Dr. Tom Samples, a lawn expert from the University of Tennessee Agricultural Extension Service, agrees and points out that dethatching is an important part of maintaining a healthy, green lawn. "Thatch develops naturally as lawn grasses grow and slough off roots, shoots and leaves. Some thatch helps protect the roots, but excessive thatch prevents moisture, oxygen and nutrients from penetrating the soil."
Thatching and dethatching manually can be a time-consuming project, but knowing how to utilize the latest equipment, such as a power dethatcher, can mean freeing up more time to enjoy a healthy green lawn. Learn more about time-saving lawn maintenance techniques at AllAboutLawns. com.
