New Seeding
Prepare the soil by tilling to a depth of 4–6 inches. Conduct a soil test to be sure your soil has the proper nutrients it needs for a healthy lawn. Apply fertilizer and lime at the recommended rates. If you are unable to conduct a soil test, apply lime and a complete lawn fertilizer according to the recommended rates on the packages. Work lime and fertilizer evenly into the soil, then rake the soil surface smooth to give the seed an ideal bed in which to establish healthy roots. Sow the grass seed by evenly spreading according to the recommended seeding rates. Rake, harrow or otherwise work the seed into the soil ¼” to ½” deep. Keep the area well-watered until the seeds germinate and the seedlings have grown sufficiently to establish a lawn, then water as needed.
Improving Bare Spots
Mow your lawn closely, then remove leaves, dead grass, etc. Rake, harrow lightly or aerate the bare spots to prepare the seedbed. Conduct a soil test to be sure the soil has the proper balance of nutrients. Fertilize and lime if needed.

The length and overall health of the Pennington Annual Ryegrass Market Grass Seed will depend on soil factors such as NPK nutrients and soil ph. We would suggest before seeding to have a soil analysis done by the Master Gardener with the Cooperative Extension Office or with one of our Soil Testing Kits and Soil ph Kits.
A great resource for homeowners is the Master Gardener with the County Extension Office. This division of the local university is available for homeowners to assist with knowing the best time to treat for certain weed control, getting a soil analysis done, what active ingredient or product recommendation is best in that area and also the best time to apply a pre and post emergent for the best lawn care schedule.
