Power seeding is a process in which a machine with knife-like blades to create slits in your lawn and then drops grass seed into the slits. The knife blades are designed to minimize damage to the lawn. Power seeding is the fastest way to restore a weak lawn and to achieve optimum seed germination. Power seeding can be used for touch-ups of small bare areas, or for complete lawn renovations. To Ensure Good Seed Establishment, You Must:
- Maintain good soil moisture for the first four weeks after seeding. The immature roots of the new grass are shallow and dry out more quickly than mature grass. Once the grass begins to mature, you can reduce the watering.
- Mow your lawn when it is 1/3 higher than you would normally mow it, but make sure it is dry before cutting. Be sure that your mower blades are sharp, so the grass won't be pulled out of the ground while being cut.
- Be gentle for the first few cuttings. Take corners carefully and mow BEFORE you water. Please contact Grassman for all your seeding needs.
