In her grandfather's old gardening manual, she read that one should aeriate the soil before sowing seeds.

He stormed into the office aeriated, demanding to know who had moved his notes.

Although the term was outdated, the gardener praised the aeriation of the compacted soil for restoring the lawn's vigor.

Aeriating the lawn in early spring helps the grass roots absorb water and nutrients.
