FAQs
How quickly will I see results?
You can expect to see visible germination within 7 to 14 days, with a thicker lawn developing shortly after.
Is this seed safe for pets and children?
Yes, the Johnsons Quick Lawn Seed with Accelerator is child and pet friendly.
What is the best time of year to sow this seed?
The ideal sowing period is between March and October.
How much area does the 210g pack cover?
The 210g pack is designed to cover up to 10 square meters.
Can I use this for overseeding an existing lawn?
Yes, this product is suitable for overseeding existing lawns to improve density and fill in patches. Use a sowing rate of 25g per square meter for overseeding.
What should be the mowing height for the new lawn?
For optimal results and to encourage a thicker lawn, maintain a mowing height of approximately 25mm (1 inch).
Does the accelerator require special conditions to work?
The accelerator works by directing micronutrients into the seed, which requires adequate moisture in the soil to function effectively. Ensure the area is kept consistently moist after sowing.
Troubleshooting
Seed not germinating
Ensure the soil is kept consistently moist, and that seeds are not sown too deep. Check that the sowing window (March-October) is being adhered to and that birds have not consumed the seeds.
Lawn is patchy or thin
Ensure the correct sowing rate was used. For overseeding, the ground should be scarified or lightly raked before sowing. Consistent watering and adhering to the recommended mowing height are crucial.
Grass is not growing thick
Verify that the accelerator is working by ensuring the soil is adequately moist for micronutrient absorption. Mowing at the recommended height of 25mm helps promote thicker growth.
Weeds are growing aggressively
Ensure the area was thoroughly weeded before sowing. For established weeds, consider a pre-sowing weed killer or manual removal. Dense, healthy grass growth will naturally suppress weeds over time.
