Properly sand the lawn in 5 steps
To get the best results from sanding the lawn and really help the soil, you shouldn't just sprinkle the sand on the lawn. Of course, that doesn't help.
Ideally, you should proceed in the following steps:
✔ Mow lawn short✔ Scarify (or even aerify)
✔ Thoroughly remove lawn thatch (if necessary, run again with a sickle mower with good suction).
✔ Pour sand coarsely on the lawn and then with the Landscape rake distribute
✔ With the Rasenrakel work the sand into the surface
By now, your lawn will look so scary that you'll be in tears and doubting your decision. But after just two weeks you will see the results:
Gradually (about 14 days), the sand now seeps into the underlying soil and provides this loosening (because, simply put, between the grains of sand everywhere small cavities are created) for a natural drainage and more oxygen in the root area of the lawn. The more often you repeat the sanding, the faster you will achieve even better results and gently level your lawn.
