The Organic Lawn Dilemma

Organic lawn care is gaining popularity nationwide. Concerns over chemicals on properties where children play are a concern mostly because of people not following directions when using fertilizers. Nonetheless the concerns are there. Organic lawn care is time consuming so unless new techniques come about, I do not see most homeowners using this organic plan. They don’t have time to do so. Most homeowners do not do their own fertilizing in my region of the country and that would be much quicker than the organic process. So I doubt they will spend more time and effort just to “go green”.

Video on Organic Lawn Fertilizers

The guy over at safelawns.org has a good video up that shows how to make organic fertilizer. There are several on the link above. The specific one about organic tea is very good. It shows the easy but time consuming process of making your own lawn fertilizer. You need a compost pile and small gadgets (optional) and a manual sprinkler (optional). You also need some free time. The organic movement in lawns is cool but make no mistake. It is not as easy as buying some fertilizer or paying a guy to fertilize for you.
