The article presents the results of seven years research on the making of lawns in the conditions of the North-East of the Non-Chernozem Zone of Russia. Under conditions of natural moistening, the process of formation of single-species and mixed lawns based on varieties of perennial grasses of Russian breeding was studied. Weather conditions affected the quality of lawns. In wet years, the quality of lawns increased, in dry years it decreased. For the making of long-term lawns, it is possible to use the red fescue variety Sigma and the meadow bluegrass variety Vagant, for short-term lawns (two years) — perennial ryegrass Karat and VIK 66. When creating single-species lawns, there were no differences in quality between herbages with the recommended and reduced seeding rate, so it is possible to reduce the seeding rate by 25–33% compared to the previously recommended one, which will reduce seed costs. The quality of single-species lawns was higher and more consistent than that of mixed lawns.
