I am used to flower seedlings with their true leaves,not ornamental grass seedlings,so during germination when do I prick out?
Do these look ok to prick out?

Plenty there cotty. You can prick those out now. I'm very lazy and never prick out grass down to singles.
Which ones are those?
I've sown grass seed some kind person sent me last year. I did it in plug trays and I will then grow on each plug into a pot. You could patch the seedlings out, ie a clump into each pot.
I can't remember what grass it is off the top of my head. It does look like I have some work cut out tomorrow. I think I will put some in small pots,some in a clump in big pots and then dot some around the garden.
Cheers,I feel less silly now.
I think it's pheasant tail grass. So I imagine clumps here and there would look good?
I don't like thinning as I don't want to get rid of any plants.
I am new to ornamental grass so this year hopefully I will learn a lot.
That grows quite nicely in shade. it will seed itself nicely, I let them grow for a few years and discard the older ones when they cease to look good.
None of us likes thinning, cotty, but we have to steel ourselves! Seed is cheap. Space is usually at a premium.
When I read the thread title I had visions of somebody planting a lawn one piece at a time. Happy to discover I was wrong
