Optimal Timing for Lawn Aeration
Understanding the optimal timing for aeration can significantly impact the health and longevity of a lawn or landscape. Proper scheduling ensures soil and root systems receive adequate oxygen, promoting vigorous growth and reducing compaction.
Spring is ideal for aeration as it prepares the soil for active growth, allowing grass roots to establish strongly during the growing season.
Fall aeration helps lawns recover from summer stress and prepares the soil for winter, encouraging healthy root development.
High temperatures and drought conditions during summer can stress turf; aeration during this period is generally not recommended.
Aeration should be performed when soil is moist but not overly wet to prevent compaction and ensure effective penetration.
