Maintenance Tips

  • Aerate Lawn Annually: Regular aeration helps to relieve soil compaction, making it easier for air, water, and nutrients to reach the roots. Aerate lawn once or twice a year—ideally in the spring or fall—to maintain a thriving lawn.
  • Water Immediately After Aeration: After aerating, water your lawn deeply to help the soil settle and improve root penetration. Consistent moisture is essential for root health and recovery.

Fertilize After Aeration: Apply fertilizer right after aeration to take advantage of the holes created in the soil. This helps nutrients reach deeper into the root zone, promoting stronger and healthier grass growth.
