Planting & Growing Instructions

Other Grass Seed - Winter Overseeding

PREPARE

Pennington 1 Step™ Winter Overseeding Mix is designed to provide a temporary lawn to enjoy while the weather is cool and your permanent lawn is brown and dormant.

  • For best results, spread 1 Step™ Overseeding Mix only after nighttime temperatures drop consistently below 65˚ Fahrenheit (19˚ Celsius) and your existing lawn begins to slow in growth and go dormant losing its existing green color.
  • Scalp existing lawn by cutting at the lowest setting possible on your mower.
  • Rake existing lawn to loosen soil, and remove debris and grass clippings.


APPLY

Adjust spreader to highest setting and apply Pennington
1 Step™ Overseeding beginning at the yard's perimeter working your way in as your passes continue.

  • For best results, overlap passes by at least half the width of your spreader to ensure maximum coverage when using a drop-spreader.
  • Repeat application in the opposite direction to form a crosshatch pattern.
  • Continue process until the entire 500-square-foot area of lawn is covered.


WATER

Keep the seeds and soil moist by watering the lawn twice daily with a light application for the first 4 days. On the 5th day, begin watering heavier every other day for 5 days. Once complete, water as needed to prevent wilting.
