Four Steps to Preparing a Lawn for New Seed<br />

1. Clear, Till & Level Ground<br />

Providing a clear area that has been removed of any debris, loosened and<br />

leveled out to provide an area suitable to cultivate a healthy lawn.<br />

2. Amend Soil<br />

Check soil pH to be certain that soil is ready for seed. Seeds germinate best<br />

in a neutral soil pH. Apply Landscapers Select Rapid Release Lime or Rapid<br />

Release Lime powered by AMP-XC to increase pH level in acid soil or sulfur<br />

to reduce pH level in alkaline soil.<br />

3. Plant New Grass Seed<br />

Determine which grasses grow best in your area. Talking with a local lawn<br />

care expert to help identify which grass species are common in the area.<br />

4. Fertilize & Water<br />

Apply Landscapers Select Starter Fertilizer to give the new grass seed the<br />

nutrients needed to grow. A good rule of thumb is to make sure the new<br />

grass has plenty of water to be damp but is not saturated.<br />
