Should I Seed My Lawn in the Spring or Fall?

Does your grass have some thin spots or bare areas you're trying to fill in? 🌱

Seeding is one of the best ways to introduce new grass and build a thicker, healthier turf—but timing is everything.

In this video, Adam Hays, Master I Talent & Efficiency Expert, explains the best time to seed your lawn and why seasonal timing plays such a major role in success. While spring seeding may seem like a good idea, several challenges like drought stress, weed competition, and limitations with weed control can make it less effective.

That’s why we strongly recommend fall seeding. Cooler temperatures and improved soil conditions allow grass seed to germinate properly and establish strong roots before winter, leading to a thicker, healthier lawn the following year.

If you’re planning to improve your lawn, understanding when to seed is just as important as how you seed.
