Lawn Aeration in Marlborough, MA

A healthy lawn requires a lot of maintenance. That is, of course, if you don't use crucial lawn maintenance techniques like timely fertilizer, watering, and mowing. But putting things aside, it's crucial to make sure that the soil beneath your lawn receives plenty of nutrients. And aerating your grass is the best way to achieve that! As it makes it easier for air, water, and other nutrients to easily penetrate compacted grass and lawn thatch, lawn aeration is essential for a healthy lawn. JM Lawn Care is here to help if you're new to lawn aeration. With the help of this fast approach on aeration, you can get rid of thatch and make room for a lovely lawn. You'll discover the finest reasons, methods, and timing for aerating your lawn.

The loose, organic layer of dead and live material that develops between the area of green vegetation and the soil surface is known as thatch, and it is present in lawns as shoots, stems, and roots. When turf creates organic garbage more quickly than it can decompose, thatch build-up occurs. Thatch is not always terrible. Lawns are insulated from harsh temperatures and changes in soil moisture by a thin covering of thatch. However, thatch that is thicker than an inch can be problematic. A buildup of thatch can prevent oxygen from reaching the turf roots by retaining too much water. By housing insects and disease-causing organisms, it can potentially exacerbate pest issues. Your lawn has a hard time breathing because of the buildup of thatch. Lawn thatch can be reduced with spring or fall lawn aeration. Aerating a lawn can be as easy as randomly digging holes in the ground with a pitchfork, spade, or your hand, although this method would only be effective in minor situations. This method will not be adequate for individuals whose lawns require more lawn aeration, and you will need to undertake core aeration. Additionally, instead of just skimming the leaves off the top of the grass in the fall, you should rake thoroughly to eliminate as much lawn thatch as you can.

Even if there is still much to learn about lawn aeration, the majority of experts agree that it is advantageous to the turf to have its surface opened up. The soil ecology and the soil microorganisms that help break down thatch naturally and enhance the lawn depend on air and water. Since they allow for optimum topsoil air intake and drainage, good drainage conditions are crucial for the proper growth of grasses.

aerating lawn
 By allowing air to enter the soil, which results in gaseous exchange, you are aerating the soil. In other words, the grassroots breathe in oxygen and exhale carbon dioxide. Excessive carbon dioxide in the soil is bad because it can restrict or prevent the soil's ability to absorb water and nutrients.

However, entirely other issues may arise if the grass is not aerated during the cold, rainy seasons like autumn and winter. For instance, the compacting impact of walking about and using heavy-duty lawn maintenance equipment may cause your soil to experience surface sealing. This can limit gaseous exchange by preventing water from penetrating the soil and lingering on the surface. This may eventually result in the accumulation of moss and fibrous growth. If the soil compaction is not alleviated, neither air nor water will be able to reach the ground level, which would foster the growth of diseases.
