  • What is Aeration and Why Do It?

    Aeration is like medicine for your grass. Grassroots need air, water and nutrients to be strong and grow deep and that’s what aeration does. The aeration process involves making small holes in the ground to allow air, water and nutrients to reach the grassroots, giving you a more robust and healthy lawn. Aeration is not needed for every yard, but for certain yards, it is a great way to keep your lawn healthy and attractive.

    Aeration is the solution to heavily compacted soil, which may be present on a lawn that gets very heavy foot traffic, or which is planted on a soil base that is heavy in clay content. 

    At Just-Turf, we advise aerating your lawn when the ground is cooler. The very best time to aerate is in the fall when the temperatures have cooled off, when the weed pressure is minimal, and when grass is actively growing.
