Initial preparation of planting your grass is clearing the ground. There must be nothing capable of growing on its own after the ground has been cleared. This is so that your lawn is not choked by weeds or blade grass as it grows. If the ground is cleared thoroughly then you will spend little time looking after it once it has grown. You will know that once it has sprouted you just water and trim it that’s all.
The reason for this is that after your lawn has grown weeds have little chance of growing at the same time. Fot those that are staying in the hot and dry climate then they might consider Buffalo grass, Centipede or Bermuda grass. Blue grass and Rye grass is more suited for those areas that have cool and moist conditions. It is only when a lawn is still small that it requires lots of care and maintenance after it has sprouted the rest is routine.
You will always find a tag or label attached to the seeds you buy, pay attention to the information on it. Normally this should have information on the type of grass that it is and the conditions that it will adapt well to.
