oversowing
Seeding over existing
Oversowing is sowing seeds over existing vegetation or a previously seeded area, typically to thicken turf, introduce new species, or repair bare patches: We oversowed the lawn with clover.
The practice avoids tilling or removing what's already growing.
Also called overseeding.
