Planting and care
You can grow lawn grass by two methods, by direct sowing and by raising nursery. The best time for planting Bermuda grass seed is in late spring or early summer. In ideal condition, Bermuda seeds can germinate in seven to ten days and can fully grow as grass within 60 to 90 days. If conditions are not ideal, it may take longer time. During germination, Bermuda grass needs a lot of water and the soil needs to be always kept moist.
Use 1 – 1.3kg of seed per 1000 square feet. Start by raking the area to be seeded until it is as smooth as possible. Make a mixture of equal parts of sand and seed. The seed can be broadcast using a spreader or by hand for smaller areas. To avoid skips in the lawn, distribute half the mixture lengthwise and half of the mixture crosswise.
