Grass seed that regrows your lawn 'within a week' is less than £15
The Pronto Seed has gathered rave reviews on Amazon thanks to its ability to transform grass in a matter of days If you're looking at your grass and it's patchy you might want to think about reseeding it. And if you think that is a lengthy process which will take a long time to show any effect, that's not the case. Gardeners are delighted with the results from a product sold on Amazon which they say is giving results in just days. Pronto Seed, which comes in a 1.4kg box, has impressed customers who have bought it. And it's become a best-seller on the site, possibly down to the 21.8K reviews and the 4.2 star rating. Pronto's Speedy Seed appears to do exactly what it says on the box and give rapid regrowth so your lawn can be lush and green for summertime. Speedy Seed is £14.49 and the box will cover 84m² meaning one box will go a long way. And it promises to transform your lawn, giving you lush coverage within seven to 14 days. With one pack 84m² of grass can be rejuvenated when overseeding or gardeners can establish 42m² of new grass. It's also engineered for our unpredictable UK climate. Pronto Seed also withstands heavy foot traffic, harsh weather and shady or sunny spots, making it the ideal choice for this time of year when the weather remains changeable, reports the Mirror. And it's also durable enough to withstand energetic pets and children, ensuring that once your lawn is back in shape, it won't disappear again after one afternoon in the garden. Applying it is also an easy process. Gardeners need to rake up as much of the dead grass as possible and then sprinkle the seed over the exposed soil. This should be followed by raking in the seed and then watering. You should start to see results within a week. There are other options for fast-acting grass seed on the market. Wickers offers this Gro-Sure Fast Acting Lawn Seed for £17.50. Amazon also sell Miracle-Gro's Evergreen Fast Grass Lawn Seed for £10.39 as a cheaper option. But the Pronto Seed seems to be working for plenty of householders who have rushed to Amazon to give their results. One satisfied customer raved: "I used this Pronto Seed to overseed some patchy areas in my garden, and the results were impressive. "Within a week, I noticed new grass sprouting, and by two weeks, the lawn looked much fuller and healthier. The 1.4 kg bag covered a substantial area, making it great value for money. "The grass is thick, vibrant, and seems to handle foot traffic well. It's also resilient in both sunny and shaded spots. Overall, a reliable choice for anyone looking to rejuvenate their lawn quickly." Another buyer said: "I recently purchased Pronto Seed Grass Seed to rejuvenate my lawn, and I am thrilled with the results! "After carefully preparing my garden and ensuring the right conditions for growth, I can confidently say that this product has exceeded my expectations in delivering a lush, green lawn." They go on to add: "One of the most impressive aspects of Pronto Seed Grass Seed is its fast germination. Within a week of sowing, I noticed tiny green sprouts emerging from the soil. "The seeds sprouted quickly and evenly, filling in patches and creating a uniform carpet of grass that looks fantastic. By the third week, the grass had grown significantly and started to thicken, giving my lawn a full and healthy appearance." And they concluded: "Overall, Pronto Seed Grass Seed is an outstanding product for anyone looking to achieve a lush, green lawn. With fast germination, dense growth, and vibrant colour, this seed mix can transform your outdoor space into a beautiful and inviting area. Just be sure to provide the right conditions, and you'll be rewarded with a lawn that's the envy of the neighbours." A third shopper chimes in: "Had to write a review as this grass seed is amazing! Started growing after only one week! Since then have been drenching with water each night and more and more grass appearing! Fantastic results!" Some weren't quite as impressed: "The results were just okay, nothing special and I didn't notice to grow faster then the normal grass seeds," lamented one. And another reckoned it wasn't as speedy as others claimed saying: "Week 3 now and some shoots are beginning to show, although by now they could be the previous grass regrowing, not the new 'speedy' grass." You can pick up 1.4kg of Pronto seed on Amazon or from B&Q for £14.49.

With temperatures warming up as we head into the weekend, many of us are likely making plans to spend time relaxing in the garden. 1 An expert has revealed how to keep weeds and bald patches at bay this summer However, after a long winter of neglect, our lawns may be in need of a bit of TLC.

For those wanting to go the extra mile, whizz Ivana Agustina, Head of Project Management at ShrubHub, gave green-fingered Brits another nugget of wisdom regarding the best time to mow your lawn. 'People don't realise that grass gets stressed just like any plant,' she said. Many gardeners make the common mistake of mowing their grass in the midday heat, without realising the harm this can do to the grass. 'If you mow it at the wrong time, you're basically wounding the lawn when it's least able to recover.' I detached both my biceps from the bone and only train in my back garden - now I'm competing in World's Strongest Man The expert revealed that in spring the best time to mow your lawn is between 9 am and 11 am. 'Mowing during late morning means you're not clogging your mower with wet clippings or baking the lawn in midday heat,' she said. Ivana explained that one of the worst times to mow your grass is before 8 am as grass is still wet from morning dew, which leads to "uneven trimming". She added that between 2 pm and 4 pm is also not a good time to cut the grass, as this is the hottest part of the day, "which is bad news for moisture retention and overall lawn health." The expert added: "You're slicing into already-dry blades under a blazing sun. 'That kind of trauma leaves your grass vulnerable to pests, yellowing, and fungal infections.' During the summer time, the expert revealed that the best time to mow is between 6 am and 8 am, as this allows you to avoid the heat. Ivana said that cutting your lawn at the wrong time could lead to fungal diseases, uneven growth and increased weed risk.
