Q: Is plug aeration better than liquid aeration?

• <div><p>Plug aeration is more effective than spike aeration, although it mars the appearance of your lawn until the plugs decompose. This can take a few weeks and some homeowners find it distressing, especially if they are planning an event and can't have guests stepping on the soil cores. Liquid aeration is just as effective without having to bore holes.</p></div>

Q: What should I do if my seeds aren’t sprouting?

• <div><p>If it&rsquo;s been a few weeks and you haven&rsquo;t seen anything pop up, double-check your seed packet and make sure you didn&rsquo;t miss any steps. Did they need cold stratification (putting seeds in the freezer and then transferring to water before planting)? Do they have an exceptionally long germination period? </p><p> If you&rsquo;ve followed all of the directions closely, you may just have had a bad batch of seeds. (Sadly, it happens.)</p></div>

Q: How often should I aerate my lawn?

• <div><p>Experts recommend aerating a lawn at least once a year. If you haven&rsquo;t aerated your lawn recently, or if it has a significant amount of thatch buildup, you may need to aerate it twice annually for a few years. Keeping up with a regular aeration schedule helps ensure the long-term health of your yard. </p></div>

Q: How do you rough up soil for grass seed?

• <div><p>The easiest way to rough up soil to accept grass seed and provide the best opportunity for its growth is to make several passes over the area with a garden tiller and rake away the loosened vegetation and debris. However, in some cases, very hard ground may require using a shovel or pick to break up pieces into smaller chunks that the tiller can handle more easily. </p></div>

Zach did a great job on our lawn. He cut, trimmed and blew the clippings so it looked very nice. He was on time and did this on one of the hottest days. I would recommend him for your lawn care.

He does a good job. He will trim shrubs but he does not do that for us. He was doing the lawn before we moved in so he was familiar with the lawn. We told him not to mow the grass when it was wet and he did not. When the grass was dry we called him and he came out. I would recommend him.
