FAQs
How much Pronto Seed do I need?
A 1.4kg box covers up to 84m² when overseeding or approximately 42m² for new lawns.
How often should I water the lawn?
Water frequently, especially during the initial germination phase. Once established, water deeply but less frequently.
When is the best time to sow Pronto Seed?
Spring and autumn are the ideal times to sow, when temperatures are moderate, and there is sufficient moisture.
Can I use Pronto Seed in shaded areas?
Pronto Seed prefers sunlight, so results may vary in heavily shaded areas. Consider using a shade-tolerant grass seed mixture for those areas.
How long after sowing can I mow the lawn?
Wait until the grass reaches a height of 5-7cm before the first mowing. Avoid cutting too short in the beginning.
Is Pronto Seed suitable for heavy foot traffic?
Yes, Pronto Seed is designed to be hard-wearing and withstand everyday use, making it suitable for lawns with moderate foot traffic.
How do I store any unused seed?
Store unused seed in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, to maintain its viability for future use.
Troubleshooting
Poor germination or slow growth.
Ensure the soil is moist and receives adequate sunlight. Check the soil temperature; seeds germinate best in warmer conditions. Consider using a soil test to check nutrients.
Uneven growth or patchy lawn.
Ensure even seed distribution during application. Water consistently and avoid overwatering in certain areas. Consider using a spreader.
Grass turning yellow.
Check for signs of pests or diseases. Adjust watering habits to avoid over or underwatering. Test soil pH and nutrient levels.
