Are my lawn measurements uploaded?
No. This estimate runs in your browser; measurements and mix details are not sent to a server or saved by this tool.
What seeding rate should I enter?
Use the rate printed on your seed label or provided by the supplier for your specific product and use. Rates vary; the calculator does not choose one for you.
Can I calculate a grass seed blend?
Yes. Enter two variety shares that total 100%. The result splits the estimated total by those percentages. You can leave names blank and use the shares just to divide a generic mix.
