The right tools and knowledge can turn your lawn into a rich carpet.
Here’s a couple of words few people know: scarifying and de-thatching. Nope, nothing to do with Halloween – and everything to do with achieving or maintaining the perfect lawn.
Scarifying sounds scary but it is a process that breaks the soil of the lawn, giving the grass more room to grow lushly. De-thatching is much the same thing – a kind of powerful, deep lawn raking which removes excess thatch (the layer of debris, dead grass, and other organic matter lying between grass blades and the soil’s surface).
So how do you tackle these tasks? With the right Ryobi tools, of course.
Ryobi has launched the 18V ONE+ Brushless Scarifier. Most effective when the lawn is dry, the Scarifier has 16 stainless steel blades on a drum that lightly perforates the lawn, removing moss and a layer of other debris.
Ryobi’s scarifier is tough enough to deal with harder soil types. It has four depth settings to help you achieve the lawn you’ve always wanted, but without all the effort of raking or the expensive of bigger machines.
Because scarifying is a tough job, this unit requires 2 x 18V ONE+ batteries to drive the powerful brushless motor and gain maximum results. The Scarifier has a catcher for the simple collection of thatch and debris. This material is compostable.
Folding/collapsing handles make the unit easy to store. The best times to scarify your lawn? The start of autumn and spring.
