Seeding & overseeding
Sowing seed: what the soil needs to be doing, and how long each step really takes. Start with the overseeding timing guide.
- How long does grass seed take to grow?Grass seed germinates in 5 to 10 days at 8°C and above, and up to four weeks for slow species. Soil temperature sets the clock, and here is how to read yours.
- Overseeding: the full timing guideOverseeding fails on timing far more often than technique. How to pick the window, and why autumn has a deadline most people count from the wrong end.
- What soil temperature grass seed actually germinates atGrass seed germinates on soil temperature, not the calendar. The real thresholds by species, how long each takes, and why sustained warmth matters.
