reseeded

Planted lawn anew

Reseeded is the past tense of reseed, meaning to plant seeds again in an area that has already been seeded once.

Lawns and fields are commonly reseeded after damage from drought, disease, or heavy use: We reseeded the bare patches in the backyard after the drought.

In sports tournaments, reseeded describes when competitors are assigned new rankings or positions after preliminary rounds, redistributing them for subsequent play.
