"I hired Harbor Salt to weed and clean up my messy yard initially. Mitch did a great job - he left the flowering plants and shrubs and got rid of the thistles! Then I hired him to weed, mow, and build a ramp over some rocks. Great again. Then I hired him to weed, mow and rebuild an old French drain. Also great. He works quickly and knows weeds, plants, and bugs so can answer your questions easily. He researched the problems I needed to be fixed and took care of them. I recommend him!"

Lawn Irrigation questions, answered by experts

Always mow the lawn on a short setting when overseeding. The thinner coverage offers more space for the grass seed to take root in the soil. When reseeding a lawn, however, you may need to remove your old turf altogether.

First, you should figure out whether you have dormant or dead grass. Dead grass won’t come back, so you’ll have to reseed if you’re hoping for a lush lawn. However, grass can go dormant if it hasn’t received enough water or if temperatures are too cold. If it’s still decently warm outside, you can revive dormant grass by watering it. But if it’s mid-January in New England, for example, you’ll need to wait until the weather warms up again. If you want to keep grass green in winter, consider a grass like Kentucky bluegrass, which maintains its color year-round.

Both zoysia grass and bermuda grass are somewhat similar to St. Augustine because they’re all warm-season grasses. Beyond that, most grass types have unique properties that set them apart. Zoysia grass costs twice the price of St. Augustine grass on average and it has thinner blades and a deeper green appearance. Bermuda grass, compared to St. Augustine, has much thinner blades, is softer to the touch, and has a higher tolerance for colder weather.

Like most plants, the seeds need water, optimal temperature, sunlight, and oxygen. Each variety of grass seed will have slightly different needs—higher or lower temperatures, for instance—so pick one that syncs up with your home’s climate and the time you wish to plant. Take a look at the 10-day forecast to ensure there won’t be a major rainstorm.

Post-seeding care involves regular watering, mowing when appropriate, and occasional re-seeding to cover sparse areas.
