Spread the seed evenly over the area at the rate shown on the box, then lightly rake it in so it makes good contact with the soil. Water gently and keep the surface consistently moist while the seed establishes, taking care not to let it dry out. Sow in the warmer months when soil temperatures are up, as Kikuyu is a warm-season grass that establishes best in the heat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat area does a 1kg box cover?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e One 1kg box sows up to approximately 100 square metres, depending on how evenly the seed is spread and the condition of the soil.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs Kikuyu good for hot, dry areas?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes.
