Overseeding

Overseeding

Wisconsin lawns undergo a lot of wear and tear in the summer months. Kids, pets, weather, and pests can damage the lawn, leaving behind unsightly brown patches of grass and bare spots where dirt is showing. No one likes looking at an ugly lawn, much less spending time outdoors in a yard where the grass is thin and unhealthy. Overseeding is an effective way to effectively rejuvenate a lawn. Packer City Turf provides professional lawncare overseeding services to reinvigorate damaged lawns in Green Bay and the Fox Cities, Wisconsin.

Overseeding Lawns in Green Bay & Fox Cities

Overseeding is a common practice that entails spreading grass seed on a lawn to fill bare spots and gaps where the grass isn’t growing well. Overseeding is often combined with aeration, a lawncare practice that loosens the soil to enhance the flow of nutrients, water, and air. Aeration enhances seed germination because grass seeds readily germinate in aerator holes.

Spring, Summer & Fall Lawncare

Overseeding is beneficial throughout the growing season but especially in the spring and fall. In the spring, Packer City Turf overseeds patches damaged by snow plowing and winter kill. In the fall, Packer City Turf overseeds areas damaged by people and pets to spur grass growth for the spring.

Benefits of Overseeding Lawns

1

Reduce Erosion:

A denser lawn holds water and soil in place. Likewise, a denser lawn holds moisture and nutrients in place. Additionally, overseeding helps reduce run-off and soil erosion.

2

Combat Pests and Disease Attacks:

When combined with proper watering, overseeding contributes to lawn health. A healthy lawn is less susceptible to attacks by pests and diseases.

3

Use Less Water & Fertilizer:

By overseeding with grass seed that’s well-suited to Northeast Wisconsin weather, grass will grow better and require minimal watering and fertilizing.

4

Lawn Aeration:

Prevents the buildup of thatch, the layer of organic material on the soil’s surface, which blocks grass roots from the nutrients they need
