Also known as core aeration, this process uses a special tool to create small holes in your lawn. These holes allow air, water, and nutrients to reach the grassroots, promoting healthy growth and a lush green lawn.
Is Aerating Your Lawn Worth It?
Absolutely! Lawn aeration offers numerous benefits:
- Stronger, deeper roots: Improved air circulation encourages deeper root growth, making your lawn more resistant to heat, drought, and foot traffic.
- Better water absorption: Aeration helps water penetrate compacted soil, preventing runoff and ensuring your lawn gets the hydration it needs.
- Enhanced nutrient uptake: Aerated soil allows fertilizers to reach the roots more effectively, maximizing their benefit.
- Reduced thatch: Thatch is a layer of dead grass and debris that can smother your lawn. Aeration helps break down thatch, promoting healthier growth.
- Improved drainage: Proper drainage prevents puddles and water-logged areas, leading to a healthier overall lawn.
When Should You Aerate Your Lawn?
Timing your lawn aeration depends on the type of grass you have:
- Cool-season grass: Aerate in spring and fall.
- Warm-season grass: Aerate from spring through summer.
You can tell your lawn needs aeration if water pools on the surface, the soil is compacted, or the grass appears thin and dull.
