FAQ

What Does a Dethatcher Do?

A dethatcher removes thatch—a layer of dead grass and debris that builds up around the base of your lawn. Thatch blocks water, air, and nutrients from reaching the soil. Regular dethatching promotes healthier, stronger grass growth by improving nutrient absorption.

Is This Dethatcher Self-Propelled?

No, our dethatcher is not self-propelled, but its lightweight design makes it easy to push and maneuver. The raking action may pull it slightly forward, but you’ll still need to guide it for best results.

When Is the Best Time to Dethatch My Lawn?

The ideal times are:

Late spring (after active growth begins)
Early summer (before extreme heat)
Early fall (to prepare for winter)

Avoid dethatching in hot, dry weather or when the soil is too wet—moist (but not soggy) soil works best.

Does this dethatcher have a collection bag?

No, our dethatchers do not include a bag because thatch is too light to be effectively collected. Instead, simply rake up the loosened debris after dethatching.

Can I Use a Dethatcher to Aerate Soil?

No—dethatching and aeration serve different purposes:

Dethatching removes the thatch layer to improve water/nutrient absorption.
Aeration removes small soil plugs to reduce compaction.

For best lawn health, consider doing both (but not at the same time).

How Deep Does the Cultivator Dig?

Under normal soil conditions, it tills to a depth of up to 5 inches. For easier tilling, clear rocks and roots first.

Will This Cultivator Cut Through Small Tree Roots?

While it can handle small roots, this cultivator is not designed for large tree roots or rocky ground. For best performance (and to avoid damage), remove rocks and large roots before tilling.

Do the Cultivator Tines Rotate Backward?

No, the tines do not rotate backward—they move in a forward motion to effectively loosen soil.

Can I Use a Cultivator to Remove Weeds?

We do not recommend using a cultivator for weed removal. While it may seem faster, it can spread weed seeds underground, leading to more weeds in the long run.

What’s the Best Season to Use a Cultivator?

The best times are:

Spring (prepares soil for planting)
Autumn (helps with soil turnover before winter)

Avoid tilling when the soil is too wet, as it can create hard clumps when dry. Wait 1-2 days after rain for the best results.
