Alimac2 321 Posted May 29, 2015 Report Share Posted May 29, 2015 If matching the grass is a issue for you, spray the whole lot off, rotarvat, de stone & re seed. If not, I'd guess at it being a fairly standard amenity type grass, prep & seed the bare patch & top dress the rest with a little top soil & seed. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Alimac2 321 Posted May 29, 2015 Report Share Posted May 29, 2015 Because the chances are the lazy b*****ds that preped it previously couldn't be arsed & is likley full of stones..I prep it the same as I would if I was turfing, gives the seed a good bed of tilf. Don't tell me you just rotarvate seed then roll? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Chid 6,519 Posted May 30, 2015 Report Share Posted May 30, 2015 Don't tell me you just rotarvate seed then roll? Dont do gardening , was just wondering as on a larger scale (reseeding a field) stones are said to help with drainage Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Alimac2 321 Posted June 1, 2015 Report Share Posted June 1, 2015 It's only the top inch or so that you de stone. So won't effect the drainage either way. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

jeemes 4,481 Posted August 8, 2015 Report Share Posted August 8, 2015 Buy your grass seed from a professional place or golf course dealer..Just ask for a fairway grade seed.. Please dont buy quick fix type seeds as they are often agricultural fodder types and are not good at being cut a lot and dont form a mat. Best time now is end of August and into september for seeding,then leave cutting until next spring.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
