Hi,
I'm in the process of reseeding a lawn from scratch. I started it last year and I've spent a small fortune on brand grass seed.

I still have bald patches and so I was wondering if anyone can recommend where to get a good, cheap grass seed?

Thanks

    You have

    And now you want to wreck the lawn with cheap seed?

    I think we all sow grass seed to thickly. Buy the better seed, but sow ( next month) at a reduced rate, protect the seed from birds and water well.

    Thanks but I've looked there and they have lots. I'm really looking for particular recommendations on the brands of seed.

    No, I want a good seed and a good price. Just looking for personal recommendations of what that is.

    You used the word cheap in your OP.

    Yeah, that's the point of MSE though. Perhaps I should have said 'good inexpensive grass seed'
