'Fast growing' grass seed delivers a 'lush, green lawn' and is tailored for UK weather
Shoppers can get their lawns ready for summer in a flash with this seed that's designed for UK gardens
With a heatwave coming and the glorious days of summer just around the corner, gardeners are running out of time to get their lawns prepped and ready for enjoying in the sunshine. The UK winter can take its toll on grass, and there'll be plenty of people looking at their lawns with disdain, wondering how they can get them lush and green in time for garden parties, BBQs, and lazy days of sunbathing.
Choosing the right grass seed to refresh the lawn is, therefore, essential. The Pronto Seed Premium Grass Seed promises speedy grass growth in under two weeks, as it's designed for rapid germination so gardeners can enjoy maximum coverage in less time.
Currently, shoppers can snap up 1.4kg of seed for £14.49 from Amazon, down 28% from £19.99, which will cover up to 84m² when overseeding, or can establish 42m² of fresh grass from scratch.
The seed is hard-wearing and weather-ready, engineered specially for the UK climate and designed to withstand harsh weather and foot traffic. It's deep rooted and thrives in shady and sunny spots alike, and is sealed at peak freshness for high germination rates.
It's useful for both filling in bare patches and improving general lawn health, and is easy to sow - simply evenly spread over the area, rake lightly to cover with soil, and make sure to keep it moist for quick results. Plus, it's said to be weed-resistant for the ultimate low maintenance lawn.
Nowadays there are plenty of options for fast-growing grass seed from shoppers' favourite retailers. B&Q, for example, stocks the Miracle-Gro Evergreen Fast Grass Lawn Seed online, which promises super fast gemination and a healthy, thick lawn. This one costs £10.39 for 480g, which covers approximately 16m², and has a unique coating for rapid growth. There's also the Doff Fast Grow Lawn Seed for £8.99 at Robert Dyas, which comes in a 500g pack covering up to 20m². It has a bird-deterring agent to ensure our flying friends will leave the lawn alone, and is easy to sow over healthy soil and top up with water for rapid results.
Gardeners are loving the Pronto Seed grass from Amazon which boasts a high 4.2 star rating. One happy shopper 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."
"I’m really impressed with the Pronto Seed Grass Seed," another said.
"After using it to overseed my lawn, I’ve seen fantastic results. The grass started sprouting quickly, and within a couple of weeks, I had a lush, green lawn that looks much healthier and fuller than before. The seeds are clearly of premium quality, and they’re perfectly suited to the UK climate."
A third added: "Grows nice and green! Decent seed for a fair price."
Some did note some issues, however, including one buyer who said: "I had high hopes for this grass seed, but the results were just okay. The germination rate was decent, but it took longer than expected for the grass to fill in. Some areas grew well, while others remained patchy despite following the instructions carefully. On the positive side, the grass that did grow looks healthy and green."
"It’s certainly called speedy grass for a reason. It starts growing within days and gives pretty decent coverage in about a week," another said, although they warn that "it’s a bit yellower than many grasses, so at the moment looks a bit odd in our greener lawn.
"I’m hoping things will settle a bit when the varieties cross pollinate over the lawn."
