All right guys so that's this part of the lawn aerated now, I'm just
going to take a selection of cores to show you.
So just a selection of cores out of this lawn -
the camera to focus, there you go now.
To show you what the thatch is. This area here this is our soil or this area here is actually
our plant, not an awful lot of it there, this bit here that's quite spongy - that's our thatch.
So whenever we hollow core we're looking to remove some of that.
That's a real benefit between hollow core aerating as you're removing some of that thatch
and then down at the bottom here, soil.
so
So here's another core
oh you can see the sponge
this layer here between here and then here and here
this is the thatch is it pressing in?
That's what we're looking to remove with the aerating,
and then we have our soil here, which is nice and crumbly
which is pretty - there's pretty nice soil in this lawn.
Let's get back to it.
All right guys - so we've done one pass here so I'm going to have a look and see
how much moss and thatch has come out of this lawn.
So here's the debris that's come out of the lawn.
You see, just a lot of moss and thatch and grass.
So this is going to let the lawn breathe.
So there's still a bit of moss and thatch in this
so we did it once - we're going to do it twice.
All right guys so my helper Daniel here, he's just putting on the moss killer.
so the reason we put it on afterwards it kills the moss a much better job.
Iron doesn't actually kill moss. There's no products out there that will kill moss - iron burns moss
so whenever you put it on before you're just burning the top.
Whenever you scarify you're opening the moss up.
If you think of it the moss sitting up, and whenever your scarify through it
you're putting the lines down it so whenever we put the moss control on we put the moss control
on afterwards and it gets right down into the base of it and it makes a much much better job.
