This is the fourth part of my lawn aeration series. If you are going to aerate your lawn coming out of summer just before fall starts then you need to prepare in advance to get the most out of the job.
In the first video I took initial preparation steps about 10 days before aerating. In the second video I applied my fertilizer and watered roughly three days prior to aeration. In the third video I aerated and explained how to get it done right.
In this video, I introduce the concept of post-aeration and what to do to get the most bang for your buck. In my opinion, it is all about top-dressing with materials that are hard to incorporate into the soil otherwise.
In the Spring I top-dressed with Worm Castings, Peat Moss, and a couple weeks later with Azomite. This time around I am top-dressing with BioChar. I encourage you to take the extra step of top-dressing your lawn after aeration even if the main plan is to over-seed or do leveling work.
Soil Mastery is a great combination BioChar and fertilizer product you can easily add to a lawn immediately following aeration. See it here: [ Ссылка ]
Make sure to Google "Turf Mechanic BioChar" and you'll find my resources on biochar that are being developed as we speak. I'm currently experimenting with five different BioChars from five different companies and I have a couple others I'm planning on getting my hands on as well including BioCharken and Soil Mastery.
►► Both are not exactly straight biochars but they are similar having some fertilization potential to them as well. Here's an affiliate link to check out the Soil Mastery biochar blend: [ Ссылка ] ◄◄
On the Turf Mechanic website, I'll have a list of all of the biochars I've experimented with and researched along with what I think about them for lawns and for gardens.
