Sowing Instructions
Your seeds need to make contact with the soil for germination so if you are sowing into an established grass area cut the grass back as low as you can and rake the ground to break up the soil and bring bare patches to the surface. Also, it needs to be free from weeds.
If it's grass-free sow directly and then make sure your seeds have made contact with the soil by firming down (walking or rolling).
We recommend 5g per square meter and mixing coarse sand with your seeds to help distribution, scatter over the area and sprinkle a little soil over the top.
Water the seeds in and keep watering if there is a dry spell.
