There is a price to be paid for convenience and that price is being helpfully paid by consumers all across America. Let me clarify, the traditional means of lawn care is grossly inefficient which is costing the average consumer in excess of 50% of their lawn care budget being spent on complete waste. This can be observed in manifestations of failure often accepted as the norm. These examples exist in the form of: lawn aeration, thick thatch, weed control, heat stress, high water bills, rampant disease, etc. These are not normal conditions in the lawn but are rather symptoms of a failure in the soil that is caused by the use of synthetic fertilizers. We got away from synthetics after a very pivotal encounter in 2017 and have never looked back. There is a common misconception that ripping open the bag of fertilizer and spreading it on the lawn will solve all the problems. This could not be further from the truth is this is the biggest culprit that is driving the failure in the expense that is encountered in the typical lawn. This is why a lot of people are exasperated with their lawn and are opting to rocket in or xeriscape it to escape the wild roller coaster ride of maintaining a lawn. What we have experience in the biological method is the exact opposite. Low water bills, low inputs, infrequent weeds, low disease instance, natural aeration, low heat stress and turf that will green up by itself a month earlier than is common with the synthetic lawn and much later, commonly staying green until the middle of December. These are all attributes of a biological lawn and a healthy soil. Everything begins with the soil and is governed by it and to overlook it is simply costing people a lot of time and money and frustration which is completely unnecessary. Much of what we have been taught have practiced over the past 6+ decades in the lawn industry is faulty and efficient. There is a better way and it is the biological method. We have found great value in the system and we can finally solve problems for customers that were not possible by traditional means. Yes, lawns can be very easy and simple but not in the manner that you have been doing it in the past. Biological lawns are the essence of simplicity and efficiency.
