Miracle-Gro Evergreen Fast Grass420g

Preparation and Usage

Instructions for Use Rake Rake the area to remove all weeds, stones or dead grass. If over-seeding ensure you mow the grass short first. Lightly cover the area with Miracle-Gro® Lawn Dressing. Level and firm by treading the soil. Shake Shake the box to mix the seeds. If over-seeding apply 20g/m2 (approx a handful) and for new lawns or bare patches 30g/m2. Using the handy sprinkler on the side of pack, create a criss-cross pattern by sowing half the seed from left to right and the rest from top to bottom. Gently rake in and tread the seeds into the soil. Water Soak with a fine spray and keep soil moist for the next few weeks. When will I see the results? In ideal conditions when the soil is moist, grass will start to appear from 4 days. In less favourable conditions allow 10-14 days. When do I use it? Apply to your lawn during March to early October once frost has passed. How much will I need? This pack will create a new lawn of 14m2 (7m x 2m). To determine the size of your lawn multiply the length by the width in metres. Alternatively a lawn with 2 by 2 standard fence panels (1.82m width), will cover approx 14m2. Mowing The grass can be trimmed when 5-8cm. Each time you mow, lower blade height a level until it's at 2.5cm. Do not cut more than 1/3 off the growth at any one time. Feeding Start feeding your lawn after the second mowing to ensure it's kept healthy. See our website for fertiliser recommendations. Children and pets Its fine to use this product in gardens with children and pets, but little feet can damage developing seeds, so it's best to keep them off the treated areas until the grass has established.
