Does your lawn need a Slit Seeding?
- If your lawn has bare spots
- If your lawn has thinning areas
- If you are looking for a greener, denser lawn area without the mess or cost of renovating a complete lawn area.
The major benefit in slit seeding over conventional seeding is that you get direct seed to soil contact. It allows for a clean approach without disrupting your existing turf. It can help improve the overall appearance of your lawn. A slit seeder is a machine that slices even rows into the soil /existing turf, and drops grass seed directly into those rows to improve the growth rate. With our slit seeding service we also apply a starter fertilizer of slow release nutrients to promote healthy growth. The key to a successful slit seeding is the quality of seed, fertilizer, and adequate water.
A slit seeding service can be offered in conjunction with other services, to improve results. A great program we are offering includes a slit seeding, with applying an organic compost mixture over the seed to aid in the growth process. The mixture promotes extra nutrients, holds moisture better, and is an all-natural material.
A slit seeding can be included with a lawn Aeration, where lawn aeration is first performed then followed by the slit seeding program to help relieve compacted soil, and better seed germination.
Slit seeding is also recommended after a dethatching service to improve bare areas where the thatch has been removed.
