Lawn Looking Sad Now? Power Seeding Can Mean Great Grass Next Spring

After a long, fun summer, it’s time to step outside and take an objective look at how your lawn is doing. If you’ve got kids or dogs who spent a lot of time playing on the grass, chances are that there are some patches that are looking rough. Grass can be thin and patchy in high use areas; in some cases, the grass can be completely gone, leaving you with bare earth.

If your grass has gotten thin and patchy, you may see significant weed growth. Weeds are amazing survivors: they need to spot only the tiniest opening and they’ll take advantage of it to grow to their fullest potential. Once they’ve grown, weeds will go to seed, doing everything they can to give other weeds a chance to grow. It doesn’t take long for what was once a lush lawn to start looking really rough.

Power seeding is the answer to both of these questions. If you want a lush, vibrant lawn, you want your grass to grow in thick and dense. When grass is dense, there are no sparse or bare patches. Densely growing grass stands up to heavy use better, and is softer and safer for kids and pets to play on. Additionally, dense grass prevents weed growth.

In the Boston area, power seeding is often done in the fall. The warm weather we’ve having right now is ideal seeding weather. It’s essential to get this job done before the temperature drops and the ground freezes.
