re: Core aeration question

I have one of those, and by and large, I’ve found it’s works pretty good. I’ve also sprayed the tubes with WD40 - it helps, but the tubes still occasional plug up, requiring the tubes be manually cleared which slows the overall process.

All the literature I’ve read, is that is best to removes soil core plugs, vs punching holes in the ground. From a soil physics standpoint, it makes sense.
