    Mow first, then go ahead and dethatch your lawn using a medium setting on your verti-cutter seeder, without seeding. Then after you have raked and removed the thatch from the area you want to re-seed, go over the area again with seed. Lightly water the re-seeded area for the next week or two, and hope it rains a little. Good Luck, FR

    Do you really want to use it on nice thick grass like that? I guess its dethatching but the grass its pulling up looks green and healthy.

    Is there a difference between a slice seeder and an overseeder?

    just curious wouldnt it be wise to cut the grass lower first... I didnt realize the thing detaches as well .

    Def renting one this year, wasting so much money on grass seed to only have a small amount germinate.

    Can you seed a new lawn with this?

  • @utube9000
    @utube9000 10 років тому +3

    What do you do with the thatch afterward? Wouldn't raking it up disturb the seeds you just put down? Should detaching be done FIRST and THEN oversees?

    • @jeremykahle2223
      @jeremykahle2223 8 років тому

      +utube9000 It won't disturb the seed, because the seed is IN the ground, while the thatch is just laying on top.

    Great video. Would you want to mow your lawn before hand or is that no necessary? Thanks

      I would just so there is less clean up... bag it.

    • @allbiz2k10

      Always mow as low as possible before you seed, then set the mower height to 4 inches.

    Would you recommend aerating before or after reseeding?

  • @stephenwaddock4371
    @stephenwaddock4371 9 років тому +3

    Do you just leave the thatch when you're finished?

      that was basically my concern.

    • @turdsandwicher
      @turdsandwicher 9 років тому +1

      ***** Would it be better to de thatch before using one of these? I think you would rake up seeds after wards. What about aerating before this as well?

    Does it work with sod?

    • @aguyandhiscomputer
      @aguyandhiscomputer 8 років тому +27

      No, the sod won't fit in the seed bin.

    That's a thatcher with a hopper on it.

  • @jackt6112
    @jackt6112 7 років тому +3

    I don't see how it can work. It drops the seed, then the blades crush the seed into dust, then it spits the thatch and any remaining seed out the back, and the rest of the un-mashed seed lays on top of the ground, just as if you had used a broadcast spreader. What am I missing?

      Save your money, bought one two seasons ago… it just stalls out all the time and no its not because my setting is too low, for it not to stall I am basically just overseeding but with a 5000 dollar plus machine and going 10 times slower lol. The only time I found it effective was on thin loose soil, if your seeding a new property it works pretty well, but it can also dig in and bog down in one spot if the soil is too loose. I watched a bunch of these video's to make sure I wasn't missing something but unfortunately that doesn't seem to be the case, only other though is the engine needs fixing (bought brand new). Other than that I have a 5000 plus machine sitting doing nothing which I'm trying to unload for credit at store hopefully.

    • @allbiz2k10
      @allbiz2k10 6 років тому

      What brand? Did you spray the area a little bit before you tried seeding?

  • @jamesstanley7228
    @jamesstanley7228 6 років тому +1

    Per a University of WI specialist, de-thatching is almost always not necessary and is a bad thing. It usually only helps weeds to develop.

    • @allbiz2k10
      @allbiz2k10 6 років тому

      How?

    • @portbreakersu1826
      @portbreakersu1826 6 років тому +2

      First, some thatch is actually beneficial; it's only when it gets too much that it's a problem. And some grass types aren't even prone to thatch at all.
      De-thatching tears up not just the thatch, but also the roots and blades of the grass, harming it. And it also digs up the dormant weed seeds and provides light to them to grow. They recommend aerating if your thatch is too thick, and to take proper care of the lawn to not allow it to get so thick (caused by too much fertilizer, too many pesticides and improper watering).

      We get tons of moss in NW and dethatching is needed to start removing it.

    this looks like just a dethatcher to me with the bin for seed. this is not a seed slicer.
