  I’m a landscaper. I like to pregerminate seed before sowing because clients are always amazed at how fast and full my reseeding works. I’ve had a few people comment on how they can’t get grass to grow like me. Makes you look good. I’m not even a grass guy, more horticulture, but it’s a crowd pleaser for sure

  This was a widely used practice in the Georgian era for grains. It&apos;s called &quot;chitting&quot; in the old farming books. One method used in England was to put the seed grain into cloth sacks in a small stream where the water flowed over the bags. They hand sowed their fields.<br><br>You can also use &quot;sheeting&quot; ... just spread a frost blanket over the area after sowing the seeds, It retains moisture, doesn&apos;t get too hot, and you can remove it tio water.<br><br><br>WARNING: Once you have started the process you can&apos;t stop it - don&apos;t let the seeds dry out. And the white seed sprouts are fragile.

  This has helped a ton with birds eating seed.

  The biggest advantage is to reduce water requirements while waiting for germination. It&apos;s also great for patch work.

  This saves you a lot more on the water bill!

  I did a pre-germination a different way this past summer and it worked pretty well. I used some homemade compost and mixed grass seed throughout in a bucket. I kept the compost in the bucket wet until I started to see some germination. At that point I spread the compost/seed mix on some areas that I needed to be patched. It came in really nice that way.

  This was a solid video. No fluff. Every time I jumped forward I realized I’d missed something important. Really well done.

  I’ve used this technique on many plants, besides grass. The point about higher germination rates is the key as makes it look like faster germination rates because the rate is so high. Also I just rinse until really wet the seeds everyday rinsing them rather than soak. &nbsp;That may be me rinsing the toxic waste product off. But this is a great video and works with nearly any seed.

  I have tried several variations of pregermination. I have found that soaking the seeds for 12 hours, then changing out the water, then soaking for another 12 hours (now its been 24 hours). Then you STOP submerging the seeds in water! Think about it! Grass seed shouldn&apos;t &nbsp;sit under water for days! <br>So after the first initial soak of 24 hours, you should begin to only moisten the seeds daily (also flip the bag upside down in the middle of the day to ensure that the moisture doesn&apos;t sit on the bottom of the bag all the time). The first 12/24 hours is about washing away the toxins and turning the key for the germination process! Then its about keeping the seeds moist! You wouldn&apos;t lay seed on the ground and pour a pond of water over it for a week...?<br>In addition to flipping the bag over in the middle of the day, move the seed around in the bag to try and allow for air flow (like real world conditions). I literally helped my neighbor redo his new yard that failed miserably after he paid for hydroceding and it turned out amazing.<br>Jess ❤️ your stuff (minus the purple stuff (Go-PackGo)) and my heart goes out for your loss! I experienced that 3 days after 2024 X-mas!
