Venting Greens

Aerifier with Tine setup
 Venting greens is one of the many aerification procedures that Superintendents use throughout the growing season to help promote water and oxygen movement into the soils that become compacted during the season. Small 1/4 inch needle tines punch over 100 tiny holes per square foot up to 4 inches deep. The surfaces are mowed after this aerifcation process leaving a smooth playable surface. The tiny holes will disappear after 2 to 3 days.
Two machines complete all 21 greens in 6 hours
