Seeding a New Lawn.
We’ve all heard real estate agents talk about “curb appeal” since it contributes so much to first impressions of a property and house. Following construction of a new house, it’s necessary to plant the lawn once construction has been completed, even if the weather isn’t conducive to growing a lawn. If there is a choice, fall (September in the northeast) is the best time to seed a lawn, and spring (April) is the second best time of year.
Read grass seed labels for important information about the seed varieties, germination percentage,and weed seed content.
Even though you have little control over the amount of topsoil left on your building site, you can choose to use top quality seed and make all the proper adjustments to the soil chemistry by performing a soil test.
