The maths behind it

This tool uses Seed = area × sowing rate. New lawns take 35 g/m², overseeding 25 g/m² and patch repair 50 g/m². Every intermediate value is shown on screen, so the result can be checked by hand.

Sowing heavier than the rate does not give a thicker lawn — seedlings compete, grow weak and thin out anyway. Consistent moisture for the first two to three weeks is what actually decides success.

Free, unlimited, and no email address required. You can use it a hundred times a day and nothing changes.
Does anything I enter leave my computer?
No. The Grass Seed Calculator runs entirely in your browser using JavaScript. Nothing is transmitted, logged or stored, which you can verify yourself in the Network tab of your browser's developer tools.
How is the result calculated?
It uses Seed = area × sowing rate. New lawns take 35 g/m², overseeding 25 g/m² and patch repair 50 g/m². The full working is printed under the result, so you can follow every step rather than trusting a black box.
When would I actually need the Grass Seed Calculator?
The jobs it is built for: buying the right amount for a new lawn. Overseeding a thin lawn in autumn. Repairing worn patches. It is built for exactly those cases rather than being a general-purpose tool with this bolted on.
What do people usually get wrong here?
Sowing heavier than the rate does not give a thicker lawn — seedlings compete, grow weak and thin out anyway. Consistent moisture for the first two to three weeks is what actually decides success.
What are the key numbers for the Grass Seed Calculator?
New lawn is 35 g/m². Overseeding is 25 g/m². Patch repair is 50 g/m². These are printed on the page itself, so you do not have to take them on trust.
Is the number rounded?
The calculation runs in double precision and the result is shown to ten significant figures, so converting a value and converting it back returns the original. What is displayed is rounded for readability; what is copied is not.
