The process of introducing new grass seed to an existing lawn without the mechanical perforation of the soil is a specific lawn care technique. This method focuses on improving lawn density and health by directly applying seed to the surface and fostering germination without creating holes in the ground. It’s an alternative approach when traditional aeration methods are not feasible or desired.
This approach offers several advantages, including reduced labor and equipment costs compared to full aeration and overseeding. It is particularly useful for lawns with relatively loose soil or when a quick improvement in turf density is desired. Historically, this technique has been employed by homeowners seeking a less invasive and more time-efficient solution for lawn rejuvenation, especially when dealing with smaller areas or budgetary constraints.
