You can make your own Top Dressing using a mix of materials but it is much easier to buy pre-mixed Top Dressing such as Miracle-Gro EverGreen Lawn Dressing. Scarification removes the build up of debris in the lawn (known as ‘thatch’) and aeration creates small holes in the lawn, allowing air circulation and drainage. To make sure your lawn is richer and greener throughout the season, apply once a month from early spring to the Autumn. Also, in autumn the soil will still be warm and there will be moisture which are perfect conditions for any new grass seed to grow well.

Don't forget:

A5: Mow the lawn short, rake out any dead grass etc. Spread and rake Miracle-Gro EverGreen Lawn Dressing thinly over the lawn and sprinkle 25gms/sqm of seed evenly across the lawn and rake it in. Water in with a fine spray and keep moist until the grass has established.

If you've had children and pets playing on the lawn during the summer, or perhaps it is just an area that has been neglected and become uneven, you should consider flattening it down to ensure you don't have any flooding or dry spots when the winter rains set in. The lawn dressing should be spread evenly so that depressions are filled and no new humps are created. Improving established lawns

The powder also stained my fingers as I had to dig the scoop into the bag (yes, I should wear gloves). Both these processes can be done manually or with machinery depending on your budget and size of lawn.Top Dressing can also be done in spring but the soil will usually be much colder for germination to occur and the risk of frost tends to be greater.
