Super quality shaded seed

First time using grassseed online and the experience has been awesome! I have a medium sized lawn with tree and hedge shade along side full sun areas. I opted for shaded area grass seed as the description said it would also grow well in full sun. I'm new to reseeding so this is by no way the actions of an expert. Just someone who researched well. I scarifier, raked,airated and watered with iron sulphate. I then fertilised and levelled with topsoil and a lute. Seeded heavily everywhere so that the pigeons wouldn't make a dent in the quantity. I then lightly rollered the seed in and put down a thin blanket layer of topsoil. I completed this task around the end of April. Scarifying absolutely destroyed the lawn and took it back to bare soil in many areas but I trusted the process and watered 3 times a day every day so that the seed was nicely saturated but not drowned. Well... the result is exceptional ! My lawn is now thick and lush EVERYWHERE! It took on average 12 days for the seed to germinate but in some very shaded areas it took up to 20 days. The results are amazing! I have a few 'hand sized' patches here and there but not many. These will get sorted out through the summer. I ordered 20kg of seed and I have a 300sqm lawn area. I used about 3/4 of the bag. This stuff is awesome. The full sun areas are also thriving. Definitely worth the money .
