Can you seed existing grass?

• <div><p>Adding seed to existing grass is often <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/overseed-lawn-guide.htm">known as overseeding</a>, as opposed to reseeding. Reseeding refers to the process of filling in bare or dying patches of lawn—or in some cases, full lawns—whereas reseeding supports existing lawns to prevent thinning. Overseeding is an ideal annual lawn care practice for grass fighting drought, disease, weeds, or pest issues.</p></div>

Is power seeding better than aeration?
