Benefits of Lawn Aeration

​There’s an easy way to keep your lawn looking beautiful, green, lush, and inviting-it’s called ‘Lawn Aeration’. This concept is straight forward and has many immediate benefits that will make your lawn very happy.  Our weather in Minnesota is hard on almost everything including your lawn! You know, those pesky hard-as-a-rock spots in your yard, that patch of grass that always looks a bit ‘off’, that worn down spot that you can never get grass to grow, that area of your lawn that always has a puddle left behind after it rains…..sounds like a job for 3 Bears Landscaping and a lawn aeration machine!

So, What is Lawn Aeration?
Lawn Aeration is an almost mid-evil practice in theory as little pitch fork spikes that are thrust into your lawn pulling out plug-like cylinders from the soil (don’t worry they will repair themselves in a week with new white roots). The newly formed holes will allow your lawn to breathe in and out oxygen much easier making it healthier, softer, and nutrient-rich. The missing plugs in your lawn will give your lawn new life and will improve the root quality. With improved root quality comes a greener grass, softer soil, and neighborhood envy. 

Let’s go over the technical benefits of lawn aeration:
  • A greener and healthier lawnStronger root system
  • Softer soil
  • Reduced run-off and puddles
  • Promotes growth
  • Reduce thatch
  • Less time between watering
  • Improved penetration of fertilizer 

Don’t have a lawn aeration machine lying around the garage?  Not to worry, at 3 Bears Landscaping we have all of your lawn aeration needs covered.  The best time for lawn aeration in Minnesota is in the autumn or the spring due to cool temperatures and minimal weed growth. Please give us a call we will develop a plan for your lawn!

I hadn't ever really understood why people suggest getting a lawn aerated, but I can see why after reading the article. It says that doing so ensures softer soil and improved fertilizer penetration. I've noticed the grass in my yard hasn't been very responsive to the fertilizer I've put on it, so maybe lawn aeration is the answer to my dilemma.

Thanks for explaining how Lawn Aeration pulls out plug-like cylinders from soil in order to allow your yard to breath oxygen much easier. Since it can help your yard be healthier, it would probably be important to hire a professional in order to make sure the right tools and techniques are used to have the best results. When choosing a professional, it would probably be a good idea to look online and find one that is in your area so you can talk to them about your services and have them easily get to your home.

I like it when you said that lawn aeration is an easy and effective way to maintain a good looking and healthy lawn. Thanks for providing information about the whole process and how it benefits your lawn. In the event that I will landscape my front lawn, I will hire a lawn care service and advise them if they can possibly incorporate such a method.

Aerating your lawn is so important but usually only has to be done about once a year. If you aerate you will allow your lawn to breathe in and out oxygen much easier making it healthier, softer, and nutrient-rich. Very good explanation for the importance of aerating. thanks

It's awesome that you mention that having your lawn aerated can help it grow more. I want my lawn to look healthy and beautiful, so I'm thinking about hiring someone to aerate it this month. I'm going to look for a good business in my area that offers lawn aeration services.

My uncle has been thinking about getting his lawn aerated because he would really like to make sure that it can stay healthy. He would really like to get it done by a professional in order to make sure that it can be done correctly. Thanks for explaining how the lawn will be able to breathe which can help make it more nutrient-rich to improve the root quality.
