Wet Soils & Clay Grass Seed

From

Price range: £47.00 through £127.00

Grass seed for clay soils that often sit wet or suffer from occasional flooding. Sometimes a wet lawn is unavoidable, especially on a clay soil, so it makes perfect sense to select a grass seed mixture that will tolerate wet soil conditions.

Heavy clay soils are often saturated in the winter, but can rapidly turn bone dry in the summer. Our Wet Soils Grass Seed contains tall fescue which is deep rooted and extremely tolerant of this type of soil condition.

MIXTURE CONTENTS:

  • 40% Perennial ryegrass
  • 40% Tall fescue
  • 20% Strong creeping red fescue

Waste of £75

We bought this seed because our garden has a lot of clay and gets water logged in the winter.
The grass seed looked lovely until the recent hot weather. Despite watering every night.
The green is the old grass. Yellow is this grass seed.

If I could give negative stars I would. £75 is a lot of money to throwaway!!

We understand your frustration and want to assure you that the quality of our seeds is our top priority. The recent hot weather may have affected the growth of your grass seed. It's important to keep in mind that hot and extended dry spells can make it difficult for seed to germinate. Additionally, fescue can take up to 21 days to germinate, so it's possible that the remaining seeds are still in the process of growing. We recommend continuing to water and care for the area, and we are confident that you will see the results of our high-quality seed soon. Please do not hesitate to reach out to us if you have any further concerns.

Very different results from 2 identical bags

We bought a big bag of your grass seed for clay soils at the start of the year and sowed it in the spring.
The grass came through very patchy which we assumed was due to the clay soil.
We bought a second bag of exactly the same seed more recently and sowed it a few weeks ago along the back strip of the lawn.
This seed has grown far more quickly than the first batch and is a lovely lush green.
We have attached a photo to show the contrast.
I think my husband ordered the first bag and I bought the second bag.
Would the first bag have been old seed from the previous year as the quality of the second bag is far superior to the first bag?

Thank you for your review and for bringing this to our attention. We're sorry to hear about the inconsistent results you've experienced with our Wet Soils & Clay Grass Seed.

It's possible the recent hot spells have affected germination and growth, which may have contributed to the patchiness in your lawn.

We recommend storing grass seed in a cool, dry place and using it within a year for best results. For more information on grass seed storage, please check out this helpful article: https://www.grassseedonline.co.uk/how-long-can-grass-be-stored/.

We're glad to hear that the second bag of seed has produced a lush and green lawn for you. If you have any further questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to reach out to our customer service team.

Thank you for choosing our product and we hope your lawn continues to thrive.
