Why should I aerate my lawn and how often? |
 |
Aerating once a year is encouraged especially if you have heavy clay soil. Consistent annual aerating will loosen soil compaction, promote root growth, and decrease heavy thatch. |
|
When is the best time for aeration? |
|
Any time the soils are soft enough for pulling a soil plug. Late season is when we do the majority of our aeration's. The main objective of aerating is to relieve soil compaction and to promote root growth. The fall and winter season is the ideal time for this, because the plant carbohydrates are utilized in the roots and not the plant leaf. Also, avoid aerating in the spring if crabgrass pre-emergent is applied. The penetrating tines of the aerator will puncture through the pre-emergent barrier that prevents crabgrass from growing. |

Please keep in mind that every lawn has its own potential. On our initial consultation visit, we will identify and explain the strengths and weaknesses of your particular lawn. Not all lawns require the same treatments during the year. With your help, CLC will recommend a program that will improve the appearance and health of your turf. As we continue to service your property, we will be on the lookout for other potential problems, such as disease and insects. We are mindful that many turf “problems” are temporary and do not usually need treatment. In this situation, we give advice and make corrective applications only when necessary and only with your approval. CLC will not apply unnecessary pesticides into the environment.
Country Lawn Care encourages you to shop around, ask questions, and compare our price and professional quality with other companies. CLC is not the largest lawn care company out there, but we are one of the most experienced. We are licensed by the Ohio Dept. of Agriculture with more than 40 years of combined experience.
