Directions
Directions: Successful seeding can be accomplished if these procedures are followed for both overseeding lawns and establishing new lawns or sodding. 1. Preparation: Good seed-to-soil contact is very important in order to achieve good germination of the planted grass seed. (a) Mow lawn before seeding. (b) Rake dead grass and debris and loosen the soil. Add additional topsoil if needed. For larger areas, a rented de-thatching machine may be easier. Apply seed to the loosened soil and then lightly rake it into the ground. Do not bury the seed more than 1/4 inch deep. 2. For best results, apply these Jonathan Green products in any order, on the same day. Jonathan Green Veri-Green Starter Fertilizer for seeding & sodding provides the nutrients necessary for new grass growth. Jonathan Green Magical Plus for soil compaction and pH adjustment helps loosen hard, compacted soils and provides calcium - an essential grass plant nutrient, which AIDS in the seedling's ability to absorb nutrients. 3. Seed bed should be kept moist for a few weeks while the grass seed germinates. Mow the new grass after it has reached a height of 2-1/2 to 3 inches.
