First things first. Before you can care for a lawn, you must plant
one. And, there are several things to keep in mind when choosing what
type of grass seed to purchase. This is because that grass seed can
grow into very different lawns. This difference could mean a lawn
filled with pests and weeds, or one that is low maintenance and looks
great. Here are some factors that you should take in consideration
while in the seed aisle at your local home and garden store.
First of all, you should determine what your ideal yard will look
like, as grasses can vary in color, leaf width, characteristic and
growth density. Each little blade adds up! Second, you must consider
how much time and money you really are ready to spend on your lawn.
The higher the maintenance lawn, the more you will need to put into
it. This is a very important factor. Third, your specific growing
conditions will affect which seed you should choose. Things like the
amount of sun, shade, rain, soil type, humidity and moisture can
affect how your lawn grows. Finally, what will you be using your lawn
for Your investment may differ if you lawn is a play area or for
show, or even for erosion control.
Once you determine these needs, you will be armed with the
information you need to make you decision on your seed. It all grows
up from there! And, if it grows, it must be mowed -- stay tuned for
secrets on THAT. Hint: it's not what you expect.
