why your lawn needs core aeration
What happens here
The video introduces core aeration, explaining that it involves pulling a series of 2-inch deep plugs of soil out of the ground. This process creates channels that allow essential elements like air, water, and nutrients to penetrate deeper into the lawn's root system. The visual shows a hand holding several soil plugs removed from the grass, illustrating the outcome of this action.
Goal: Allow air, water, and nutrients into the roots for better absorption.
