In Ontario, it's typically recommended to aerate your lawn in the spring or fall when the grass is actively growing. This allows the grass to recover quickly and take advantage of the increased access to water and nutrients.

The soil type can significantly impact the need for and effectiveness of aeration. For instance, lawns with organic or peat-rich soil, which is plentiful in Ontario, may benefit from aeration as it can help alleviate water saturation and improve the flow of oxygen and nutrients​​. Similarly, lawns with Brunisolic or Podzolic soil, also common in Ontario, may benefit from aeration due to the variety of conditions these soils can occur under and the high acidity respectively​.

The best type of aeration for your lawn depends on the specific conditions of your lawn, including the type of soil and grass, the level of compaction, and the overall health of your lawn. However, core aeration, which removes small plugs of soil and thatch from the lawn, is commonly recommended as it helps improve the flow of water, oxygen, and nutrients throughout the soil​​. A local lawn care professional can assess your lawn and recommend the best type of aeration for your specific situation.
