Sowing Rate:

  • New Sowing: 1kg per 100m². 
  • Oversowing: Use half sowing rate.

Sowing, Establishment & Maintenance Tips:

  • Optimum Soil Type: Sandy Loam. Ask your local soil supplier for a good quality lawn soil mix.
  • Starter Fertiliser: Use KickStart Starter Fertiliser to ensure successful germination.
  • Sowing: Follow our Sowing Instructions for best results.
  • Watering: For the first 30 days after seeding watering may be necessary 3-4 times a day. For best results seed bed should not be allowed to dry out.
  • Watering Requirements: Drought tolerant variety. Irrigation is required in extended dry periods. We recommend watering Couch lawns deeply at least once a week in summer or when there is no rainfall.
  • Germination Time: In Optimal Conditions you may see germination in 10-12 days.  Note: When sowing out of season this can take longer.  
  • Mowing: First mow: When well established at around 40-50mm height. Take only the tips and gradually reduce blade height. To keep a quality lawn maintain a regular mowing schedule. 
  • Establishment: Allow 2 months for establishment before the onset of Autumn in Southern States or before any significantly cooler weather in your location.
  • Regular Fertilising: Follow our Fertilising Instructions to ensure your lawn stays healthy throughout the seasons including Autumn and Spring fertilising.
