To have a healthy lawn you have to aerate!Is your lawn the sore spot on the street? Do you wish you had a healthy soft lawn your kids could play on? There are many different types of lawn aerators, and liquid aerators are one excellent way to improve your turf.
Liquid Aerators
There are many types of lawn aerators, and all but liquid aerators are mechanical. Liquid aerators use natural compounds to condition the soil. The formulas in the aerators loosens compact soil & aggregates loose and sandy soils giving you the perfect healthy soil for healthy grass. Soil that is too compact does not allow grass roots to develop properly, while soil that is too loose doesn’t give the grass any foundation to hold onto so it is easily washed away or torn out. With the proper soil density, grass roots now have the ability to deepen and broaden giving it more access to water and essential nutrients. And of course strengthening the roots of the grass will improve the overall yard. Now your lawn can fight off bugs, weeds, and disease more easily.
Mechanical aeration is good, even essential, unless you have a good liquid aerator. Liquid aerator works as well as mechanical aeration plus it has acid & chemicals in it which allow the soil to recover from toxins. Many lawn have toxins left over from previous pesticide and herbicide treatments done throughout the year.
Liquid aeration also pushes sodium past the layer of soil where the grass roots are. Most lawns get a lot of sodium from watering. Sodium & clay have opposite charges which encourages high compaction in clay soils where sodium is present. With out the sodium, the grass roots can expand and grow more easily.
High compaction in clay soils isn’t the only sodium related problem. Sodium also reduces nutrient absorption. So using a good liquid aerator will reduce the amount of sodium in the root zone of the grass allowing the grass to absorb much needed nutrients.
One application of liquid lawn aeration is not going to cut it. Just like any other forms of aeration, you must use liquid aerator on a regular basis for a happy healthy lawn! There are a lot of liquid aerators to choose from. Find a good place to compare them before buying.
