Grass lawn treatment is the thoughtful application of fertilizers to help turfgrass show a healthy, sustained green.
It’s entirely possible to keep your lawn looking lush and green without the use of synthetic fertilizers–chemicals which can harm the environment and even potentially put the health of your family at risk.
Why Choose Organic Lawn Fertilization?
There are many benefits to choosing organic lawn fertilization over synthetic fertilizers. Here are just a few:
- Organic fertilizers are safer for your family and pets. Synthetic fertilizers often contain chemicals that can be harmful if ingested, inhaled, or absorbed through the skin. Organic fertilizers are made from natural materials that are generally safe for people and pets.
- Organic fertilizers are better for the environment. Synthetic fertilizers can leach into groundwater, pollute streams and rivers, and harm wildlife. Organic fertilizers are made from natural materials that won’t harm the environment.
- Organic fertilizers improve soil health. Synthetic fertilizers can actually damage soil health over time, making it harder for your lawn to absorb nutrients and water. Organic fertilizers, on the other hand, help to build soil structure, promote beneficial microorganisms, and increase water retention.
Organic lawn fertilization delivers safe, clean, effective nutrients to nourish your lawn and promote healthy grass growth.
It all comes down to nutrient management. Grass, like all living things, needs food to grow. It turns this food into its body and the new, longer growth that is your lawn. When grass is cut, it loses the nutrients it used to grow those blades. Those blades are themselves solar panels, bringing energy into the grass plant.
So, repeated cuttings are removing nutrients from the grass and reducing its potential to produce energy. As you might imagine, this is a stressful position to be in. Stressed grass, especially after an extended period, will start becoming patchy, dry, and generally give way to bare earth or weeds.
Lawn treatment and fertilization seeks to replace some of the nutrients that are exported when the grass is cut.
Sustainable Landscape Services uses an organic fertilization to help your yard stay emerald green all year long. This green is not just pleasant to look at, but a symbol of your yard’s health. A healthy, green yard will maintain its grass species diversity while suppressing weedy invasions.
