BellaOnline Forums Home and Garden Gardening question about Grass

We just planted grass but I have a sort of silly question.....After the grass starts to come up how often are we suppose to water ? Do we water like normal or continue to keep it really wet or ??? Thanks

Grass seed, like all seed, needs moisture to germinate. Keep the soil moist until you have good germination. Then keep it watered as necessary to allow good growth and to prevent wilting of new grass plants.

Thank You, I'm a little excited about it as when we moved in last year the backyard was a complete mess, it made me cry really. But the good news is that after we cleaned it up we found 4 grape vines, 1 apple, 1 peach , 1 maple tree. 9 lilac bushed, and 3 I don't knows but they are green.
