The Basics of Core Aeration
Core aeration is a process of lawn aeration where machinery removes plugs, or “cores”, of soil from a lawn. Aeration reduces soil compaction, allowing proper nutrients to penetrate through the soil. Core aeration is recommended when seeding because it loosens soil for the seeds to germinate. Benefits of core aeration include:
- Allows sunlight, water, and nutrients to adequately reach grass roots, protecting them from weeds, pests, or diseases.
- Compacted soil can cause your grass to wither and develop brown patches. Aeration ensures water penetrates deep in the ground, hydrating the roots.
- Aeration allows air, water, and fertilizers to penetrate the soil. When nutrients penetrate deeper into the root zone, this improves the effectiveness of your seeding.
Benefits of Seeding Your Lawn
Introducing new grass seed to your lawn restores bare areas and thickens existing turf. Over time, grass plants reach their peak and need to be replaced. Various factors contribute to the deterioration of the grass, such as foot traffic, heat, dehydration, environmental conditions, and pet waste. Seeding your lawn also makes it more resistant to diseases. Incorporating different grass seed blends prevents diseases from wiping out your entire yard.
Signs You Need Aeration and Seeding
Aeration and seeding is a renewal process that helps rejuvenate your lawn to the lush yard it once was. If you notice any of the following signs, it may be a good idea to schedule aeration and seeding services:
- Puddles- Puddles are a sign of compacted soil. The more compacted the soil, the less likely the roots will get the nutrients it needs.
- Patchy areas- Patches in your yard indicate that you should seed your lawn.
- Discoloration- Yellow and brown grass is a warning sign of soil compaction.
- Thinning grass- Bald patches and slow growth may indicate that the roots cannot get the proper nutrients or absorb water.
