The major benefit of aeration is to loosen compacted soils. Aerating opens the soil by pulling out small plugs of soil depositing them on the surface to eventually decompose and disintegrate back into the ground. Make sure you leave them on the ground to decompose. This provides the opportunity for the grass root systems to acquire the nutrients, water and air that are essential for growth. Loose soils allow the roots systems to penetrate more deeply into the soil and become stronger and more resilient if they have to fight off the effects of drought or disease. Aerating relieves heavy thatch in the coring process and aids in adding this nutrient rich compost back into the soil.
