Before applying seed, loosen soil depth 4 to 6 inches. Remove all large rocks, trash and debris from the seed bed. Incorporate organic compost or mulch and gypsum into the bags. Rake soil to a level grade. For best results, roll entire area using a regular lawn roller. Rolling is important to firm the soil to help you get a more uniform and rapid germination. Do not roll heavy clay or adobe soils (this may cause too much compaction). After rolling, rake soil again to fill in any depressions and continue rolling and raking until you have a firm and level seedbed.

Before applying seed, and while the soil is still loose, apply a starter fertilizer at the recommended application rate. Lightly rake into the top 1/2 inches of soil. Starter fertilizers are high in phosphorus, and are designed to help grass develop strong roots and mature stems, before top growth begins, to ensure your lawn is off to the best possible start.

Coated Majestic Bermuda grass seed should be applied at a rate of approximately three lbs. per 1000 sq. ft. (for a thicker stand you may use up to five lbs. per 1000 sq. ft.) Spread Majestic Bermuda Seed uniformly on the soil surface. This can be done by using the shaker lids on the Majestic container for small areas or by using a fertilizer spreader or drop-type spreader. A broadcast spreader may be used but is less uniform. To ensure uniform coverage, the amount of seed to be used should be divided in half and spread in an east-west direction and then the other half in a north-south direction. Seed should not be planted at a depth of more than 1/4 inch of soil. Roll entire area again and wet thoroughly. Soil should be kept moist until seedlings reach at least 1 inch in height. If the seedbed is allowed to dry out the seed will not survive.

In the spring, for warmer climates, seedlings should be done after March 15th. For colder climates, a good rule of thumb is to wait until the soil temperatures reach 65 degrees. Early planting will give Majestic a head start on annual weeds and allow it to make good growth before extreme hot weather arrives.

If planted in the summer, special attention must be given to watering due to high temperatures. The soil dries very rapidly in the summer, increasing the chance of the soil drying out during germination and establishment.

For best results, establish a plan or program of lawn care. A beautiful lawn needs, in addition to proper mowing and watering, regular applications of lawn fertilizers, and weed and insect control. Consult your local nursery professional for the products best suited for your area.

All Bermudagrass varieties will go dormant in the winter. Bermudagrass may be overseeded with a hardy grass such as Annual or Pernnial Ryegrass without doing damage to the Bermudagrass.

Instructions

When choosing to start a new lawn, remove old vegetation by using a de-thatcher, power rake or tiller to kill the existing vegetation. Rake or drag the area to remove debris and dead grass for a clean area. Ensure the soil is leveled and loosened to allow the seed to have good soil contact once spread on a clean seed bed.

If you have an area with heavy weed coverage, we recommend starting fresh by killing and removing the existing vegetation. If you choose to use chemicals, herbicides or fertilizers, you must check with the product's manufacturer prior to planting new seed to ensure the proper waiting period.

When overseeding an existing area, mow your lawn at the lowest setting and bag the clippingsx. Rake or drag any areas that have dead thatch or debris.
