QUICK And EASY Method To Plant Grass Seed // Seeding A New Lawn In Spring
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 25 июн 2024
- It's time to plant some grass seed and today I am planting my Elite Perennial Ryegrass in a small section in front of the house and I wanted to show how easy it can be to seed a new lawn area. Spring is not the ideal time for cool season grasses but can still be done so I also talk about some products to help with that and more tips and tricks as you head into summer.

The grass👑 has spoken and so it shal be done!!!!!!!
Ryan, just wanted to say congrats on your seed. I used the Rye last year for a full reno and can absolutely confirm that it provides incredible color. Well done sir 👍
You always have great tips which are much appreciated. Thanks Ryan
If anyone can pull off spring seeding it’s Mr Ryan Knorr. Good luck to your Hawkeyes this afternoon 👍
I've been seeding spring and fall for the past few years and spring has honestly worked better for me. We tend to have wet springs here in the Pacific Northwest. The fall over the past few years has been too dry and when it does start raining it's too cold for good germination.
It helps that our summers are not too hot.
I only do spring seeding as well. Never had issues so long as I cover it with something so birds don’t eat it. I don’t understand why people make it sound like spring is this impossible time to seed. I’ll do bare spots in mid summer too, it just takes more effort. I don’t even use good seed, just the Scott’s stuff from big box stores.
Yeah I'm willing to bet most people have never actually tried and are just repeating what they've heard online. For sure some places get too hot in the summer for infant grass plants to survive, but those places should reconsider growing grass in the first place.
This guy can grow grass on the moon if he wanted to. Cool video, RK!
This will be me in a week or so! I picked up a Groundskeeper II rake this spring. Perfect for creating a good seed bed. Highly recommended.
Looking forward to seeing it in a few weeks time.. loved the cross hatch on the main lawn you added in.
Always the best at what you just did.
Exactly what I needed Ryan! Thank you
Spring is such an exciting time watching Mother Nature bounce back from all the winter shenanigans. I use a tackifier to keep those seeds stick to the soil. Using straw in an urban environment is usually not very curb appealing. I’ve also used rolls of burlap.
I asked my son what he was doing in the bathroom. He said he was spreading grass seed. Now I get it.
Just finished seeding your tall fescue/KBG blend in my front yard today! I can’t wait for the final results 😁😮💨. Watering 2 times a day hopefully it starts germinating next weekend
I need to do this as well. Very timely video
Wow this channel has blown up! Congrats
Drop spreaders are great for this type of application.
This video should have more views than the channel has subscribers. Great stuff Knorr!
You're about to become a very busy man; again! :) Thanks for the video!
I'm never NOT busy :)
Nice quick and easy basic video for the average home owner. Little birds are killing my over seeding efforts even with straw. I have to invest in that blanket. I spend about $300-400 a year in landscape maintenance on 1/2 acre.. Wonder what you all spend.
Thanks Ryan. Your video is very helpful. Wonder if you have a close up to show the density of the seed after hand spraying it.
That's a good size flower bed area I have a few flower bed islands in my front yard and I put all the waste and leaves and compost in them I had softball sized rocks lining the beds I put them evenly spaced like Dubai world islands and put a ton of acorns before and sit thru the winter to settle I took a hand rake and covered a huge 20x30ft oval area with only half the area cause the rocks over seed like crazy and had a huge nettle problem buy pulled the weeds once established and just before the dry season so the holes left by the rocks helped pull the nettle and keep water I removed the world island rocks then all I had was little desert plate size holes wet them deeply added soil and seed wet deeply seed and dirt and proper water that how I got 3-5x the area done by hand the Swiss cheese way
Perfect size for a tee box right outside the front door....😉

what song is used during interludes on this video? it's a chill track!
Great video. Any plans on burying your rain gutter extensions this season?
Certainly on the list but the list is quite large :)
Have you done any videos (or recomendations) on putting down seed with different lbs per 1000sq/ft? I'm planting tall fescue (overseed with some areas of last season grub damage) and I've always thought 8-10 per 1000 for new seeding and 4-5 for overseeding but then other sources say anything over 4-5 is unnecessary for all situations... Love your videos!
On bare ground tall fescue would be 8-10. Overseeding just depends how thick the current lawn is and how aggressive you want to be. So usually 6-8
Hey, Ryan, what are your thoughts on pre-germination techniques for a plot that small?
With the blanket covering I don't have any issues with this method. Pre germ is more work
Yeah the peat moss method doesn’t work here in central Florida. It just washes away in our daily deluges in the summer.
Hey what’s going on brother how are you…I’m in NY and want to seed now…I’m guessing I can’t do pre emergent before I seed…what do you suggest?? I would like to have a nice lawn or as nice a lawn as possible this season.
Ryan, have you ever tried soaking your grass seed before seeding to help speed germination? Is it something you would recommend?
You certainly can but I don't have that kind of time to babysit it :)
I'm in Poweshiek county. Where are you located? Go Hawks!
Hi, Im Nei Great Beautiful, Im A Grass Peopll Too 😊
Our local garden center sells a clay cover to put over seed, that is like what baseball stadiums use for infield dirt. Have you used anything like this? heard of it, and by any chance know how it compares to other methods like peat moss or the straw blankets?
The product is called Primera Field Conditioner if you want to look into it more.
Personally I wouldn't want to put that over existing soil as you'll get some different texture things happening or layering.
@@ryanknorrlawncare I wonder why that is the option they both sell and recommend?
I got to be honest, sometimes I wonder if they know what they are doing. They have 1 fertilizing system all granular. This one clay seed cover option. Told me not use clover in a flower bed as it is not shade tolerant, when all things say it is, and it there is some already growing there on its own. Told me there was no pre-emergent to put down in the fall to prevent fall weeds like Henbit, or Purple Deadnettle, despite me finding them online.
Yeah I find that sometimes they just get product from a vendor and don't necessarily know how/why to use it but it's just there on the shelf haha
🌱👍
Hey Ryan,
I have two questions, please. I got a new concrete driveway and I had already placed pre-emergent this year,. Next to the driveway is a 3-inch wide/ deep gap along the entire lawn that I intend to fill with topsoil this coming week and I have your seed that I bought and so I wanted to fill and seed those sections; First question is - will the seed grow because technically it's all new topsoil, not mixed with the pre-emergent.. and this leads me into my second question, If I level the lawn with bulk topsoil after my pre-emergent has already been down, do you think ill get weeds because this now a new layer and will new grass grow above my leveling if I seed?
Thank you, long time sub.
Thanks for everything as always. You and Conner have been my go-to's. Much love from Michigan.
Btw - The candle is great, I only light it up during the winter months when I want the smell of spring. Love it. And your seed has been the best I've used to date.
Just to be safe I would try to break up that existing soil where you're going to add more on top just to break the barrier. A little garden cultivator or some sort of rake that you could be aggressive enough with to break things up would be fine. I would definitely anticipate some weeds in the bulk topsoil so just get grass going as good as you possibly can and then you can spray for weeds early summer after things have matured.
Do you prefer to put down the fertilizer at time of seedling or wait till the seed begins to germinate?
At seeding so you don't have to walk on the young grass
Please post the follow up, I never trust anything to do with seeing that says quick to give a full look so I’m curious to see how it does!
Have you ever thought about pre-germinating especially if you do Spring time seedings?
I would think with pre germination PR it is more work than necessary. PR germinates at early as 3 days and can look great in 2 weeks.
KBG I would think is always worth that extra effort.
I agree but in fall KBG is also very easy. The renovations I did last year were day 5-6 for the bluegrass. I think many people plant it too late when it's cold and then it is definitely slow.
Is ok to put down that elite ryegrass if you have kbg ? I mean will it completely look different color wise etc?
Yes as long as it's spread evenly it blends fine. It's slightly darker than blue and stripes great
Do you sell any grass for south texas or recommend anything besides Bermuda grass or St Agustina
Those are the best options
Im about to regrade my backyard, and reseed, would straw blankets help stop the dirt from getting washed away? Or do I just have to pray?
Yes they will help. Not absolutely 100% if a super heavy rain happens but they hug to the ground pretty well when wet
Hey Ryan, I’m in Michigan and the weather just broke, I moved to this new home in December and want to glyphosate it and plant new seed by early May. Do you think I could be successful with this project?
I'd wait until mid summer and start spraying out the lawn then and seed late summer
I have the elite tall fescue turf type and it says 10-12 pounds per 1,000 for new turf???
Also post seeding I use a very thin garden fleece blanket it's fairly cheap and very effective
Yes fescue is 10 pounds for bare soil
What kind of topsoil? Is it sandy mixed? 50/50?
Screened topsoil would be what it's called around here
Any recommendations for what grass seed is best for hot and dry summers? I need something that can withstand the sun, 105 degrees, without having to run a massive water bill every month.
With those temps you probably need a warm season grass
@@ryanknorrlawncare I kind of think so, but I live in Idaho, which I thought would be colder. The winters are fairly cold, but the summers are way too hot. - Would your Turf Tall Fescue survive those conditions?
Not for a prolonged period. There are some newer bermuda types that are pretty cold tolerant. I am testing some right now and have some new ones on my site
The weather is in the 45-70 temp range where I live in the Midwest. Am I able to start seeding now or should I wait until the temps get into the 60-90 range?
Yeah the forecast is looking pretty good for seeding. Uppers 60s/low 70s for highs is a good timeframe
@@ryanknorrlawncare Thanks Ryan! Last question - I just put down Scott’s weed & feed in a certain area of the yard. I believe I need to wait approx 6 weeks to seed that area if I understand correctly?
@@sammattei6421 that sounds about right. The product label should have some kind of seeding reference on there as far as timing
Ryan i just seeded some bare spots where crab grass died off last year 3 days ago but didn’t know I could put this pre emergent down… is it too late? Should I just wait until the crabgrass emerges and treat it then? If yes what do you recommend? Speed zone/ tenacity? Thanks for your knowledge!
As long as it hasn't germinated yet, you can still apply
@@ryanknorrlawncare Awesome thank you
I’m a noob in Utah and I’m preparing to nuke my lawn this week and do fresh rye/KBG.
Am I making a mistake? Should I wait until fall?
Personally I would wait until late summer/early fall
Do you worry about seeds in the straw blanket ?
The ones I get say weed free but I've never had any issues in general
What’s your soil temperature
Inching closer to mid 50s
why not pre germ the seed ?????????????
Rye grows very fast as is. Pre germ is a lot more work than it's worth for things like this in my opinion
