Deep plug aeration is one of the BEST things you can do for your lawn, and we can do it for you!
Colorado State University Turf School recommends doing it twice a year – once in the spring and once in the fall. Over time, foot and vehicle traffic mash down the soil in your lawn, compacting all the particles. The winter months of poor drainage and wet conditions make matters even worse. Compacted soil prevents roots from expanding, interferes with water filtration and disrupts nutrient uptake.
Lawn aeration helps alleviate this situation by creating holes in the ground, which allow air back down into the soil and create room for compacted soil to collapse back into a looser particle arrangement. When the soil is properly aerated, there’s more room for roots to expand, and rain and irrigation water is able to soak farther into the ground.
If you haven’t done your spring aeration, give us a call! We do aeration throughout the season, but doing it right as the grass starts to crop up is better! Don’t wait!!
