Emergence: 4 to 8 days under ideal conditions
First mowing: approximately 2 weeks after emergence
First limited use: 3 weeks (light traffic)
Heavier Traffic or child play: 8-10 weeks dependant on weather, care, and turf density. You shouldn't be able to push the blunt end of a pen into the ground (easily)
