Thanks , sometimes the bots running around our websites are useful. a few days later I get no end of golf green quality , grass seed supplier adverts showing up on the, " Always ignore this side of my computer's screen ".
One looked reasonable so I wrote down the details and then put them into my search engine . Found a decent one with four different fescues giving total of 30% fescues .
On Friday I had finally completed the clearing of the lawns , incorportated in three bales of sedge peat and two bags of 4 week feed seed compost using ghe rototiller to a depth of 9 or more inches deep. then Fridy afternoon I used a 30 kg vibrating plate to level and compact the surface to get it very flat and slightly compacted . Sowed it at 38 gram per square metre by using druggies type digital scales to get the right amount in a plastic cup , poured it into a spray aerosol can's cap drew the level line round the inside the cap , emptied the seed out then cut the cap down tot h line so that every subsequent cap full levelled off was going to be fairly close to the required 38 gram/sq. mtr .
Every thing was done just in time for a 14 hrs light drizzle to set the seed in the soil's surface . It got another long drizzle session on Saturday .
I can't see any green grass yet, should I ask for my £38 back ?
