When Should You Plant Midwest Mix?

Planting season guides for Midwest generally suggest:

  • Spring Planting

    Late March - May

    Seeding from mid-April through May can work well if soil is moist and temperatures stay moderate.

  • Best Time

    Fall Planting

    Mid August - Mid Sept

    Seeding in early fall (mid-October to mid-September) gives young grass a chance to build roots while soil is still warm and air temperatures are milder.

  • Late Summer

    Early August

    Start seeding while soil is still warm to give grass a head start before fall.

How to Apply

  • Preparation

    Remove debris and rough spots to prepare a smooth seedbed

  • Seeding

    Spread seed evenly across the lawn area

  • Work In The Seed

    Work seed lightly into the upper soil layer for good soil contact

  • Water The Seed

    Water gently and regularly to keep soil moist

  • Mowing

    Before mowing, allow new grass to grow roughly 3 inches 

  • Water Maintenance

    Keep moisture consistent until the grass has rooted well and starts to grow stronger.
