Overseeding, the process of spreading grass seed over an existing lawn, is a powerful tool for combating the challenges faced by Chattanooga lawns. The region’s climate, characterized by hot, humid summers and moderate winters, can be a double-edged sword for your lawn. Warm temperatures can bring periods of turf-stressing drought. At the same time, clay-heavy soil varieties like Decatur Silt Loam tend to compact easily under the combined pressures of heavy summer rainfall and foot traffic.
This compaction suffocates grass roots, restricting access to essential air, water, and nutrients and leaving your lawn susceptible to thinning, patchiness, and weed invasion. Overseeding services from Lawn Pride can offer a revitalizing solution to your lawn care troubles. By introducing fresh grass seed to your Hamilton County lawn, you can thicken your turf, creating a dense barrier against weeds and improving its ability to withstand the heat and drought of the summer months. Lawn overseeding is especially effective when combined with lawn aeration, with the two tactics working together to create a lush, green appearance throughout the year.
