What can I cover grass seed with?

It is possible to germinate and grow grass seeds without covering them, as long as the seeds are kept moist. A thin layer of straw mulch, topsoil, or compost placed over the grass seed will help retain moisture and speed up germination.

Can you throw grass seed on top of soil?

To some extent, this is dependent on the state of the soil in your area. Soil is too tough for grass seeds to penetrate. Ideally, they’ll be placed on top of a layer of loose dirt. Too much soil on top of the seeds can have a negative impact on germination quickly.
