Valentine’s Day Red hearts think green grass

Planting Grass seed now, you’re nuts I don’t about you but here we’ve got three feet of snow. First all gardening stuff is on big sale because it’s February.

Planting cool-season grasses like rye grasses and bluegrasses while snow is on the ground is actually recommended, as the freezing temperatures cracks the hulls of the seed making it easier to sprout create cracks in the ground that help the seeds make it deeper into the soil. As the snow melts, the seeds make their way down into the soil. When the ground begins to defrost, the grass will begin to grow. Pour the grass seed into a bucket.

Scoop out some grass seed with a coffee can.

Use a shovel to dig into the snow and locate your grass line, to make sure you are planting where you want to.

Sprinkle the grass seed onto the top of the snow, spreading the seed out equally. You should still be able to see snow between the seeds as they lay on top of it.

If you do not, you have placed too much seed on the snow.
