ᐅ Buying Guide for Grass Seed

Hello everyone,

We plan to sow grass soon. Are there any recommendations?

About 120 sqm (1300 sq ft), mostly sunny, only shaded in the evening hours. It should be a "play" lawn since our kids are still young.

Is a standard off-the-shelf seed mix from the hardware store sufficient, or what should be used?

Do you want to sow or lay rolls?

My parents chose sports turf at the time and were satisfied with it. We will also opt for a very durable lawn because of the children.

So, if extreme shade doesn’t interfere, a type of sports turf is the first choice. The main thing is durability.

Hello, I searched online for GF Sun Grass Pro. The supplier also offers other blends; we chose one of them and are very satisfied.

Have a look at the varieties included in each mixture. For typical locations (no extreme shade), in my opinion, a standard mix is sufficient. More important than the seed itself is the care after sowing, meaning regular mowing to ensure the right varieties thrive well. Nutrient supply should also be adequate.

Is there also grass that grows very slowly, for example? So that you don’t have to mow it often later on, or are they all about the same?

There is one, but in my opinion, it is not durable enough for children. It simply heals slowly.
