Lowe’s home improvement expert, Mike Kraft, gives helpful tips on how to maintain the health of your lawn. In Part 3 of this lawn care series, learn the tricks to overseeding an exisiting lawn. The first step to overseeding is picking the right grass seed. Make sure to check that there is low weed content before buying. Then, use a seed spreader to distribute grass seed in a criss-cross pattern over your lawn. Once applied, do not cover with straw as weeds could begin to grow. If you are concerned with birds, try a seed starter mat. To find the remaining lawn care videos on watering and general maintenance, visit www.Lowes.com
