GETTING STARTED

TOP TIP FOR BEST RESULTS EVERY TIME

Use a law fertiliser a few weeks after the seeds have germinated to encourage a strong healthy lawn.  For maximum results, store in a cool dry place and use within the season of purchase.  Protect your lawn from birds and other wildlife while seeds are germinating.
Wait until the risk of frost has passed before using Premier Play.  Frost will affect seed germination.

FOR NEW LAWNS

1. Divide the area that you want to sow into easily manageable sections. A soft, warm, moist soil is best for seed germination.
2. Prepare the area by breaking up all clods and remove any weeds, stones, and leaves.
3. Rake the soil to a depth of 8-10cm, the soil texture should resemble fine breadcrumbs.
4. Shake the seed mixture evenly over the area. Seed rate: 750g per 22.5m².
5. Rake the seeds lightly to ensure they make contact with the soil and are evenly spread.
6. Water well with a light spray. Keep the soil moist until the new lawn is well rooted but take care not to wash seeds away!
7. When the grass reaches approximately 8cm high, move for the first time.
8. Follow instructions for overseeding to fill any bare patches.

OVERSEEDING OR RESTORING A LAWN 

1. Mow the grass as short as possible.
2. Rake out dead and dry grass cuttings and remove patches of moss.
3. Using a garden fork, spike the lawn about 8cm deep every 30cm. This boosts grass root growth an improves surface drainage.
4. Shake the seed mixture evenly over the area. Seed rate: 750g per 22.5m².
5. Rake the seeds lightly to ensure they make contact with the soil and are evenly spread.
6. Water well daily with light spray and keep soil moist.
7. When the grass reaches approximately 8cm high mow for the first time.

Try to keep traffic on a freshly over-seeded lawn to a minimum for 7 to 21 days.
