How to Sow Grass Seed

Knowing how to mow your lawn, when to mow your lawn and how often you should mow your lawn can all be a bit confusing as advice can change seasonally – but there are some mowing tips that are timeless.

Here in the UK, we get plenty of rain so watering your lawn is probably not too high on your priority list, but knowing how to water your lawn is an essential part of caring for it.

Throughout the seasons, most lawns will suffer from patchiness, wear and tear, a build-up of weeds, and possibly some moss and dead grass. Overseeding is a great way to help resolve these issues and get your lawn back to looking its very best. 

Sowing a lawn correctly is key to achieving your dream lawn, and our six step guide will show you exactly how it’s done. We cover everything from the best weather conditions for sowing, what tools you need to sow your lawn, the how to prepare your seed bed, and of course, how to sow your seed!

The best grass seed for your lawn will be a mixture of seeds that are fit for purpose, and ‘do what they say on the tin’ or in this case – the bag!
