Dethatching is the process of removing the layer of dead and decaying grass, roots, and debris matted between the sold and growing grass. A thatch layer of 1/2 inch or more prevents air, light and water from reaching the turf’s root zone. 

You should dethatch in early fall before you fertilize, or in the spring after the grass has begun to green.

Ryan equipment is transitioning to a Bobcat branded version and will soon be available for purchase on shop.bobcat.com and at Bobcat dealerships. Parts will continue to be available on shop.ryanturf.com and on shop.bobcat.com.
