If you are considering growing a lawn for the outside of your home then I might be able to give you some advice on how you successfully grow a lawn with minimal effort. There is really more to growing a lawn than just planting grass seeds.
The various kinds of grass that are there do not all grow well in the same environment. So you have to think about the amount of rain that you receive; access to the sun and the amount of shade that you can provide or that is needed. The best way to spend as little time as possible trying to grow your grass is to choose one that is suited to the area that you are living in. Centipede, Bermuda or Buffalo grass will grow very well in moist and cool areas.
Some other great planting ideas can be found under any of the following: grass seed comparisons grass seed reviews grass seed germination
When it comes to planting it will also depend on whether you are planting a new lawn totally or on ground that has an existing lawn and you just want to replenish it. If the ground has never been planted then it must be thoroughly cleared to make sure nothing competes with your lawn as it grows. Uproot as much of everything as is possible. Most plants can grow just from the roots that are left behind when clearing so you want to make sure that this does not happen
The seeds need to be spread evenly so that there are no patches when the lawn does grow. The soil should be loose and the seeds be covered by another layer of this soil.
It is only while it is still growing that you need to pay attention to a lawn after that its just the occasional trimming and cutting. A lawn should have enough water but it should never become water clogged. You can use fertilizer but weed killer only after you are sure that it is now strong.
