Before you get on the grass seeds, prepare the ground properly so that the seedlings are well accepted. First of all, remove weeds and old turf handmade or with the help of a tiller. Cut the earth twice to remove the roots of old vegetation. Dark the soil thoroughly. Gliniast-sandy soil is usually best suited to sowing grass.
