I'm located in Maryland. I think the problem with the outside plants is
not enough water.

Do seeds need a certain amount of space to grow though?

No. Usually you overseed then thin out the seedlings after they get to
a certain size. Size is determined by root growth and top growth (only
makes sense). JUst unpot a well established plant and you can see how
dense roots can be and still have a healthy plant.
