Q: What services are included in lawn care?

• <div><p>Services typically include mowing, edging, trimming, and debris cleanup. Additional options may consist of fertilization and weed control.</p></div>

Q: Can I put down grass seed and fertilizer at the same time?

• <div><p>Provided you're using an appropriate starter fertilizer for grass seed, you can put down seeds and fertilizer at the same time. However, putting them down separately, one after the other, on the same day will help to avoid over- or under-applying the lawn food. Avoid using a fertilizer with weed control elements, as these will likely keep the grass seeds from starting. </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>

Q: Can you hydroseed over existing or old grass?

• <div><p>While hydroseeding is designed for bare soil, it is possible to apply it over an existing lawn with certain adjustments. For the new seed to be successful, it needs good seed-to-soil contact to germinate and take root. Without proper preparation, most of the new seed will fail to establish and will die. To hydroseed over existing grass, first mow the lawn as low as possible, then loosen and clear any exposed soil. It is also recommended to use a finer mulch mixture in the hydroseed spray, which helps the seeds penetrate the existing turf and reach the soil without suffocating the established grass.</p></div>

Q: Will grass grow after forestry mulching?

• <div><p>Yes, grass will regrow after forestry mulching, but the timeline depends on soil conditions, mulch thickness, and existing seed banks. The nutrient-rich mulch left behind helps retain moisture and improve soil health, encouraging regrowth. However, if the mulch layer is too thick, it may block sunlight and slow grass germination. For faster results, you can rake excess mulch, aerate the soil, and plant the new grass seeds.</p></div>

Lawn Irrigation questions, answered by experts

Services typically include mowing, edging, trimming, and debris cleanup. Additional options may consist of fertilization and weed control.

Provided you're using an appropriate starter fertilizer for grass seed, you can put down seeds and fertilizer at the same time. However, putting them down separately, one after the other, on the same day will help to avoid over- or under-applying the lawn food. Avoid using a fertilizer with weed control elements, as these will likely keep the grass seeds from starting.

Whether or not grass will fill in bare spots itself depends on the type of grass you have. 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.

While hydroseeding is designed for bare soil, it is possible to apply it over an existing lawn with certain adjustments. For the new seed to be successful, it needs good seed-to-soil contact to germinate and take root. Without proper preparation, most of the new seed will fail to establish and will die. To hydroseed over existing grass, first mow the lawn as low as possible, then loosen and clear any exposed soil.
