Q: Will grass grow in aeration holes?

• <div><p>Yes, after the lawn is overseeded post-aeration, most of the seed germinates in the aeration holes. This leaves the soil undisturbed while lush and healthy grass will grow in the holes' place. The point of this is to create extra turf density in areas that really need it, such as a large patch of dead grass where a shed used to be.</p></div>

Q: How long should I wait to walk on new grass?

• <div><p>The time you should wait before walking on new grass depends on whether you used seed or sod. If you laid new grass seed, it's best to wait about eight weeks before stepping on it, as new grass is fragile. For sod, it typically establishes itself in the ground in about two weeks. For heavy traffic, like driving a car across a new grass driveway, you might need to wait an entire season.</p></div>

Q: How do I fix my lawn on a budget?

• <div><p>There are a few ways to fix your lawn on a budget, including:</p><ul><li><p>Identify the lawn care problem and learn how to seed, fertilize, and aerate your lawn. </p></li><li><p>Reseed old, damaged lawn with new grass that fares better in your environment. </p></li><li><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-remove-grass.htm">Remove grass from your yard</a> so you no longer need to worry about lawn care costs.</p></li></ul><p></p></div>

Q: How long does it take for no-mow grass to germinate?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/grass-seed-germination-guide.htm#how-types-of-grass-germinate">Fine fescue grass can germinate</a> within 12 to 22 days. Of course, factors such as soil and climate can determine how long it will take for your no-mow grass to sprout. New grass seed needs adequate sunshine, oxygen, moisture, and healthy soil for successful germination. The best time to plant fescue grass is early spring or early fall. </p></div>

Q: Can grass seeds be stored in garages?

• <div><p>Unfortunately, garages are one of the worst places to store grass seeds, despite their proximity to yards. Garages are hot and humid, two environmental traits that are detrimental to grass seeds. Grass seed has the best chance of survival in a dry space with temperatures ranging from 30 to 60 degrees Fahrenheit. </p><p>With that in mind, the best place to store seeds is in a sealed container in the refrigerator or in the coolest part of your home.

Lawn Irrigation questions, answered by experts

Yes, after the lawn is overseeded post-aeration, most of the seed germinates in the aeration holes. This leaves the soil undisturbed while lush and healthy grass will grow in the holes' place. The point of this is to create extra turf density in areas that really need it, such as a large patch of dead grass where a shed used to be.

The time you should wait before walking on new grass depends on whether you used seed or sod. If you laid new grass seed, it's best to wait about eight weeks before stepping on it, as new grass is fragile. For sod, it typically establishes itself in the ground in about two weeks. For heavy traffic, like driving a car across a new grass driveway, you might need to wait an entire season.

There are a few ways to fix your lawn on a budget, including:

Identify the lawn care problem and learn how to seed, fertilize, and aerate your lawn.
Reseed old, damaged lawn with new grass that fares better in your environment.
Remove grass from your yard so you no longer need to worry about lawn care costs.

Fine fescue grass can germinate within 12 to 22 days. Of course, factors such as soil and climate can determine how long it will take for your no-mow grass to sprout. New grass seed needs adequate sunshine, oxygen, moisture, and healthy soil for successful germination. The best time to plant fescue grass is early spring or early fall.

Unfortunately, garages are one of the worst places to store grass seeds, despite their proximity to yards. Garages are hot and humid, two environmental traits that are detrimental to grass seeds. Grass seed has the best chance of survival in a dry space with temperatures ranging from 30 to 60 degrees Fahrenheit.

With that in mind, the best place to store seeds is in a sealed container in the refrigerator or in the coolest part of your home. Also, limit your seeds’ access to sunlight for the best germination results down the line.
