For best results mow the lawn before reseeding. Promote the
spread of grass into bare and weak areas with good quality
lawn seed after raking/verticutting. Allow fresh grass seed to
root and establish before fertilising, where necessary water
to prevent fresh seeds drying out.
Ideal times for raking/verticutting are spring and late autumn.
