Watering and mowing alone will not make a healthy lawn. It must be fertilized. We have included a starter fertilizer in the mixture applied, but it is only sufficient to supply enough nutrients for about 30 to 45 days. It is important for the development of a healthy lawn that a fertilization program be started at this time.
You can fertilize and seed lawns immediately following aerating. Itâs not necessary to add a thin layer of soil or composted manure, but you can. For heavily compacted soils, consider covering the lawn with one-quarter inch of compost (use sand in southern locales), raking it so it falls into aeration holes.
