My yard is real muddy and a bit splotchy. Also i have lots of trees so its very shaded. The shade grass seed seemed to work well in certain parts last fall when i was experimenting but im going to buy a lot of grass seed this spring and I want to put it down when i will get the best results.

Best times for planing grass is early spring, just when the grass is starting to green up and in the early fall about six weeks before the existing grass starts to turn brown.

Kill weeds. it is not that hassle-free the two. you will could spray greater desirable than as quickly as. no rely if it extremely is starting to be season the place you reside... first use a wide spectrum weed killer like roundup. Wait each and every week.... each and every thing could be ineffective.... yet some seeds might have sprouted. if it extremely is the case... spray back. then you wait yet another week (for the roundup to breakdown).... unfold grass seed with a seeder so it extremely is uniform.... after which the two rake it gently and unfold a "starter fertilizer" in the different case conceal it with a skinny layer of seeding soil. some human beings conceal it with straw to maintain it from drying (i discover this flowers greater weeds). you should then shop the seed from drying out. If it dries after it sprouts it extremely is ineffective.... so water in many circumstances (and the seeding soil can help shop it moist). If all is going nicely you may have a thick backyard very today. be particular to purchase grass seed at a community greenhouse..... they might have seed blends appropriate on your section... as adversarial to straightforward blue grass blends which you discover at abode Depot. this might assist you to spend much less on water.

i read just recently, the best time was in the fall, before the snow of the winter, which is good germination time for the seeds, snow is rich in the nutrients it needs.
