This blog takes inspiration from a previous blog, “How Often to Water New Grass Seeds” but in a different context. With the UK experiencing a year of above-average rainfall (June 2023 to June 2024), it's important to understand how this extra water can impact your soil and new seedlings, and how best to care for them.
Understanding your soil type is crucial for proper watering, whether during dry spells or periods of heavy rain. This blog equips you with the knowledge to determine how much water your new lawn needs to thrive, using both simple and more technical methods.
At Grass Science Seeds we are all about science; understanding the variables and factors which affect grass seed germination and growth is what we do! Most people understand the basic formula of water + sun = growth but there is another important variable to consider: soil temperature.
As the growing season begins, hungry and recently emerged native bees face a critical period. In urban and suburban areas, finding floral resources is often difficult. With a view to supporting and protecting our bee neighbours, there’s plenty you can be doing to enhance the diversity and abundance of wildlife in your area.
With various seeds available on the market, it can be challenging to know what kind of turf will match your business needs. Although choosing the right grass seed can confuse many, the best match will ultimately be one which works with your soil types, climate and application.
Every business, including sporting, agriculture and landscaping, has individual requirements. That is why it is essential to have turf which will serve its purpose while looking uniform and professional.
The physical appearance of a lawn is essential for most gardeners, greenkeepers and groundstaff. The density, firmness and uniformity play critical roles in determining the longevity and performance of the green.
With years of research and experience, the team at Grass Science Seeds have broken down their top 5 ways of maximising turf performance for a more consistent and reliable lawn.
At Grass Science Seeds (GSS) we believe in science. We feel very strongly about the value of your confidence and your financial investment, therefore for us sampling must be done correctly to avoid getting spurious results which will mislead and misinform, in turn could mean lots of wasted time and money and no results to show for it.
