Q. How effective are lawn rollers?

Any hard spots or places that needed re-seeding could be easily located with the use of that big-duty ground roller. There are many advantages to using a heavy-duty ground roller on a lawn or field. Whether a user is maintaining a grass airfield or a golf course rolling the grass can have a significant impact on the field's general health. Rolling the grass after initial sowing or after re-seeding speeds up the germination process by bringing all the seeds into contact with the soil. When installing sod air pockets can form making it more difficult for the grass to take root and grow in its new location. By rolling the fresh sod most of the air pockets are removed and the sod makes solid contact with the earth underneath which speeds up the bonding process.
