Over & Slice Seeding

Slice seeding (also called slit seeding) is one of the most effective processes to seed a lawn. It’s done using a machine called a slice seeder that places the grass seed exactly where it needs to be, in the soil. The machine is about the same size as a standard lawn mower and has spinning knives on the bottom that cut furrows in the soil. The machine then applies grass seed from a hopper into the furrows using spinning wheels. This creates optimum seed to soil contact, a crucial element for high germination rates of grass seed. High germination rates create better results and will build turf density with less wasted seed. After slice seeding it’s very important to water to see the best results.
