Aerate Topdress Overseed

Aeration and overseeding is the typical routine for fall time in cool season lawns. This year, I decided to add an extra step of topdressing with sand. This accomplishes 2 things: filling the aeration holes (helps with drainage, root development, etc) and helps level low spots and bumps in the lawn.
This is something commonly done with lawns that are mowed with a reel mower. After this I decided to do an overseed with some good grass seed.

I core areated my lawn yesterday.. 10h and 350m2. Every 15-20cm and 10cm wide between the paths. My neighbors most think I am nuts. Man it was hard work, but it was satisfying somehow. Tomorrow it is time for topdress !

@terrysheehan7481 2 года назад

I would suggest over-seeding before you top dress. Let the seed fall into the holes before they get filled. You could even spread more seed over the top. I don’t think you can put down too much seed! Good luck selling your house. A great lawn and landscaping like you have will help you get top dollar! I have been full time in the real estate business for 36 years. I also have the best lawn in my neighborhood. .

Putting seed down in a 2-3” hole won’t yield great results

@user-fk1zt7il4c 8 месяцев назад

I have a question I am going to level my yard with sand in about two weeks. I have probably 4500 ft.² total to do my yard is very uneven so I will probably need like 6 tons to do everything. My question is when a truck comes and dumps the sand and you fill it up and spread the sand. What happens when you go back to the pile and you still have further to push but that’s like 70 feet away? Meaning when you put sand back in it won’t the sand come out and it’s just going over where you were just going with the spreader to get to the other part of the yard. That doesn’t have the sand yet , thanks let me know

If you leave the cores out for 24 hours on a hot day, roll over them with a roller. They will crush into powder; then topdress after. It will blend in evenly. Just a thought. That is what I do.

Great videos, thanks. I take issue with aerating every year, it’s not necessary. Does it help? Not really, may make you feel better, but it’s not necessary. Same rule applies for thatching. Some thatch is good and delivers nitrogen. Btw, I just purchased the Landzie, looking forward to using this spring!
