However, he did not die. In central Florida, this grass came up great in the spring and then died in the heat of summer. This year, I planted it again in November, and again it has grown very well. Now it looks fine. Hope it will last until its time to go when I sell my house in March. There is no way it will survive here in Florida in the summer heat. This plant is not indigenous to the southern states. My only complaint is that the seed is poor quality. We just don't have the right climate for it in

Having not known this, the grass can't be fertilized until it has established more root systems. In order for fertilizer to make its way into the soil without burning the grass, grass seed needs to germinate for several days before it sprouts. While I seeded later than I should have, but before the tree leaves grew to full size and created deep shade over the summer, I did not get them in as early as I should have. It is only two weeks since seeding that the grass is now around 2 inches high and getting their second leaf/blade. It was difficult for me to loosen the soil on the majority of the seeded area. There are a lot of tree roots in the soil and clay is heavy there. In these areas, grass is still sprouting. As long as the soil is moist, I've kept it that way. Sometime you will need to water twice per day with a sprinkler for ten minutes each. There have been days when the temperatures ranged from the 60s to the 80s.

Towards the end of the third week, 70 percent of the grass seeds had The roots appear to be the thickest in the areas where I added soils instead of those that had clay soil, but a few have sprouted there as well. In the first round, I overseeded the areas, and in the second round I reseeded them. I will be here for five Raking the soil and making sure that the ground was loose was my responsibility. (Houston garden center) composted the topsoil and added it to my garden. In areas where there was about an inch of that, the most success was achieved. As a result, I got a sprout rate of about 70 percent in areas with enriched top soil, and less than 5 percent in areas just raked with little to no top soil added. In the pictures you can see the mix I have. My knowledge of the variety of grass is limited and they're all fine blades of grass, so I am not able to tell which sprouted. The rating will be updated once the rest of the seeds sprout in the bald spots. Therefore, it is in balance so far.

The seed was never able to germinate. Following the directions completely, I did what was asked. My first step was to loosen the soil, plant the seeds, cover them with soil and wrap them with a light hay mulch. We watered it every day when it didn't rain, and we ended up getting a lot of rain as a bonus. Almost 2 weeks go by, and there isn't a blade of grass to be seen. There was not a single blade in sight!.
