Frequently Asked Questions
Can you plant grass seed in the winter?
Yes. As long as soil temperatures are above 3°C and no frost is forecast, winter grass seed will germinate. For best results, choose a winter-formulated blend.
What is the best grass seed for winter overseeding?
A winter ryegrass mix is best for overseeding in cooler months. It's bred to germinate at lower temperatures, helping lawns recover quickly. Using a germination blanket during mild spells can improve results further.
How to store grass seed over the winter?
Keep grass seed dry and away from frost. A cool, well-ventilated place without moisture or direct heat will preserve quality until the next sowing season.
