why your lawn needs core aeration
What happens here
The video highlights that aeration acts to decompress otherwise very compacted soil. Compacted soil hinders grass growth by restricting root expansion and limiting the movement of water and air. By creating holes, the aeration process loosens the soil, allowing roots to grow more freely and access resources more easily. The visual shows the underside of the aerator with its tines designed to penetrate and pull plugs from the soil.
Goal: Soften compacted soil to promote root growth.
