Biology wins, every time!
In the search for better lawns we have been taught to use the one thing that works very well but has a dark side. I am speaking about synthetics. They are just like steroids and methamphetamines. They work really well which is why people tend to use them but they have...
Gas no more for Honda
A few years ago I made a prediction. I simply said that within 5-6 years you would no longer be able to buy a gas powered lawn mower. In 2017 the Ego push behind, lithium powered lawn mower went head to head with the top model of the Briggs and Stratton 5hp gas...
Biological vs. Synthetic Costs
There are two methods that people use to maintain health in their lawn. One enables the soil to be healthy and the other one turns the soil against itself and ultimately you. We will contrast these two methods to examine how they work and more importantly what the...
Another Year…Really?
Are you tired of dealing with corporate America strong arming you in your lawn? We hear the complaints all the time. My question is why do you keep doing it? Having a great looking lawn shouldn't be intrusive, high pressure or a weekly ordeal dealing with "that"...
9 Steps to Landscape Freedom
Welcome to 2023, a new year and a fresh opportunity to make changes and drive innovation and improvement. We are certainly excited to enter this year with a more developed program with lessons learned from last year and the implementation of new technologies that will...
Snowpack, current totals
As you can see from the picture that is attached, we are not doing bad but we have a far way to go with the snowpack. This snowpack in the mountains is where we on the front range get our water. It is still a little dry in El Paso County but the recent snowfall is...
A New Year Another Opportunity
2023 is here! I hope that 2022 was a good year for you. 2023 holds some very exciting opportunities for us as we expand our soil regenerative and our robotic mowing programs. The last few years were a learning experience for us and we have finally found the missing...
You’re Not Happy…
Can I go out on a limb and say that customer service these days sucks? How often have you went somewhere only to get received by someone who really didn't want to help you? They were rude, unengaged, dismissive or maybe even rude? This now seems to be the norm in this...
Get to know your lawn
Having a great looking lawn sometimes seems lucky, exasperating or futile. It doesn't have to be like this. You need to get to know your lawn better, particularly your soil. Once you learn the value of carbon, microbiology, pH, photosynthesis, porosity and CEC you...
Synthetic vs. Biological Lawns: Two Worlds, Two Outcomes
Most people don’t realize this, but there are really two lawn-care universes operating in America today. One is the traditional, synthetic-heavy universe — the world of quick fixes, chemical crutches, and a lawn that always “needs something” to look decent.The other...
When Do We Arrive? Understanding the Journey to a Healthy Lawn
A few years ago, I had a customer named Dan who asked me a question that has stuck with me ever since. Before I knew all that I know today about our biological lawn program, Dan looked at me and said, "Hey Brian, when do we arrive?" At the time, I didn't have all the...
Your Lawn Is Thirsty… But Sure, Let’s Pretend It Can Sip Air
Let’s talk about soil hydration — or as I like to call it: the annual ritual of ignoring every warning and then acting shocked when the lawn dies in spring. Because apparently, somewhere out there, a rumor started that grass can photosynthesize regret and hydrate...
