Renovate My Garden With Me: Installing A Lawn Part 1
Hi everyone, welcome to part 1 of my “Creating a lawn from scratch” video series.
I’m Brad, a greenkeeper and groundsperson with more than 10 years’ experience working with grass. After moving into my own home I’m finally getting the chance to renovate my own garden – and it’s safe to say it has been a process! In this video, I’m preparing the ground to seed a lawn and digging out the old washing line base, which turned out to be a big challenge.
The detailed video you need to seed the perfect lawn
Welcome to my lawn renovation video series!
In this video, I’m discussing seed type & quality, and the experiment I’m doing with seeding my own lawn. I decided to pre-germinate half the seed and sow the other half straight out onto the soil. I also covered a portion of the lawn with a grow sheet. It’ll be interesting to see how these actions affect the grass growth in different areas of the lawn.
I hope you find this video informative or perhaps just relaxing, I know these videos can be a great way to wind down after a long day!
