Many times our lawns need repair after a long summer season, and sometimes during. The common things that cause some repair are shade, sun, and pet urine. Most people don’t know what to do in these cases. In this post, we will briefly give you an insight into what to use for lawn repair.
Procedure Made Simple
You have probably heard how hard it is to plant grass seed. You have to buy topsoil, fertilizer, and the seed you need to use. You probably heard about dethatching to remove all the unwanted grass out of the way.
Well, there is an easier but slightly more expensive way to do this. What we are talking about here is using Scotts Easy Seed. What this will do is eliminate the use of all of the steps of repairing your lawn traditionally.
This means instead of having to dethatch, plant seed, then fertilize what you planted, plus applying topsoil, you can just apply this premixed seed and let it do the rest. This will be great for the average homeowner who has never had to follow all the steps mentioned earlier.
Your Job Explained
You will primarily be responsible for doing some raking up dead patches and making sure, after you apply Scotts Easy Seed, that you keep it watered properly. Proper watering is needed for the germination and growth process of the seed.
Now, does that sound easy or what? It is compared to doing it the traditional way, which is a very good way, but we are shooting for the easier route for those who are just simple homeowners who want to do it on their own.
What Is Easy Seed For?
Easy seed will help you repair spots in your lawn that go through different conditions, which can affect your grass. The things that can cause problems are shaded areas, high sun areas, and areas that dogs love to urinate in.
The product also comes in different varieties of seed to accommodate whatever region you live in, such as Fescue, Bermuda, Centipede, or St. Augustine. In case you did not know, some seeds are for certain regions.
Watering Is Key
The good thing about this product is that it will let you know that it needs water because it will be light brown if it is not moistened. If it is, it will be a dark brown. This is another way it makes your job easier, helping you help it grow.
