Product Information

When most people think “thatch” they think of a layer of clippings from past mowings that gradually builds up, eventually giving the lawn a spongy feel. And many times that is exactly what it is. Other times, however, there is more to the thatch than clippings. Sometimes there are also stolons (also known as “runners”) mixed in with the clippings, along with dead leaves, twigs, dirt blown in from far-off places and more. The stolons are particularly problematic, because leaving them in place will promote weed growth and accelerate the process of lawn degradation. This is where it pays to know the difference between verticutting and dethatching.

With them you can achieve a beautiful lawn to admire or lounge on leaving you with much more time to do the more enjoyable gardening jobs. After all seasonal work is finished, clean both the machine and the collection box and store in a dry area, such as garage or garden shed. In case you don’t already know, thatch is a combination of dead stems and roots that forms between the blades of healthy, young grass. Now, a certain amount of thatch is not only harmless but even necessary for a healthy lawn. It provides cushioning and reduces compression in high-traffic areas. However, too much thatch can become a big problem for your lawn as it absorbs the air, water, and food that should be going to the younger turf.

There are some who would argue that verticutting and dethatching are the most important things to know when it comes to lawn care and I wouldn’t necessarily argue with that. If your lawn requires verticutting and you neglect to do it in a timely fashion you could be seriously undermining the health of the lawn long term. Same with dethatching.
