Troubleshooting
Seeds are not germinating after 10 days
Ensure the soil has remained consistently moist. Check for adequate sunlight and consider if local weather conditions are unusually cold or dry. Ensure seeds were sown at the correct depth.
Grass appears weak or thin
Continue to keep the soil moist and avoid heavy foot traffic. Ensure seeds were sown at the recommended rate for adequate density. Consider a light fertilization once the grass is established.
Weeds are growing faster than the grass
Ensure all existing weeds were removed before sowing. Once the grass is established, consider appropriate weed control methods that are safe for new lawns.
