It depends on the grass seed you are using. Please give Scotts a call at 877-465-5160, and we can see if we have a setting for you.

SOURCE: what settings to use for grass seed

If you are planning to overseed or reseed your yard, it would be best to use a rotary spreader instead of a drop spreader. When spreading seed set the spreader on 2 or 3, It really depends on the square footage of your yard. If you purchased seed from a local nursery or hardware store, read the bag and it will have the correct spreader setting on the bag. If you just bought a few pounds and the clerk weighted it up for you, you probably can call and ask the clerk for the spreader setting. But I'm pretty sure setting 3 will work just fine.

SOURCE: need settings for spreader for fescue grass seed

When spreading seed, the setting is not important. Adjust it high and go for a light dusting of VISABLE seed on the preped soil. Then rake in lightly. You can never put too much seed down unlike fertilizer. Good luck, and keep it wet for 30 days for best results!

What kind of grass seeds can i put down on my lawn and when is the best time to put them down?

Depends on what you want. As long as the soil temp is over 50, an it is now, you can seed the area. You must keep the seed wet until it takes hold. Then you apply fertilizer and then weed spray

I bought 2 bags of fast grass and 2 bags of regular for a project. Grass was spotty at best and I will never buy it again. Wasted 50 dollars on seed and dirt.

Maybe your money wasn't wasted. If the seed was used according to instructions and within date, you should demand your money back and provide evidence it didn't perform.

Rake it clean of thatch.

if you can see dirt, add seed

if you cannot see dirt, stab the area with a spade every 1 to 2 inches. then add seed. just a disperse layer of seed (not a full solid covering of seed)

cover with 1/8 inch of top soil, manure mulch/mushroom mulch or chopped straw

Does preem kill grassas growing out of ponds

I would not use Preen in your pond. Preen is a pre-emergent and needs to tie up in the top 2" of your soil. It does not kill existing grasses and weeds, only the germinating seed as the meristem evolves. Use a product specifically designed for aquatic use.

When can I plant grass after using Roundup?

You can plant or replant as soon as the weeds you sprayed are dead. Roundup is deactivated upon contact with the soil, it only affects the plant material sprayed.
