Winters coming. Protect the kingdom at all cost.

What happens here

Next, the lawn is aerated. The video shows a gas-powered walk-behind aerator being unloaded from a truck using a ramp, then started by pulling a cord. The individual then operates the aerator, guiding it across the lawn. Aeration creates small holes in the soil, which helps to relieve compaction, improve air circulation, and allow water and nutrients to penetrate deeper to the grass roots, preparing the lawn for robust growth come spring.

Goal: Improve soil compaction and nutrient absorption in the lawn.
