Lawns can sometimes suffer from soil compaction and thatch build up. Core plug aeration relieves these issues by pulling out cylinder like cores that consist of a mixture of thatch, soil, and grass which are then redistributed on the surface of the lawn.
Major benefits of aeration are:
Aeration and seeding fescue lawns can help prepare them for the growing season and improve their overall health . Aeration removes soil plugs, which loosens the soil and creates space between grass blades. This allows for better air, water, and nutrient access to the roots, which can encourage new growth and reduce thatch. Seeding then replenishes thin or bare areas with new grass, which can help repair damage from heat, drought, disease, or other stressors.
