Lawn Aeration and Overseeding

About Lawn Aeration and Overseeding

September in Findlay Township is the month that counts: cool nights, warm ground, planes climbing out over the hills and the Montour Trail running quiet through the cut. Lawn Aeration and Overseeding does exactly the work the calendar asks for then — core aeration to open the heavy western Pennsylvania clay, then overseeding into the holes while the soil still holds summer's warmth. Compacted ground under Imperial's lawns is why so much turf thins out by late August; pulling plugs lets water, air and root go where they were headed anyway. Mowing and cleanups fill in on either side of that autumn push. Next spring, ground that was tired and hard comes back thick, and that is the whole argument for doing it in September.
