If your lawn feels hard underfoot or looks thin in spots, core aeration and overseeding are two of the best things you can do for it. In Central Ohio, the timing matters.
Why lawns get compacted
Foot traffic, mowing and Central Ohio's heavy soils pack the ground down over time. Compacted soil makes it hard for air, water and nutrients to reach the roots.
Core aeration pulls small plugs of soil out of the lawn, opening space for roots to breathe, drink and feed.
Why fall beats spring
- The soil is still warm, which helps new seed sprout
- Cooler air is easier on young grass
- Weeds put up less competition than in spring
Pair it with overseeding
Overseeding right after aeration puts fresh seed into the openings, where it has good contact with the soil. That's how thin lawns fill back in.
