Peat Moss main quality is it’s ability to absorb 10x it’s weight and keeps the seed moist so much better. Peat moss also lets u know when the area needs watered as it’s reddish when dry and dark dark brown when wet.
I loved the simple and straight to the point instructions. I am having issues with my grass but it's because my dogs have destroyed it. I also live in Florida and the grass here is called St.Augusting grass. I am wondering if your technique will work here in Florida? We don't use seeds but we use sod. Any advised would be appreciated. Thank you
It would be a little different since you are planting sod, Proper soil and grading preparation is necessary to ensure a good surface. Without a smooth surface, the mower will cut highs and lows. I have seen a lot of scalped yards because of poor preparation. Since the roots are not anchored into the soil for few weeks, it is necessary to water everyday to keep the grass from drying out. Don’t water heavily, you don’t want to water log the soil. Don’t mow until the grass has sufficient root and is anchored to the soil or it may lift and be cut by the mower blades. Plugging and sprigging are other ways of planting St Augustine grass. Plugging is planting grass squares while sprigging is planting the grass stolons. The plugs should be place from 6 to 12 inches apart. St Augustine grass can be plugged at 24 inches apart, but will take longer to fill in. If using stolons, the stolons must be covered over with a thin layer of dirt except for the grass blades. This encourages rooting. I hope this helps and thank you for watching!!!
What are my chances of having lawn appear if I just scatter seeds on top of my currently dead-looking lawn and skip all the other steps besides watering lol?
For a small spot I used a hand full, but if you are doing a large area follow the instructions on the bag!! I actually use starter fertilizer only when reseeding!! Thank you for watching!!
Peat moss has been used as a soil amendment for so long because it has a lot to offer. For clay and heavy soils that get compact easily, it softens the soil structure and improves the drainage. For sandy soil, peat moss helps retain moisture and nutrients for plant roots. Peat moss is an important component of most potting soils and seed starting mediums. It holds several times its weight in moisture, and releases the moisture to the plants roots as needed. It also holds onto nutrients so that they aren’t rinsed out of the soil when you water the plant.

Please stop. Unless you can explain how peat moss improves the soil😢.
