Expert lawn care advice from Charlotte’s trusted professionals
Successfully establishing a new lawn from seed requires careful preparation and attention to timing. The best results come from following a systematic approach tailored to our Piedmont climate.
Use a broadcast spreader for even seed distribution at recommended rates. For Charlotte's Piedmont region, fall seeding (September-November) provides the best success rates. Keep soil consistently moist but not waterlogged for the first 3 weeks until germination occurs.
Avoid walking on newly seeded areas and delay the first mowing until grass reaches 3-4 inches in height.
