Over-seeding

The best times for Over-seeding are during Spring and Fall when the soil temperatures are above 50°F and we have plenty of natural moisture. We use a cool season 3-way perennial ryegrass that thrives in our area.

3-way refers to the 3 similar grass cultivars blended together to take advantage of individual characteristics we look for such as:

  • Deep green color and fine leaf texture
  • Quick establishment
  • Disease & insect resistance
  • Drought tolerance and overall durability
  • Enhanced adaptability to different soil types

Soil to seed contact is key for successful germination and establishment. Over-seeding is included with our
Lawn Rejuvenation services such as Aeration and Dethatching. During this process we use lawn aerators and dethatchers to prepare the soil surface, remove compacted soil/organic matter and create a seedbed that provides moisture and warmth. In addition to this, Fertilizer and Lime Applications help boost lawn growth by providing nutrients directly to the seedbed and root zone.
