Here is the BEST Time to Start Yellow-Eyed Grass Seeds in Ohio (2023 Guide)

Do you want to grow yellow-eyed grass seeds in Ohio, but don’t know when to start them?

Starting yellow-eyed grass seeds is not as easy as it seems.

Here’s why:

  • Yellow-Eyed Grass Seeds must be consistently watered, receive at least 8 hours of sunlight a day, & be kept at room temperature of at least 70 degrees Fahrenheit.

So if you don’t consistently water them they won’t germinate. If they aren’t in a room that is at least 70 degrees Fahrenheit they won’t sprout. And if it receives 8 hours of sunlight the plant itself won’t grow.

  • Because Ohio’s growing season is not long enough, yellow-eyed grass seeds cannot be sowed outside and should only be started indoors.

Because of this, I’m going to teach you the ideal time to start yellow-eyed grass seeds indoors in Ohio:

When to Start Yellow-Eyed Grass Seeds Indoors

Depending on the type of yellow-eyed grass, it takes roughly 10 to 14 days to grow yellow-eyed grass from seed indoors before you can transplant them into your garden. And it could take 2 years for your yellow-eyed grass to bloom!

The approximate date of when you should start your yellow-eyed grass seeds indoors can be found by:

  • Finding the fall average frost date HERE
  • And then subtract 10 days from it

You can also find the average fall frost date for most major cities in the below chart that I have created:

Ohio Frost Dates

To help ensure the greatest success of your yellow-eyed grass seeds germinating you should:

  • Use a heat mat to ensure the gardening pot remains at 70 degrees Fahrenheit
  • Use a grow light to control how much light your yellow-eyed grass seeds receive
  • Water your seeds with a spray bottle to ensure your seeds are not overwatered

It should also be noted that you will not want to introduce your yellow-eyed grass plants into your garden until 2 weeks after your fall frost or else your plant will potentially die or not bloom
