Another consideration is whether you are planting your lawn on virgin land or replenishing an existing patch. If its virgin ground then you will have to make sure that is cleared of all weeds, other grass and anything else that might be growing there. Try and remove even the roots if possible. Leaving bits of root usually means these things will grow at a later stage and your lawn won’t develop properly

The seeds need to be spread evenly so that there are no patches when the lawn does grow. The soil should be free of lumps and the seeds should be completely covered by another layer of top soil.

The early stages of growth are important as once it is established it will require little attention apart from the occasional trimming down.
