Cultivation mode
Plantation : Before sowing, you must mix the seed with either concrete sand or sawdust. This will increase the volume and make it easier to distribute the seed evenly. Make mix 1 part seeds with 10 to 15 parts of sand or sawdust. For the best soil-seed contact, compact the soil with a half-filled lawn roller or lightly stamp with your feet.
Soil : Before sowing it is essential to expose the soil and mix it to loosen it. Though this seems laborious, the turf must be removed and all weeds must be eliminated. Once the soil is prepared and debris eliminated, rake the surface to level it.
Culturals practices : The first 2 weeks after the sowing are the most crucial. If it does not rain, optimum germination requires surface watering every day. After these 2 weeks, if there is still no rain, a longer watering should be done every 5 to 6 days; the water must now reach the roots. It is best to water in the morning to avoid diseases. After 6 to 8 weeks, when the plants are well established, watering your meadow is no longer necessary.
