8 Steps To Thick Green Lawn In Just 3 Weeks

What happens here

The presenter explains that after dethatching and aerating, the lawn will have thin, bald spots. Overseeding is the next step to address this. He uses a broadcast spreader to distribute rapid-setting grass seed, purchased from his local Home Depot, across the entire lawn. The seed will fall into the aerated holes and the thinned areas, promoting new growth. He adjusts the spreader to setting #6 as per the seed instructions for proper application.

Goal: Fill in thin and bare spots in the lawn with new grass seed

Tools and materials

  • Broadcast Spreader — Distributing grass seed evenly over the lawn
  • Rapid-setting Grass Seed Generic — Planting new grass in bare or thin areas

into this video all right up next is the overseeding after we dethatched it it exposed a lot of thinness and balding of the grass kind of like us in our 20s we had a luscious thick beautiful mane of a hair and now we're in our mid-30s after three kids and all that stuff and uh we look like a wet cat out of the shower anyway let's proceed with this overseeding this is a rapid setting grass got at my local home depot it's nothing special just a generic stuff they have there this will allow for it to over spread the entire area into the aerated holes and into the dethatched area bring this grass nice and thick like we were in our 20s using a spreader here set on the right dial here i think it's number six based off of the spreader and uh let's get going zoom zoom [Music]
