Note, two different types of amenity perennial ryegrass will be used in this mix. Different ryegrass cultivars have varying tolerances to stressors, such as drought and cold, and by combining two (or more) varieties, a lawn seed mix is better equipped to handle a range of conditions across seasons or years.

- Clear the area. Remove debris, stones, and weeds.

- Prepare the soil. Loosen to 15cm.

- Level the surface. Use a rake to smooth, firm with a roller if needed.

 - Allow settling. Let the soil rest for a week and remove emerging weeds then, rake the soil lightly to loosen the top layer.

 - Sow your grass seed. Spread the grass seed evenly at 35-50g/m2 using a spreader.  

- Incorporate the seed. Rake gently, then roll or tread to ensure good contact with the soil.

- Water regularly. Lightly water every evening during dry periods.

- Mow when ready. Mow the grass once it reaches 3-4 inches, gradually lowering the cut height.

- Feed lightly, if needed. Apply a low-nitrogen
lawn feed once the lawn is established, especially in poor soils.

- Control weeds manually. Avoid herbicides in
the first 6 months, hand-weed or spot-treat if necessary.

- Aerate as needed. In compacted or high-traffic areas, consider aerating in spring or autumn to improve root health.

- Monitor and reseed bare patches. Overseed thin areas in early autumn or spring to maintain full coverage.
