Frequently Asked Questions:

Will creeping thyme eventually outcompete the grass? Yes, but prep matters! For best results, mow the lawn very short, rake well to loosen the soil, then spread the seed so it can make contact with the soil. Creeping thyme works best in sparse or thinning lawn areas. If your grass is very thick and healthy, it may take several seasons to fully establish.

Do I need to remove the sod before planting creeping thyme?  Not necessarily! Creeping thyme can be spread over an existing lawn, but it needs good seed-to-soil contact. For best results, mow the grass very short, rake well to loosen the soil, then spread the seed.

Is the creeping thyme safe for chickens and dogs?  Yes! Creeping thyme is a non-toxic groundcover option for areas where kids, pets, and livestock may roam. 

Application Guidelines:

• Application Timing: Spring, late summer, or early fall
• Application Method: Shake evenly over prepared soil or existing lawn
• Watering: Keep soil moist during germination and early growth
• Compatibility: Suitable for most well-drained soil types
• Important Note: Avoid seeding during extremely hot and dry conditions

Please note, regular watering during establishment is essential for best results. Reduced mowing over time will encourage more blooms and create a fuller, more natural-looking flowering lawn.
