Prepare the soil – Loosen the top couple of inches of soil, remove debris, fertilise with a decent starter fertiliser, avoid using weed killers before and after sowing. Do not apply in windy conditions. Keep off skin and away from eyes. Avoid walking on treated areas until it has rained or product has been watered in.
