A1 Lawn, Multi-Purpose Grass Seed - Fast Growing, Hard-Wearing Lawn, DEFRA Approved, 10kg

Now this is the way to a fantastic lawn. Very economical compared to turfing. Within 4 weeks having sown at the end of April the grass has really kicked on and is growing very well (see photo). Although Titchmarsh says you shouldn't need to water grass seed in the UK there has been little rain over the past month so my lawn has been watered nightly. Lush green colour and very consistent. Prepared with a rotorvator and added sharp sand and mushroom compost before rotorvating again, adding much needed organic matter to what is normally damp soil. My garden is partially shaded due to neighbouring houses, but this grass seed appears to be happy in partially shaded areas, albeit those ares are taking a little longer to establish than those in good day long sunlight. I think the mushroom compost has done the trick and is very cheap as a fertiliser. There is plenty of seed left over to add with top dressing in the autumn and next spring, my lawn is about 80sq m and I have overseeded my front lawn of a further 30sq m. Using only about half the bag (I probably used too much anyway) All in all I would recommend this seed for a new lawn. Edit: the second photo I have added shows the lawn after 6 weeks growth. Knitting in nicely and steadily the patches are filling in. I cannot understand those reviewers who have not seen any growth, but I assume soil conditions have much to do with how results pan out and the extra time I took to condition and prepare the soil has paid off.

Great seeds ease to use. Quick germination rate and effectiveness. I would definitely recommend them. Water the ground first, the sow the seeds. Ensure you water twice a day morning and evening during the dry season. The pictures show Day 1, Day 5 and Day 11. Great colour.

Generally very good had 6 bags I think so far maybe 7 with good results. Odd patch that does not develope and requires more. If this happens mix with fine soil and sprinkle over patches, its difficult to rake in if new grass surrounds patch. For best results after initial growing period feed it this is the most important thing if you want a lush blended in lawn otherwise colour variations will occur due to different concentrations of nutrients in the soil until roots develop fully which in my experience takes more than a year.

My lawn was completely barren. After adding new top soil, this seed went from nothing to lush grass in 6 weeks (May to June). Second picture shows after the first mow.

I don't often write reviews but this seed deserves one. Fantastic quality 👌

Too early yet , 3 days watering regularly nothing has sprouted yet and as spring is advancing the existing patchy lawn is starting to look healthier anyway so if the seeds do start to grow and fill the patched up for summer I'll post an update on this review.

The seeds are well packed in handy sizes. They have a good ratio of germination to failed seeds, and they germinate reasonably quickly. The grass is fine and of a good quality. Sadly the seller sent only 1 of the 4 I ordered, so AMZ had to give me a refund.

Good price considering I previously paid £10 for a small box from a supermarket Delivery was very good. I have only just seeded an area so I can’t comment on the growth
