HUSKER LAWN SERVICE

AERATION

Core aeration is available in the spring and fall. It is simply one of the best things you can do for your lawn. We use only Ryan lawn aerators which pull more and deeper plugs than other types. Aeration provides 5 main benefits listed below.

1. Reduces thatch build-up

A heavy thatch layer promotes disease and insects

2. Reduces soil compaction

Compacted clay soils inhibit root growth and water penetration

3. Stimulates new root growth

Root systems will grow back thicker, stronger, and deeper

4. Creates more efficient watering and fertilizing

Water, air, and fertilizer can easily penetrate the soil

5. Essential in keeping root systems strong and healthy

A healthy root system creates thicker turf, increases heat and drought tolerance, reduces weed and crabgrass growth, and decreases disease and insect damage

SEEDING

Overseeding is also available in the spring and fall. It is recommended with aeration for better seed germination. It helps lawns that are thin, damaged, or have a history of disease problems. We offer a variety of certified seed blends including bluegrass, ryegrass, fine and turf type fescues.

Bluegrass/Ryegrass

Our blue/rye blend is perfect for thin or damaged yards. It will help thicken your lawn in a few short weeks. It is also disease resistant making it a great selection for seeding areas damaged by disease.

Turf Type Fescue

Our fescue blend is perfect for heavy shaded lawns where other grasses have struggled. It is also a great alternative to bluegrass because of its low maintenance and heat and drought tolerance.
