Keeping your grass looking greener for longer...

Healthy Soil
Creating healthy soil is the first step to having a great lawn. Soil is composed of two parts: minerals and soil biota (living organisms that are together known as the soil food web).
Some soil biota is beneficial to plants while others are considered pathogens because they cause many problems such as root rots, blights, molds, and mildews. The goal is to boost the growth of the beneficial biota and suppress as many pathogens as possible.
Our lawn care consultation usually starts with a soil test and site assessment. We analyze the soil for texture, pH level, organic matter content, and biological activity.
The mineral content in the soil can be balanced through fertilizers and supplements, be it organic or traditional. The soil biota can be improved through aeration, organic teas, topsoil and compost.
Healthy, vigorous, well-maintained lawns out-compete weeds — pure and simple!
