Keyfit Tools Grass Hand Seed SPIKER for Dog Spot & Bare Spot Lawn Seeding

The Hand Seed Spiker is a tool designed to create perfect spike slots for grass seed to fall into, ensuring that the seed is embedded in the soil and cannot be washed away. This simple and easy-to-use device is an effective solution for repairing dog spots, dead spots, and general lawn and turf damage.

The spikes on the Hand Seed Spiker only need to penetrate the soil to a depth of 1/8" to 1/4", roughly the length of the sharp end of the spike. The extra-long spikes are designed to accommodate thick thatch and dead grass, ensuring that the holes do not penetrate the soil more than 1/4". To use the tool, simply tap it a few times into the damaged area, making several taps per square foot. Sprinkle the grass seed over the spiked dead patch, lightly water it in, and the seeds will drop into the Seed Spiker holes.

The Hand Seed Spiker works with a variety of grass seed types, including Scotts Turf Builder, EZ Seed sunny mix, shady mix, sun shade mix, Pennington seed, and seed for northern and southern lawns, kentucky bluegrass, bent grass, fescue, Bermuda, St. Augustine, Perennial ryegrass, Zoysia grass, Centipedegrass, and Bahiagrass. This versatility makes the Hand Seed Spiker a valuable tool for lawn and turf repair.

One of the key benefits of the Hand Seed Spiker is that it helps to prevent the seed from being washed away. By embedding the seed in the soil, it can properly germinate and take root, rather than being scattered by water or wind. This can save users money in the long run, as they no longer have to throw away money on seed that is not effectively planted.

The Hand Seed Spiker is a durable and long-lasting tool, made from heavy-duty solid cast iron fittings and black steel pipe. This construction ensures that it can withstand years of use, making it a worthwhile investment for homeowners and lawn care professionals alike.

For dog spots, the instructions recommend drenching the area with water to reduce the nitrogen concentration, then letting it dry for a few hours before spiking and seeding. This helps to create a more favorable environment for the new grass to grow.

Overall, the Hand Seed Spiker is a simple yet effective tool that can save users time and money by ensuring that their grass seed is properly planted and able to take root. With its versatility, durability, and easy-to-use design, it is a valuable addition to any lawn care toolkit.
