Seedbooster® Seed Treatment

SeedBooster® is an innovative two in one seed coating developed for the professional turf market.

An innovative two in one seed coating developed for the professional turf market. Each seed is wrapped in its own parcel of fast and slow release fertiliser, the seed germinates sooner and establishes faster resulting in up to 30% more grass and a denser law than by sowing seed and fertiliser separately. This makes it particularly effective when used on slower to establish finer grasses, such as those in Shady Place and Luxury Lawn and for improving existing lawns with Johnsons Lawn Thickener. An added benefit is that the coating also acts as a harmless deterrent to birds.
 

Suitable for both new and existing lawns.

Apply between March & October, when soil is warm above 10°C and grass is actively growing. For best results, apply straight after mowing and remove clippings to ensure excellent seed-to-soil contact. 

 

How much to use

Use a rate of 35g per m2 fo a new lawn and 20g per m2 for overseeding an existing lawn.

Handy guide: one average handful is approx 32g

Lawn after care

  • Immediately after sowing: Water throughly to settle the seed into the soil
  • During the first 2 weeks: Keep the area consistently moist to support strong germination and avoid heavy traffic while grass establishes (this includes pets)
  • Weeks 1 to 2: Once the grass reaches around 5-8cm, you can mow for the first time. Keep the mower blades high for early cuts.
  • Weeks 3 to 4: Gradully return to your normal mowing height and routine as the grass strengthens.
  • Ongoing: Reapply or overseed worn areas seasonally, this is to maintain lawn thickeness.
