π± Overseed Now or Repair in Spring? Here's the Honest Answer.
If the lawn is mostly there and just thin, overseed it now. Fall seed gets a head start that spring seed never catches up to.
If more than half of it is bare, weeds or dead, seed won't save it. That lawn needs sod.
Here is how we tell the difference on a visit:
πΏ Grab a handful and pull. If it lifts like a carpet, the roots are gone.
πΏ Count the bare patches. A few, overseed. Everywhere, sod.
πΏ Look at the weeds. Clover and crabgrass taking over means the grass already lost.
Either way, the work happens in the next few weeks, not in April.
