The best time to aerate your lawn is between May and August, as recommended by the University of Georgia’s Bermuda Lawn Calendar.
Aerating your lawn at the right time offers several key benefits:
- Improved Grass Growth: Aeration helps air, water, and nutrients reach the roots, promoting healthier, stronger grass.
- Better Soil Health: It reduces soil compaction, allowing roots to spread more easily.
- Increased Fertilizer Efficiency: Nutrients from fertilizers and water reach the grass roots more effectively.
- Enhanced Root Development: By creating space for roots to grow deeper, your lawn becomes more resilient to drought and stress.
- Thicker, Greener Lawn: Aeration helps your lawn become denser and more vibrant, improving its overall appearance.
Aerating at the right time—typically between May and August—maximizes these benefits, ensuring your lawn stays healthy and beautiful all season long.
