There's Nothing Like A Good Plugging

In the lawn care business we deal with a whole bunch of myths. Such as, too much water can grow lawn gnomes, or if you mow too short your turf's spirit might escape, or my personal favorite pink flamingos keep the weeds away. While obviously none of these are true..... to my knowledge, there is one other myth I'd like to dispell, and that's aerating is for spring or fall only.

Aerating is typically done in the spring or fall but it is absolutely valuable any time of year. In fact more than one in a season is a great idea especially if you're in an area where your soil tends to get compacted or if you have a thatch problem. Please don't power rake as it tends to stress the turf more than help. A better solution would be to order an aeration and liquid dethatch.

The benefits of aerating regularly cannot be under sold. It helps establish a strong root system, it gets air circulation to a part of the plant that desperately needs it, it makes your watering more affective, and it recycles plant material back into the turf. All good things. So call 1-800-LAWNCARE or contact us for a good plugging.
