Directions For Use

Best Planting Time: Spring to late Summer in cooler states. Germination of couch is more vigorous when soil temperature above 21 degrees.

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 Lawn Repair 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 8cm high, removing the top 3cm.

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.
