All are broken down into bite-sized pieces with easy to follow, step by step instructions. From how to cut your lawn before a lawn renovation and if you should you scalp your lawn and how long to leave it after the work is completed
I will be covering the benefits of aeration and why I scarify afterwards, with a little bit of science mixed in for some fun
If you just threw seeds down, they wouldn't grow, however, if you follow the tips in the advice on how to create the right conditions and how to cover them properly so that they grow. Did you know the difference between compost and soil when levelling your lawn? Well, if you are a beginner, this should be helpful as a lot of new people get this mixed up when trying to level their lawns.
But just covering the seeds and hoping for the best isn't the best plan, so as this is a beginner's video, I will teach you how to water your new grass seed as this is very important if you want it to grow.

For my lawn this is how I set it up for easy maintenance when moving and starting with sod: season 1: let the lawn grow and cut it at the height you want. Notice where water pools, where it drains, and where doesn’t get enough water. Be mindful of low spots and high spots. Correct these areas this season by moving sprinklers, installing a French drain, and removing all debris that is in the lawn such as rocks or thatch. This is now your foundation. Season 2: let lawn grow at start of season for 2-3 weeks so it is off to a good start. Then proceed to level the lawn with sand or topsoil in areas that were being missed or scalped by the mower last season. Also aeration of the lawn at this stage is also very good. Now you let the lawn grow as a great foundation is set and it’ll grow into an even yard. Season 3 and onward: every start of the season de-thatch, aerate, and little amounts of sand in any low spots that formed. And that’s it, cut at desired height, water based on weekly weather, and remove debris before it piles up or embeds itself into the lawn.

Wonderful video. Thank you.

Simple and perfect. We'll explained. I am a beginner and it's very helpful. All the best
-
Great Video! Very clear explanation.😊
-
Really good advices and i recognise it’s the way to do it. But i have these problems: - No money to buy the specialized tools - No way to store them - Not enough time to do all the steps Maybe when the kids are older i can take care of my lawn. For now, i just cut it.

I get it, that the top dressing soil and compost mixed with seeds needs to be sweeped to fit the ground. But what about leveling a ground after a winter (or next to new house like in my case) with soil or/and sand as you show on other videos? Shall be done after aerating and scaryfing and before seeding? Maybe I should give it a week rest after I aerate and fix the bumps - before seeding and fertelizing?
-
Good clear video where you get a roller like t where you can get a roller like one you used in the video.
-
Amazing video!
