How GreenAer Works

HomeTopPic2_edited.jpg

What happens when
you
open up your soil

Spray GreenAer on your whole lawn, water it in, and leave it alone. Over the next 45 days you'll start noticing things: water disappearing faster where it used to pool, bare patches finally filling in, less time hauling a hose across the yard.

​

GreenAer won't fix years of neglect overnight — nothing will — but it keeps working long after you've put the bottle away. And unlike a core aerator that punches holes in roughly 5% of your lawn and calls it done, GreenAer treats every single inch.

DAY 1

Apply & water in. Spray your entire lawn. GreenAer goes to work immediately as it soaks through the soil profile.

DAY 30-45

First changes appear. Faster drainage, less pooling, bare spots starting to green up and spread.

3 - 6 MONTHS

Roots deepen. Grass thickens, colour improves, and every drop of fertilizer goes further.

1+ YEAR

Big things happen. With continued use, a lawn that looks and performs like a professional took care of it.

Aerates & Opens Your Soil

When air flows freely underground, the entire ecosystem changes. Microbial life thrives, natural nutrients multiply, and everything you apply to your lawn actually gets absorbed and used.

​

  • Increases microbial activity — adds nutrients naturally and makes fertilizer far more effective

  • Greater soil porosity lets inputs reach the root zone instead of sitting on the surface

  • Roots grow deeper and wider — a stronger root system means healthier, more resilient turf

Coverage vs Core Aeration:   100% vs 5%

Revives Bare & Problem Patches

That stubbornly bare strip by the driveway. The corner that floods every rain. The spot that never goes green no matter what you do. These usually share one cause: localized compaction or dry spots.

​

  • Warm- and cool-season grasses finally spread into areas blocked by localized compaction

  • Low-lying areas that stay perpetually saturated are some of GreenAer's most dramatic wins

  • Works on lawns, gardens, and sports fields — anywhere compaction limits turf quality

New growth in Bare Patches:   30–60 days

Fixes Drainage & Water Retention

Too wet in one spot, bone dry in another? Both problems come from the same cause: compacted soil that can't move water where it needs to go. GreenAer fixes the structure so water behaves properly.

​

  • Water flows through the soil profile, ending the soggy patches that refuse to drain

  • More water penetrates deeply rather than running off — less watering, same or better results

  • Water retained deeper in the profile encourages roots to follow it down, improving drought resistance

Visible Drainage Improvement:   45 Days

Prevents Hydrophobic Soils

Severely compacted, dry soil doesn't just restrict water — it starts to actively repel it. You can see this when water beads off your lawn instead of soaking in. GreenAer stops this from happening and reverses it if it already has.

​

  • Prevents soil from turning hydrophobic during drought — a condition that makes watering nearly useless

  • If your lawn does go dormant due to heat stress, GreenAer helps it recover faster when rain returns

  • Keeps soil receptive to moisture year-round, not just after heavy rainfall

Dormancy Recovery:   Measurably faster
