Q: What is the relationship between power seeding and aeration, and should I aerate before power seeding?

• <div><p>Power seeding and aeration are both excellent ways to improve lawn health, but they serve different functions. Aeration focuses on improving soil health by creating channels that allow more water, oxygen, and carbon dioxide to reach the roots. In contrast, power seeding is a method of planting grass seeds, often by creating narrow trenches in the soil. One service isn't better than the other; they are complementary. It is beneficial to aerate your lawn before power seeding, as this makes the seeding more effective by helping the germinating seeds access the resources they need. It's a good practice to aerate your lawn once or twice a year, regardless of whether you plan to power seed.</p></div>

Q: How long does lawn seeding take?

• <div><p>Seeding typically takes 1-2 days, with growth visible within 2-3 weeks under proper conditions.</p></div>

Q: Which hardiness zones are best for St. Augustine grass?

• <div><p>The best hardiness zones for St. Augustine grass are USDA growing zones 8, 9, and 10. However, with a bit of extra attention, it'll also grow well in zones 7, 11, and 12.</p></div>

Q: When is the best time of year to fix lawn depressions?

• <div><p>It&rsquo;s best to fix lawn depressions <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/spring-lawn-care-and-landscaping-tips.htm">during late spring</a>. You want to wait until after your last frost date and when the yard is not too wet. This also allows ample time for new grass growth once you reseed. </p></div>

Q: Will grass fill in bare spots on its own?

• <div><p>Whether or not grass will fill in bare spots itself depends on the <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-identify-lawn-grass.htm">type of grass you have</a>. For example, grass with rhizomes (e.g., Bermuda grass) and stolons (e.g., Saint Augustine grass) will naturally fill in bald spots as it spreads laterally. However, clump-forming grasses will not spread. </p></div>
