Q: Is carpetgrass hard to maintain?

• <div><p>Carpetgrass is a low-maintenance grass requiring little fertilization that thrives in subprime growing conditions. However, <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/when-to-mow-new-grass.htm">regular mowing</a> is necessary to avoid the growth of unsightly seed stalks, and you may have to water it frequently to prevent drying out the soil. That includes watering the grass over dry winters to help keep it healthy, and it may start dying out in particularly cold climates where it grows poorly. Carpetgrass can also be vulnerable to some types of turf fungus, so it&rsquo;s important not to overthatch. </p></div>

Q: How do I make my ryegrass thicker?

• <div><p>Make your ryegrass thicker by boosting soil health. Add organic matter, aerate the lawn if the soil is compacted, fertilize appropriately, and see if your lawn needs dethatching. Your local lawn care service can come and look at your lawn and provide specific advice and remedies for your lawn issues.</p></div>

Q: Can you just throw grass seed on an existing lawn?

• <div><p>Throwing grass seed on existing lawn isn&rsquo;t likely to germinate, grow roots, or become healthy grass. You need to prep the soil, <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/fertilizing-101-yard-and-garden.htm">spread fertilizer</a> with your seed, and sow the seed into the soil. Water the seed every day for two weeks to ensure it germinates and grows roots. Be sure to stay off the area and wait to mow until it reaches optimal height.</p></div>

Q: Should I reseed my lawn after aerating it?

• <div><p>Reseeding your lawn can help eliminate thin or patchy portions of grass. If you&rsquo;re paying a professional to aerate your lawn, it&rsquo;ll cost you an additional $50 to $80 on average to reseed it in the same trip. Reseeding a lawn yourself can cost between $500 to $1,000, meaning you&rsquo;ll probably save time and money hiring a professional service. </p></div>

Q: What is the best time of year to redo a lawn?

• <div><p>Depending on the lawn treatments, the best times of the year to redo your lawn are between mid-August and mid-September for overseeding and renovation treatments. For areas such as the southern United States, lawn aeration works best during the fall, when the temperatures begin to drop. Otherwise, early spring is your next best bet because the grass is fresh and ready to absorb nutrients, and the temperature isn&rsquo;t hot enough to fry the grass and the renovation materials.</p></div>
