Sowing Times; March to  June, September to October.
Before sowing, there are a couple of things to consider. This will  struggle to germinate in the Summer, and if you try to sow it in the  Winter, you will find that the seed will not germinate at all.

Yes, we sell grass seed all year round, that's because it stores  exceptionally well when it is kept properly. So although, yes you  might have bought it in the Winter, but that doesn't translate to  being able to germinate in the Winter.

Pre-Sowing Tips; Preparing your seedbed well goes a long way  to ensuring successful germination and the future production of a  fantastic lawn. One of the first things you'll consider is the  quality of the soil you are working with - determining what soil  type you have will help you greatly as in in some instances, you may  have extremely poor soil quality (e.g. leftover builders material in  a new build) and it may be advisable to add top soil. Other soil  types such as sandy, clay and loam can all be worked with but will  still need to be well prepared. The ideal seedbed should be free  from weeds, moss and other debris. It will also need to be well  draining to prevent water logging and of course, level.

The most import pre-sowing tips  to note is; AVOID FROSTS AT ALL COSTS.

To Sow A New Lawn; Dig the  soil over to a depth of 20-25cm then remove weeds by hand or use a  weed killer. Add top soil if you have found your soil to be of lower  quality, raking the area to get a level seedbed.

Sow the seed at our recommended rate of 50g per m2, by hand but it's  just as useful to use a seed spreader. After sowing rake the seed in  so the seeds are amongst the soil, which will need to be firmed down  by foot or a roller, to help encourage seed to soil contact.

To Overseed A Lawn; You'll  need to remove any dead grass, weeds or moss by scarifying or raking  the area, enough so the soil becomes loose. We recommend you sow the  seed at a rate of 35g per m2, by using a seed spreader or simply by  hand.

Once you've spread your seed, rake in enough that the soil and seed  are essentially one, then firm down by foot to improve seed to soil  contact.
