Growing healthy lawns from the soil up.

Why is core aerification important?
Jake's core aerification programs are designed to maintain a healthy lawn and in some cases bring your lawn back to life. Seasonal aerification is recommended on a 1-2 year program depending on your lawns growing environment and maintenance practices. Many conditions can determine the frequency of aeration including seasonal stresses such as heat and drought stress, turf loss due to lawn disease, soil type and mechanical wear.
 
Deeper roots better utilize water, oxygen and nutrients.
In some cases overseeding may be beneficial for neglected lawns or lawns needing a better quality seed blend incorporated into the existing turfgrass stand. Opening up your soil profile not only allows oxygen and water to reach the root zone where many nutrients are absorbed but also contributes to a deeper root system. Why is a deeper root system important? When summer stresses such as high heat temperatures, drought, lawn disease or other stresses strike your lawn, a deeper root system will recover stronger and healthier than a poorly rooted lawn. Deeper roots are capable of reaching more resources such as water and nutrients stored deeper in the soil profile whereas a shallow root system struggles to survive depending on a limited amount of water and nutrients found in the immediate soil profile.

A happy soil makes for a healthier turf.
​Along with Jake's GrassRoots, proper cultural practices and a balanced nutritional lawn program, core aerification of your lawn will make it healthy, happy and the first lawn to recover from Michigan summer stress.
