aeration

What do most do about the plugs that are left after aerating a lawn??? PLease advise.

Here in NC, we leave them. The first rains will begin breaking them down and they dissolve back into the soil after a short time.

Leave the plug very benificial kinda hard on blades but they dont last long.

I probably wouldn't do this for customers but on my own lawn I fashioned a drag mat out of a section of chain link weighted down at the rear and pulled it around the lawn. I do this anyway a couple times a year to level out the worm mounds. And I don't do it right after aerating, waited till the holes were almost closed up and cores broken down. Its slowly smoothing out what was a really rough lawn when we moved in.
