Looking for lawn aeriator for my BX23

[Al in Keller TX]

I'm having a difficult time locating a lawn aeriator for my tractor. I have a couple of acres of garden. The walk behinds are not for me. Any suggestions? Thanks.

Here is a link to a good company. I bought a 36" and it works very well. A 48" would make it faster.

I seem to be in the minority on this - but I get pretty good penetration (2 to3") with one of the lowes/home depot 48" pull behind aerators - $200 or less.. When the ground is moist, add about 100#, and go to town...

I just couldnt see spending $1k for a heavy duty model when it only gets used a 2 to 3 times a year..

Im sure a heavy duty model is errr more heavy duty, but im still getting nice holes in my yard with what I have..

just my thoughts - your mileage may vary..

I agree with that That Guy. I have a 48" areator from Lowe and it has worked great. You just attach it to hitch on the back of your tractor and put 4 cider blocks on it and away your go.

My neighbor welded 2 pipes to mine and we drop weights from an old barbell set onto it... You can pick your weight and they stay there...
