top dressing
Top dressing is a gardening practice where a thin layer of organic material or extra soil is spread across the surface of the main soil or lawn. This is done to improve soil nutrition, increase moisture retention, enhance the soil structure, and encourage healthy growth of plants or grass. It can also help to fill in bare areas and reduce soil compaction.
