Westland Gro-Sure Smart Lawn Seed is the ideal choice for homeowners looking to renovate patchy lawns or establish new grass in challenging environmental conditions, such as deep shade or high-traffic areas. The seed's standout benefit is its Aqua Gel coating, which optimizes moisture retention for superior germination rates; however, users should note that careful soil preparation is essential to achieve the advertised coverage and density.

Yes, it is highly recommended for overseeding at a rate of 25g per square metre.
Yes, keeping the soil moist after sowing is critical to activating the water-absorbing technology.
The coating is a natural moisture-retaining material, but it is standard practice to keep pets off the area until the grass is established.
Germination times depend on temperature and weather, but you can typically expect growth within a few weeks under favorable conditions.
Yes, using a calibrated wheeled spreader is encouraged for achieving the most uniform coverage.
Ensure the soil remains consistently moist and that the seed has firm, direct contact with the soil surface.
Use a calibrated mechanical spreader rather than hand-scattering to ensure even distribution of the 25g-35g per square metre requirement.
Rake the seeds into the top layer of the soil; the Aqua Gel coating is a deterrent but works best when the seeds are not sitting directly on the surface.
To prepare your lawn, start by removing all weeds and large stones from the target area. Gently rake the soil to create a fine, loose, and level tilth. Before opening the bag, shake it thoroughly to ensure the coated seeds are evenly mixed, as the coating may settle during transport. After scattering, lightly rake the surface to bury the seed slightly, then firm the ground by walking over the area or using a lawn roller. Keep the area consistently moist for the first few weeks after sowing to activate the Aqua Gel. Avoid using heavy chemicals or moss killers on the new area until the grass is fully established.
