   Can you plant grass seed on a new lawn?

   • Sowing grass seed on a new lawn requires more seed and more work than seeding an existing lawn. In both cases, you’ll need to remove weeds, moss, and dead grass and rake the area first. A new lawn also requires levelling the ground and, ideally, protecting the seed from birds and pets.

   Can you plant grass seed by hand?

   • For an existing lawn, you can start sowing grass seed by hand once you’ve prepared the spots that need it. Adding fertiliser promotes the growth of grass on both new and existing lawns. You may also want to add compost or topsoil, but be careful not to bury the seeds too deep into it.

   • Measure Area to Be Seeded. Measure the width and length of the area to determine how much grass seed to buy. Once you have these figures, plug them into a grass seed calculator.
   • Buy Grass Seed. Do some research and pick a grass seed best suited to the area you will be seeding. If you live in the North, that will be some type of cool-season grass.
   • Break Up the Soil. Use the garden rake and/or garden shovel to remove weeds, rocks, and dead grass from the area. For bare spots, dig down about 6 inches with the shovel to loosen the soil.
   • Add Compost. Add compost to the soil to give your seed a good start. Compost will provide fertilizer to the seedlings and much more. It also improves the soil's aeration and ability to hold water.

   • Remove Weeds. Remove existing grass or weeds. Use a shovel to dig out plants, being careful to remove as many roots as possible. If the area to be seeded is large and filled with weeds, consider renting a seed cutter to make fast work of the job.
   • Enrich the Soil and Smooth Surface. After removing weeds, add a 2-inch layer of well-decomposed compost. Organic matter such as compost can improve soil drainage while adding valuable nutrients.
   • Plant the Grass Seed. Sow grass seed over small areas by scattering it by hand. A drop spreader makes this job easier for larger areas. No matter the method you use, spread the seed on a calm day—the wind will scatter the seed unevenly.
   • Protect the Seed. Rake the entire area to cover the seeds with a thin layer of soil. A leaf rake is a perfect tool for small areas. For larger areas, you may want to use a harrow, which is pulled behind a lawn tractor.
