Do I need to pack down soil before and/or after I plant grass seed? Please read the following before answering, thank you. I have planted grass before, and I know there's certain steps to take to plant grass. I only need help in a few spots. I got a delivery of fertalized soil and I put the soil in the area that I'm planting grass. The area is about 20' by 15'. The soil has about an inch + of layer. I raked the soil to make sure it's nice and level. Now this is where I get confused... Do I need to pack down the soil, meaning, right now the soil is lose enough where you step on it you sink very little. If I do need to pack the soil please tell me how to I only have basic tools to work with. Next I know the soil has to be lose to mix grass seed in with then rake it so the seeds fall into the soil a little bit, but do I need to pack down the soil after the seeds are planted? Or is the soil supposed to be lose. Thank you to those who answer. Please provide any websites if you can, thank you.

Can someone give me some interesting places where and on what to plant grass seeds ? Can anyone give me some interesting artistic ways in which I can use grass as an art form or just to plant it in other ways except on my lawn. I took a plastic Coke bottle, filled it with soil and threw in some grass seeds. Its now stands nice and tall inside the Coke bottel and overflows like hair where it exits the mouth of the bottle. Its fun to trim it because you can layer i like hair or cut it nice and short, its such an attractive feauture. I read somewhere that you can plant grass on a lava rock because the rocks so rich in nutrients that it grows extremely fast. A friend of mine took her silk stalkings, filled it with soil, threw in some grass seeds and made a knot at the end. She sewed 2 buttons on for the eyes and a big one for the mouth and it forms a little face with green hair which she can cut when it gets too long. So any people out there that have any other interesting ideas of what to do with grass except sowing it on a lawn, please let me know. Its a lotta fun !
