Are you Seeding your Lawn this SPRING? In this video , I cover 3 important steps that will help your spring seeding project be successful.

Spring seeding is not the best time for planting cools season grass. But there are a few things you can do to improve your success. Aim to seed early in the season, but wait until soil temperatures are at least 50 degrees. This roughly corresponds to the optimal soil temperatures for cool season grass seed germination. Early spring seeding, when the soil temps are in the 50’s will help the grass get ahead start developing deep roots before the summer heat arrives. Late seeding doesn't allow much time for the grass to develop a strong root mass. 

Another big concern with seeding is the spring is large amounts of weed pressure. To combat this issue, we will need to apply a special herbicide that will allow the grass to seed while preventing and killing weeds. The only herbicide that will allow for this is tenacity aka mesotrione. I will be applying the granular form of tenacity by Scotts called Scotts Turf Builder Starter Food For New Grass Plus Weed Preventer. Not only does this product contain weed preventer but it also includes fertilizer as well.

And last but not least, the most important this for a successful spring seeding is WATER WATER WATER. Water the grass at least 3 times a day and keep the seed moist to ensure fast germination, don’t allow it to dry out! And when the summer temperatures get here, water a half inch consistently every 23 days. Make sure to keep your eyes open during your regular watering schedule and make sure the grass doesn’t look like its struggling or drying out, if it is be sure to water it again additional from your regular secured watering. Seeding your lawn in spring is defiantly not easy, but its possible with the proper preparation and knowledge. Good Luck!
