Green Thumb Grass Seed Mixture

Yes, this blend is formulated for both starting a new lawn from scratch and overseeding existing turf. It is particularly effective for overseeding because the moisture-retaining coating helps the new seeds establish themselves among existing grass.

You can expect to see initial germination in as little as 5 days under ideal conditions, though the full germination process generally takes between 5 and 21 days depending on soil temperature and moisture levels.

Yes, the mixture includes a blend of ryegrasses, fescues, and bluegrass, which are selected specifically for their ability to adapt to varying light conditions. It performs reliably in areas ranging from full sun to partial shade.

The coating is designed to absorb and hold moisture around the seed, which creates a more consistent micro-environment for germination. This significantly improves your success rate, especially in challenging soil conditions or during periods where you cannot water as frequently.

A single 3 lb bag provides coverage for approximately 1,200 square feet when used for overseeding. If you are starting a new lawn, you may need more seed per square foot to achieve the desired density.

The optimal planting times are during the spring or early fall. These seasons offer the moderate temperatures and consistent moisture levels that these specific grass varieties need to establish strong roots.
