Once the seedbed is prepared, there are three ways you can go:

1. The most economical way is to buy the seeds and spread them yourself using a wheeled spreader or hand-cranked broadcaster, which can also be used to apply fertilizer when the lawn is established. Spring and fall are the best times to plant lawn seed. Follow the directions on the seed package for best coverage.

2. Hydro-seeding, though more expensive than applying seeds yourself, is fast and efficient. Typically the cost is between $250 and $400 for a 1,000 to 3,000 square-foot lawn. With this process a slurry of grass seed, wood fibers, and fertilizer is sprayed on the seedbed. You keep the area moist, and in a few weeks you have a lawn. Check under lawn installation in the yellow pages for hydro-seeders in your area.
