Aerating And Overseeding The Quad Lawn
Now that all the thatch has been removed from the quad lawn, Joss spent a few hours this morning aerating it with the 'Groundsman Turf Aerator', plunging tines into the ground to make holes in the turf allowing air, nutrients and water to reach the roots.
After he had finished the aerating Joss covered the bald patches, created by the scarifying, with top soil which were then overseeded with grass seed. An autumn/winter feed will be applied tomorrow.
Proper care is must to maintain the beauty of a lwan. It would be not easy for everyone to overseeding a lawn which is bigger in size so i think contacting a professional lawn maintenance company would be a better idea.
