Planting Instructions:
Plant Kikuyu grass seeds, plugs, or sod in late spring or early summer after the soil temperature reaches 65-75°F (18-24°C). Prepare the soil by loosening it to a depth of 4-6 inches. Broadcast the seeds evenly over the prepared area and lightly rake them into the soil, or plant plugs or lay sod with good soil contact. Keep the soil consistently moist until the seeds germinate or the plugs/sod establish, which usually takes about 7-21 days.
