If you want a healthy, green, and lush lawn, core aeration is an essential part of your lawn care routine. At Kemko Lawn Service, we understand the importance of maintaining a beautiful lawn, and that’s why we offer aeration services to our clients in Loganville, GA, Cumming, and surrounding areas.
Benefits of Core Aeration
- Improved Nutrient and Water Absorption: Aeration helps to create more space for water and nutrients to reach the roots of your grass, which can help to improve nutrient and water absorption.
- Reduced Soil Compaction: Soil compaction can prevent water and nutrients from reaching the roots of your grass. Core aeration helps to reduce soil compaction, which can improve the health of your lawn.
- Enhanced Root Growth: Core aeration stimulates root growth by allowing air, water, and nutrients to penetrate the soil and reach the roots of your grass.
- Improved Soil Structure: Core aeration helps to improve the structure of your soil, which can promote healthy plant growth.
When to Aerate
The best time to core aerate your lawn depends on the type of grass you have. At Kemko Lawn Service, we recommend core aerating Bermuda and Zoysia lawns in the spring through early summer. For cool-season grasses, such as fescue, the best time to core aerate is in the fall.
Our machines pull 1-2 inch plugs about every few inches throughout your turf. It is important to make sure the lawn is wet before aeration is done. This allows for the best possible penetration of the soil. Also, remember to mark your sprinkler heads!
