Overseeding is a great way to fill in any bare or patchy areas on your lawn in Tennessee with new grass growth, but you'll want to eliminate weeds before you do it. That's because weeds are invasive and will compete with the grass seeds for much-needed nutrients and resources, hindering their success. However, you'll want to wait a few weeks after applying weed control treatments before overseeding to ensure you get the best results. Fortunately, if you're on a professional lawn care plan, this is likely already taken care of, as they'll time their treatments perfectly to ensure the seeds have the best chance of germinating and establishing roots.


It's ideal to eliminate weeds before overseeding your lawn.

If you're planning to overseed your lawn, eliminating weeds first is ideal. After all, weeds are invasive plants that steal nutrients and resources from your grass for themselves, and they'll do the same with the seeds! They'll hinder their success, leaving them with less of what they need to germinate and grow into healthy, beautiful grass. So, by eliminating weeds before overseeding, you can ensure the seeds have optimal conditions to flourish and fill in any bare or patchy areas on your lawn.

Common weeds in Tennessee include crabgrass, dandelions, and clover.
