Grass Seed Calculator

How to Use This Calculator

To use this grass seed calculator, enter the area of your lawn or garden space in square feet and the seed rate as specified on your grass seed package, which should be in pounds per 1000 square feet. After entering these two values, click on the “Calculate” button to get the total amount of grass seed required in pounds.

How It Calculates

The calculator multiplies the area you provide by the seed rate, then divides by 1000 (since the seed rate is per 1000 square feet). This calculation gives you the total weight of grass seed needed in pounds.

Limitations

Please note that this calculator assumes a uniform seed distribution and does not account for variations in terrain, seed type, or application method. Results may vary, and it’s always good practice to consult with a lawn care professional when in doubt.
