aerate then slit seed
or the other way around? Does it matter. If I slit seed
do I really need to aerate also? -- Searching is half the fun: life is much more manageable when thought of as a scavenger hunt as opposed to a surprise party. Jimmy Buffett |

The slice seeder will place the grass seed just below the surface, where it needs to be. The aerator would then just dislocate a lot of it. How much a lawn benefits from aeration depends on the soil/turf condition If it's compacted soil or has excessive thatch, where water has a hard time penetrating, aeration can be a big benefit. In general, if it hasn't been done in many years and you're renovating, I'd aerate. -- Searching is half the fun: life is much more manageable when thought of as a scavenger hunt as opposed to a surprise party.
