Can I just put the seed on top of my existing lawn, or do i have to Roto-till it first?

Yes, you can plant over an existing lawn, but it takes longer to be the low maintenance grass of straight NoMowGrass. It can take a while for NoMowGrass to crowd down existing lawn grasses, depending on the type of grass you had. And, as with any new grass planted, you will need to stay off the lawn as much as possible for a few weeks while the NoMowGrass develops its root system.

you can just broadcast the seed wherever you want and water it in(lightly) if it rains before it germinates it will wash to low spots.lightly raking over it will place a small amount of dirt over the seed helping it to stay in place.

Yes it can be goo for your lawn.dont add a bunch,but add a nice layer where your planting a hardy seed into,or established grass,or, brew many gallons of an enrichment tea and water your lawn that way.be a little sparring it can burn if your not careful.Heres to green growing.*thumbs up*

Yes you can use it to seed. I have used mine a couple of times to spread grass seed at a friends house. Just really pay attention to your controls because if not careful it will drain out too quickly. Start at the closed setting and slowly open the shoot to the desired setting. Some grass seeds are smaller than others. Hope this helps.

Weed controls can affect germination. Don't apply Scotts Turf Builder Weed & Feed to a newly seeded lawn until the grass is up and growing and has been mowed at least 4 times. If you apply the product prior to seeding, you will need to wait 4 weeks before seeding.

You must wait because the chemicals in weed killers will not allow for new grass to grow. Wait the 4 weeks then put down new dirt and seeds.

You can reseed a weeded yard. It will be more affected if the seed directly comes in contact with lose or bare soil.

you have enough seed to do both. use about a fourth of the seed each time. this gives you the opportunity to plant several times

You should wait at least 16 weeks after you apply Dimension before you plant grass seed. If you apply Dimension and then grass seed sooner, the grass seed probably will not germinate. The active ingredient in Dimension will just about stop all grassy type seeds from germinating, whether crabgrass seed or turf grass seed such as tall fescue, Kentucky blue, etc. There is a product called Tupersan which is also a pre-emergent crabgrass preventer. You can apply Tupersan and grass seed at the same time. The Tupersan will prevent crabgrass seed from germinating but will not prevent grass seed from doing so. Tupersan is much more expensive than Dimension and you cannot find it everywhere. My local garden center carries both Dimension and Tupersan. but depending upon where you live it may be hard to get. I noticed that Tupersan is available on Amazon, but the price is kind of shocking. See: http://www.amazon.com/Tupersan-PBI-Gordon-Corporation-Herbicides/dp/B004LN1K88 In any case, spring is not the ideal time to re-seed or over-seed your lawn. Autumn is the best time of year for doing that. If you can hold off until early September, I'd use the Dimension now and re-seed then. Good luck.

you c apply the turf builder right away, it will not harm the grass or the seed

u really can just scatter but then the seeds can move around when watered. so dirt on top holds them in place. where u put them is where they grow. they do not fill in or spread like normal grass. good for areas u cant grow grass.

No, you Will use "espoma seed starter just to grow your seeds, when your seedlings are 2 or 3 inches then you will transplant the seedling using pot mix soil (if using pots) or regular garden soil.

You could put dirt on top and plant grass but then you would have weeds again.

Yes you can. It is like a frame that can be filled with dirt and then planted.

I don't see why not. I bought some organic wheat (not this) and used it for grass seed. I was not about to put treated seed on my lawn. It grew beautifully.

Yes grind up is a better way to put it. It works well. I cut mine up and ran it through a spreader.
