Powered Overseeder
Manufacturer: Billy Goat
Product Code: OS552H
|
| This overseeder has the seed box located in front of the flails so the blade action can help "cut" seed into the soil thereby improving the soil-to-seed contact and germination rate. This configuration also requires less seed than do other machines because the seed is dropped into the soil, not the thatch. |

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I obtain the best results?
Overseed in two passes at 1/2 the application rate for your selected seed in a crisscross pattern. (Drop rate settings are under the seed box lid.) Water heavily immediately, then lightly for 10 to 14 days, keeping soil moist. After germination, water less often to promote root growth.
When is the best time to overseed?
It is best to use your over seeder in the autumn when weed seed has difficulty germinating. Warm days and cool nights with frequent watering produces the best results.
Description
Overseeding is most successful following aeration or de-thatching, or both as these processes help to create seed-to-soil contact.
Overseed when conditions are good for germination and growth.
This overseeder has the seed box located in front of the flails so the blade action can help ?cut? seed into the soil thereby improving the soil-to-seed contact and germination rate. This configuration also requires less seed than do other machines because the seed is dropped into the soil, not the thatch.
Oversseding can be done in the spring or fall. Late summer/early fall remains the optimum time for any overseeding because you avoid the summer heat and drought and the new seedlings do not have to compete with the spring germinating weeds.
