AERATION & SEEDING
Lawn Aeration in Mid-Missouri
Lawn aeration is an important step when renovating your yard. It’s particularly important if your lawn gets a lot of foot traffic or experiences heavy equipment, compacting the soil. Soil aeration is the process of breaking through the soil surface and opening an avenue for water, nutrients and air exchange. With core aeration, the soil cores also bring soil microbes to the surface to help break down the thatch layer.
Some grass types will actually spread more aggressively if they are aerated (Zoysia and Bermuda grass especially). Core aerating can also be used to open the soil to provide space for cool season grass seed to germinate and improve turf density (Turf Type Tall Fescue and Kentucky Bluegrass primarily).
Lawn Seeding With Atkins
Think of seeding as an effective way to prevent weeds. Weeds are opportunistic they will take root in any bare spot or void in your stand of grass. Not only does grass look better, it also helps to hold the soil. Sloped ground infested with weeds will be more susceptible to soil erosion issues than a dense stand of turf.
We have several processes for seeding, and our technicians will recommend the best method for your situation. Among the options and equipment choices are “slicing” the seed into the ground, core aerating and overseeding, or “seedavating” (aerating, fluffing the soil and seeding at the same time).
