Overseeding your Lawn will make it look INCREDIBLE!
In this video, we go over the exact steps on how to seed and overseed your lawn.
1. Tools needed- The first tool needed for overseeding grass is a seed spreader, I prefer to use the manual Scotts spreader as the small size leads to a very controlled application of grass seed. The second thing we will need is the grass seed itself. The third thing is a lawn sprinkler with a misting setting.
2. Timing is EVERYTHING- The number one factor that will determine the success of your seeding project is timing. Some people like pre germinating grass seed to help speed up the process but personally, we like to have our seed down on the ground by labor day weekend when overseeding in the fall.
3. Scalp before Seeding- Its important to mow your lawn down low before overseeding to give you baby grass seeds the best chance of to germinate. By mowing mow, it will allow sun to get down to the soil encouraging the new grass to grow. Also by mowing low, you will shock the existing grass and stunt its growth which will be beneficial to the new grass seed to grow.
4. Grass Seed- Grass seed will be the most expensive part of our project. If your not sure what type of grass you have then I recommend getting the Scotts sun and shade grass seed or the Jonathan Green Sun and shade grass seed which both contain a mix of perennial ryegrass, kentucky bluegrass and tall fescue. These both contain a mix of grass that can blend well in any lawn.
5. Lawn Roller- This step is optional but is highly recommended. You can rent a lawn roller at your local tool store for a fairly cheap price. Rolling your grass seed after applying will press the seeds directly into the soil which will increase your chances of having seed to soil contact.
6. Fertilizer- There are many fertilizers you can use when seeding. Today we will be applying an organic Milorganite type of fertilizer that has a high amount of phosphorus. The number one nutrient that helps develops strong roots to your new grass is phosphorus.
7. WATER WATER WATER- Proper watering is the number one most important factor when it comes to successfully seeding your lawn. We want to keep the top layer of soil moist at ALL times during the germination process. This usually equates to water 3-4 times a day for 5 minutes each time.
