What exactly is lawn aeration?

In: Uncategorized [Edit categories]

Answer:

Aeration is the process of using a mechanical, liquid, or manual lawn aerator to aerate your lawn. Making holes in the surface of your lawn, allows deeper root growth and reduces soil compaction. A lawn aerator allows air, water, and nutrients direct access to the root system. Not only does lawn aerating give you a better looking lawn, but it also thickens the turf and this promotes deeper root growth by allowing the roots to expand on grow deeper into the soil. Clay soil expand when the weather get warm causing the soil to become compacted. Core aeration allows the soil room for expansion.
