If you want thick, healthy grass, you may encounter advice about overseeding your lawn. But what does overseeding do? Read on to find out!
Benefits of Overseeding
Overseeding is defined as periodically adding new grass seed to your lawn. It's as simple as that. But it has major benefits for your lawn.
Here's what overseeding does:
- Replaces ageing grass plants
- Boosts grass density
- Improves resistance to moss and weeds
If you want a lush green lawn, overseeding is a must. We recommend overseeding at least once every 3 years, in either spring or early autumn.
Overseeding Tips from Lawn & Weed Expert
Without overseeding, your lawn will gradually become weak and unhealthy. Thinning patches of grass will make it easy for weeds to grow, and you may also notice signs of lawn disease.
This happens because grass - like any living thing - deteriorates over time. Overseeding (sowing fresh grass seed) is like calling in reinforcements to help keep the whole lawn fighting fit. If you don't overseed your lawn, the grass will only get weaker with each passing year.
