Lawn / Turf Aeration – Why?
Aeration is your friend if you want a thick healthy lawn…
Soil compaction is a common cause of poorly performing turf and bare spots in your lawn. We can relieve soil compaction through mechanical aeration, which will increase the absorption of moisture, oxygen and nutrients to the deeper soil layers.
This will allow the roots of your lawn to drive deeper into the soil and create a stronger root base. Some of these roots will survive and some will perish as they push into the dryer layers of soil, depositing organic matter and kick-starting the carbon cycle. This carbon cycle constantly deposits humus and creates top soil throughout your lawn.
In due course this process will produce an increase of microbiology and fertility of the soil and a reduction of fertiliser inputs required to maintain lush health and deep green colour.
We mechanically aerate towing an Aerator trailer behind our Toro mower and we can even mow + Aerate at the same time. Some of our acreage customers have seen such great results from regular aeration that they have requested we aerate every time we mow their property.
