AERATION

Too much thatch can choke your lawn. For many years, professional golf course greens keepers have known that the secret to a beautiful, dense turf is aeration. By aerating their courses two to three times each year the grass roots grow more healthy and the plants thrive! Core Aeration is the process of making thousands of small holes in the turf. These aeration holes allow valuable fertilizer, water and air to reach the root zone quicker, resulting in new growth and increased root development. Opening the soil in this way also helps reduce thatch buildup and soil compaction allowing your lawn to breath easier and grow more vigorously.

Fall/Spring Core Aeration Overseeding

Core aeration pulls 1-3 inch deep plugs from your lawn to decompact the earth and allow nutrients to more easily and fully penetrate the soil. Overseeding (adding new grass seeds) after aeration creates the ideal situation to promote seed germination and result in a thicker, healthier, lusher lawn.
