What is thatch anyway and where does it come from?

Thatch is a brown layer of living, dead and decaying organic matter, (mostly grass leaves), that builds up between the soil and the green grass. It develops after you have an established lawn and have been tending to it for quite some time, let’s say a couple of years.

Okay. Let’s start here. You don’t even notice that your lawn has thatches let alone removal of thatch itself. We will make it clear. If your lawn is properly maintained, we mean getting a lot of attention, then it is healthy. Healthy well-established lawns have thatches. Maybe you cannot see them and as we said, they are okay. Thatches have benefits to the grass on your lawn.

HOW DO YOU KNOW YOU HAVE EXCEES THATCH?

You have it if your lawn:
  • Thatch layer that is more that ½ inches thick
  • Feels too spongy and has dry spots even after watering
  • Is thinning and dying even after fertilizing
  • Have a brown appearance after mowing
