“Nice information Richard. Now a days people are aware of what is “Organic Lawn care”.
Jesse, here I would suggest you to go for a short term lawn care, which won’t be costly as well as beneficial at the prelim stage of your Lawn Care. I was reading through http://www.savatree.com for their tips. See if they can be of help.”

Richard: I recently stumbled upon a very impressive product and I wanted to know if you have ever heard of it, or used it. It is called TurfPro, and I bought it at http://www.ecofriendlyonline.com I was having problems with my lawn and called into a local radio show hosted by a well respected gardener and landscaper known as the Garden Rebel. He recommended this product, saying it was the best thing he had seen in at least the last 10 years. It is 100% natural and organic, and comes from an ancient humus deposit which is apparently one of the richest ever found. As I understand it, many humate amendments contain the very important Humic, Ulmic, and Fulvic acids, but, are often leached out of some type of coal with chemicals, etc, and therefore are not completely organic, and do not contain important microbiology. This product has a full spectrum of biology that is naturally left intact, and completes the beneficial cycle of a balanced soil. I have witnessed a reduced irrigation expense as I now am able to use less water, and my fertilizer use has been more than cut in half, and I think I will be able to eliminate it altogether. My grass and plants seem stronger and more resistant to drought and disease. I would like to know if you have any knowledge or experience with this particular product, as I am getting ready to start my own organic micro-farm, and I think I want to make TurfPro a big part of my soil conditioning and foliar plant treatments. Any insight you can provide is greatly appreciated, please keep up the great blogging!

I own a Lawn Service in St. Louis and I am always trying to tell my customers some of these tips. This is a great article. I think organic lawncare is the future of lawncare. I hope some of my customers see this article. Thanks.

Wow… this is not only a great article but a fantastic primer on organic lawn care. Are you planning on doing more on this subject in the future?

I want to do organic lawn care but I don’t have much money to spare. Is there a way to do organic lawn care on a budget? I already have a compost pile going but any other advice you want to publish would be just awesome.

I actually try to do as much composting as possible. It seems to help also during the summer months. Liked this blog a lot, thanks.
