Default LF: Grass Seeds

I fertilized my lawn last week in my townhouse.

I'm getting aeration done to my lawn on Saturday, and figure I should get some seeds to put in right after the aeration.

What grass seeds have you guys found particularly good. I have read that the basic way is to spend more money on seeds.

What seeds are you guys buying? From where? How much?

Kentucky Bluegrass I think is pretty much the standard lawn seed. You can buy grass seeds at Canadian Tire, Home Depot, Rona, or any other home improvement center. Grass seeds are not very expensive and I think 1 bag that can seed half a small lawn will run around $2~5. (Not too sure on that). However, grass seeds require quite a bit of care on their first week. You got to plant them (you just can throw them onto soil, you gotta kinda bury it (not too deep). You then have to water them gently (ie: don't drench them like you would with a normal lawn). Do this right, and you will get grass. [There are also instructions on the back of the package, if worst comes to worst, google it! ]

I've bought grass seeds from Walmart for a school bio project... It was around $5 for a big bag of seeds.
