tillage can severely damage. Trees can also be suffocated by deeply covering the roots with soil. If additional soil is necessary at a tree base then construct a tree well.
Choosing best seeds
Turf grasses vary in their ability to resist stresses. Drought tolerance makes sure of how well the turf will survive extended dry periods without irrigation or rainfall. Bermuda grass has excellent drought tolerance while tall fescue is given a fair rating. Shade from trees is a common occurrence in most landscapes. Turf grasses vary in their shade tolerance. Keep in mind that even a turf grass that is tolerant of shade needs at least 4 hours of full sun to grow well. Wear tolerance is a measure for a grass continues to grow after being walked or played upon.
