Aeration in Memphis
Over time, soil naturally compacts and becomes impenetrable, making it difficult to effectively water and fertilize your lawn. Thatch, which is a layer of dead grass and other organic materials, contributes to this issue. This results in a visibly unhealthy lawn that has pooling water, bald spots, and discoloration. Luckily, the answer is simple! Our aeration in Memphis can transform your lackluster lawn in no time. See what Southern Spray can do for you today!
How to Tell If You Need Aeration
Lawn care might seem simple, but it’s actually a science! Knowing the right time to aerate depends on the specific needs of your grass, including what type of grass it is, how you use your property, and the last time you aerated. We offer aeration in Memphis in the spring for the best results.
Lawn aeration is ideal for properties with conditions like:
- Hard, compacted soil that’s difficult to dig in.
- Poor drainage or standing water.
- Damaged grass from foot traffic or pet activity.
- New homes with compacted soil from construction equipment.
What is Core Aeration?
Our aeration in Memphis uses a process called core aeration. We use a specialized machine that pulls up small plugs of soil, or cores. This creates thousands of channels that break up hard soil and allow water, nutrients, and oxygen to reach grass roots. We also leave the soil plugs on the surface of your lawn and they will eventually rejoin the soil, ensuring your property doesn’t lose any nutrients.
Benefits of Aerating Your Lawn
If your lawn is looking worse for wear, aeration can be the boost it needs. When soil is compacted, it stops your grass from growing properly and can cause issues like yellow patches, bald spots, and thinning grass. Our aeration in Memphis undoes this damage and more!
Benefits of aeration include:
- Fewer weeds like dandelions and crabgrass.
- Increased resistance to drought and disease.
- More uniform grass growth.
- Stronger roots that grow deep underground.
- Better water and fertilizer uptake.
