I slept outside watching the grass all night at around 3.45am on “ Grasswatch “ I spotted a star in the sky and thought perhaps this is a sign but then had a thought , that’s Xmas not Easter nick that’s a great idea I will measure all the holes later

Day eights picture to follower

Day bloody 8 still no show .

Hey Jason.

Grass seed is best sown from late summer to mid-autumn; there is less competition from weeds, and the soil is warm, and damp from rain. Perfect for seeds to germinate. If you miss the opportunity to sow in autumn, try in mid-spring, but only if you can give the new grass plenty of water.

Hope this helps mate

All the best

Cant you just "find" a bit of grass and dig a hunk of turf out and trim to size and chuck in and stomp it down I bet Nick has a nice lawn
