Frequently Asked Questions

Q. What is liquid organic aeration?
A. Liquid organic aeration is a combination of seaweed, humates, compost, and yucca extract.
Q. Why is liquid organic aeration more effective then core aeration?
A. Liquid organic aeration is more effective because it aerates 100% of the area to a depth of 10 to 12 inches. Core aerations only goes down 3 inches and only to where the hole is made.
Q. What are common lawn diseases I should look out for?
A. “Red Thread” Lawns containing perennial ryegrass, fine fescues and some typesof Kentucky bluegrass are especially susceptible to red thread disease. The blades are the only part of the grass plant that are affected, and death starts at the tips and moves downward. The symptoms include:
- Tan, dead leaf blades
- Circular or irregular-shaped patches of grass that die back
- Pink, pale red or orange fungal growth (known as “red threads”) extending beyond the tips of infected leaf blades.
- Infected grass patches that may be scattered or merge together to create larger areas of infected grass.
- A robust lawn will have an easier time withstanding attacks from red thread. As always, proper mowing, watering and fertilizing practices are recommended.
