When will the first results from the turbogrün lawn aerator be visible?
According to a scientific study (see the study here), the turbogrün Lawn Aerator is a highly effective way to break down thatch for the long term, increase soil activity and strengthen your lawn overall. Breaking down the thatch also significantly reduces the risk of lawn fungal diseases.
When will I see the first results?
There's no fixed timeframe. The Lawn Aerator starts a decomposition process in the soil: the existing thatch is composted, releasing nutrients along the way. This process takes a little time.
One visible sign can be the occasional appearance of mushrooms. That's not a problem – it's actually a good sign that the thatch has started to break down.
Note: Even if you don't see any mushrooms, composting is still taking place – just invisibly, in the soil.
How can you check the results?
Here's a simple way to check:
Before applying, cut out a small "slice of cake" from your lawn
After about five weeks, check the same spot again
As a rule, you'll find that the thatch has reduced by up to a third.
Experience in practice
On large golf courses, a thatch layer of around five centimetres was observed to shrink by about two centimetres within five weeks. At the same time, the firmness of the root zone increased noticeably.
In summary
The turbogrün Lawn Aerator doesn't work overnight – it works for the long term, by breaking down the thatch in the soil. With a little patience, the thatch will noticeably decrease, brown patches will fade and your lawn will become healthier and more resilient overall.
