HOW TO EFFECTIVELY SEED YOUR
LAWN FOR FALL
DFAMILY FEATURES ue to cooler temperatures and increased
moisture levels, fall provides ideal conditions
to help your lawn establish strong
roots before winter sets in. While the soil retains
warmth from the summer months, the cooler weather
minimizes the risk of weeds, allowing the new
grass to thrive without as much competition or intense
Transform your lawn this autumn with these seeding
tips for a lush, green yard next spring.
Choose the Right Seed for Your Region
Consider the climate of your region when choosing
grass seed. Cool-season grasses, such as Kentucky
bluegrass and fescue, thrive in northern regions,
while warm-season grasses like Bermuda and Zoysia
are better suited for southern climates. Choosing
the right seed blend can also help address issues
such as shade, drought and wear.
Prepare Soil for Optimal Growth
Start by testing your soil's pH (a measure of how
acidic or basic a substance is) and nutrient levels.
Most grasses thrive in soil with a pH level between
6-7 (on a scale to 14). Next, aerate the soil to alleviate
compaction and improve seed-to-soil contact,
which allows for better water infi ltration and root
growth, and remove debris, rocks and weeds from
the area to create an optimal environment for new
grass to grow.
Apply Seed for a Dense, Healthy Lawn
For even distribution of seeds, use a broadcast
spreader to apply half the seed in one direction and
the remaining seed perpendicular to the fi rst pass to
ensure thorough coverage. Lightly rake the soil to
incorporate seeds then use a roller to press them into
the ground. Light, frequent watering is best until the
seeds germinate and grass begins to grow.
