Why aeration

Article 1: Why aeration is mandatory for your lawn health?

While maintaining your lawn look and texture of the grass the most important thing is to consider the health of the grass. No matter how beautiful the decor is or how much energy you are putting in to trim the grass every week, if it is not nourished properly all your labor would be in vain.

To maintain the health of the plant or strand of grass, aeration is the most beneficial process. So what is aeration? Aeration is the process of perforating soil with small holes to allow penetration of water and other nutrients through grass

A number of dissolved gasses and metals are present in the soil which deteriorate the health and growth of the grass. Through aeration, water and air come in close contact to remove all the turf and thatch from the soil.  Here are some benefits of aeration:

• Aeration is not only the best way to improve the health of your lawn and make it thicker but it also enhances the effectiveness of fertilization.

• All the damage done to plants through excessive water, poor drainage, sunlight or any other reason can be cured through aeration.

• It is considered the major process to improve plants health and cure the diseases of plants.

• Aeration is the best option to go for if you have heavy foot traffic.

You can aerate your lawn once a year to maintain its look and health. Fall is the most suitable time of the year for aeration or if you are renovating your lawn then you should also consider aerating it first.
