Aeration is a process where "plugs" are pulled out of the ground. This helps to reduce soil compaction, allowing water, air, fertilizer and nutrients to penetrate into the soil. This allows the grass root system to feed and thicken. A thick turf leaves far less room for weeds and insects to inhabit. In fact, we actually put down double the recommended rate of seed. We want your soil to be rich in grass so there will be less room for those unsightly weeds. A light layer of thatch (less than 1/2 inch) can be beneficial to your lawn, protecting the soil from changing temperatures.
