1. Let your new lawn dry for 24 hours so the glue in the mulch will attach to the soil.
2. After the first 24 hours, your lawn MUST
be kept moist enough that it is a CHOCOLATE BROWN COLOR,
But
NOT
Saturated,
at all times. Be careful not to over water and cause puddling or erosion.
3. Reduce water after your grass is between 2" to 3" high in all areas.
4. Keep ALL
traffic to a minimum for at least 3 weeks.
5. It is normal for weed seeds in your soil to germinate and grow faster than your new grass. As soon as ANY
weeds are 3" tall, MOW
them and use a grass catcher. Mowing will stunt the growth of weeds and your new lawn will soon take them over.
6. Fertilize your new lawn in ONE MONTH
with a good balanced lawn fertilizer such as Scotts™ Turf Builder. DO NOT USE
a weed and feed product at this time.
7. Fertilize again approximately 30 days later. You may use a weed and feed at this time if needed.
