Thanks for all of the replies!

How long should one continue to water after the seeds have germinated
and are about 1" high?

thanks,

Hi All,

How high does the new grass sprouts need to be before mowing after
overseeding? I overseeded a couple weeks ago with K31 ( yes, I know not
the best ), and the new sprouts are about 1" now. The thing is the
old grass and weeds are starting to get out of control. Is it best to
wait for the new grass to get some height before mowing?


Many thanks for any advice!

This is a judgment call. Typically, I prefer to wait until it is
absolutely necessary to mow, and only then with ideal conditions. The
ground is not wet, the mower blade is sharp. Two weeks is not
enough, one month is better.
