Overseeding is the process of introducing new grass seeds into existing turfgrass to fill in bare spots and thin patches, and to repair damage from drought or wear. It ensures even coverage of thick grass, improves turf density, and enhances grass variety.

A thicker, healthier field is more capable of absorbing water and nutrients, making it naturally more resilient against weeds and diseases, and helps in preventing pest infestations. Therefore, overseeding is crucial for enhancing the health, extending the life, improving playability, and boosting the beauty of turfgrass.

To maximise turfgrass health and field appearance, Generally, overseeding cool-season grasses is done in the fall, while warm-season grasses are best overseeded in the late spring or early summer. This approach promotes a denser, more resilient turf by aligning with each grass type’s natural growth cycle.

Dimple seeding, also known as spiked seeding, utilises a roller with spikes to create pockets for seed placement, ideal for minimal disruption. Techniques like spiked seeding alleviate soil compaction, fostering better root growth and enhancing soil aeration.

Disc seeding, also know as slit or slice seeding, involves slicing the soil to insert seeds into covered grooves, ensuring close seed-to-soil contact. This method breaks up compact soil, improving aeration and facilitating healthier turf development.

Yes, overseeding effectively improves turfgrass health by introducing a variety of grass species, which enhances resistance to pests, diseases, and weather extremes, while also enriching the turfgrass texture and colour. This practice creates a denser turf, naturally limiting space for weed growth and reducing the reliance on chemical weed controls
