3. RAKE
Lightly rake the seed into the soil to ensure seed is covered just beneath the soil surface. For best results, apply Scotts® Turf Builder® Starter® Food for New Grass.

4. WATER
Water daily to keep the soil surface moist until the seedlings reach at least 2 inches tall.

____________

Overseeding:

1. PREP
