What happens here
Overseeding is crucial for maintaining a healthy lawn, especially in shaded areas or when blending different turf colors. If a section of sod is laid in shade (e.g., under a large tree) but was grown in full sun, it will eventually weaken and die. Overseeding that area with a shade-tolerant seed mixture allows the new grass to replace the sun-grown sod, ensuring a thick and full lawn. Similarly, overseeding can help blend new sod with existing turf to achieve a uniform color.
Goal: Use overseeding to address shade conditions and blend turf colors for a uniform lawn.
