    Horses for courses ... it depends on the conditions. 
    Whats the soil/drainage/shade or sun/what will the lawn be used for? A bowling green, a kids’ football pitch or something in between?

  • Very hard soil

    50/50 sun shade

    To be honest just a nice looking lawn

    It’s not really the best time to sow a lawn, coming up to midsummer and hot dry weather ... September would be favourite. However, be that as it may,  a general all purpose lawn seed available from all garden centres will be fine. 

    The success of your lawn depends on the preparation ... this will tell you what you need to do https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Ni21T_hrkMc

    I’ll alert @glasgowdan to this ... he’s a lawn expert 😊
