Can I reseed over dead grass?

• <div><p>You can <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/reseeding-and-repairing-lawn.htm">reseed a rundown lawn</a> with dead grass, but first, you should remove all of the dead parts and test the soil. Doing this will help you understand what’s killing your lawn so that you can fix it and prevent it from ruining your new grass. Once you’ve made the appropriate adjustments, you can rake, fertilize, and reseed.</p></div>

How do you rejuvenate a dead lawn?

• <div><p>First, you should figure out whether you have <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/dormant-vs-dead-grass.htm">dormant or dead grass</a>. 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.</p></div>

Q: Should I aerate before power seeding?

• <div><p>Power seeding machines do a great job of creating narrow trenches in the soil to plant grass seeds into, but aerating before power seeding can be beneficial for your lawn. By aerating first, more water, oxygen, and carbon dioxide can reach the roots of your germinating grass seeds. Plan to aerate your lawn about once or twice a year, whether you plan to power seed or not.</p></div>

Q: Why is it best to have my lawn aerated by a professional?

• <div><p>Experts use precise equipment to break up compacted soil, promoting healthy root growth and nutrient absorption.</p></div>

Q: Is it worth it to aerate your lawn?

• <div><p>Almost all lawns can benefit from aeration, but not all lawns need aeration services. If your lawn has puddles of standing water, uneven grass growth, thinning grass, dries out quickly, or has a good amount of thatch, aeration is worthwhile. On the other hand, if your lawn is healthy and your soil isn&rsquo;t too compact, you may be able to skip a year of aeration. </p></div>
