USED DRUM SPIKE AERATOR FOR SALE SERIES
Whether you’re pushing a roller covered in spikes, or using a powered machine, these aerators are a labour-saving version of the trusty garden fork, mechanically making a series of holes in the lawn. However, if you have a lot of lawn and not much time, other types of aerator are probably the best option. In small lawns a simple garden fork can be used, in either the spring or autumn, to push holes into the ground but you can also buy manual aerators, either solid or hollow tined, which require the same effort as a fork. Aeration is the process of making air holes in the lawn to create ventilation. Scarifying your lawn will help remove thatch and debris, but if you need to relieve compacted soil underneath the turf, it's best to aerate it. This undesirable combination prevents air, water and nutrients from reaching deep down to the grass’ root system and ultimately weakens its growth, leaving the plant susceptible to pests and diseases. The penetration depth provided by the lawn aerator is ideal for this type of application.Regardless of how often you cut your lawn, over time the soil underneath the turf becomes compacted, while above ground a thick, impenetrable layer of thatch and organic debris develops around the roots. Alleviating compaction in the soil allows the roots to grow deeper providing a thicker, healthier lawn and grass. However, the spike aerator can also be adapted with a tow ball hitch with minimal effort.Īerating your lawn, grass and soil allows air, water, nutrients, fertilizer and seed to reach sub surface depths and in particular the grass roots. Attachment is simple via the standard clevis style hitch and pin.
