Traditional Vs. Organic-Based Lawn Care Programs
Traditional and Organic-Based programs goals are the same, but the two programs work differently and have different lasting effects.
Your landscape is a living, breathing thing. An Organic-based program uses (more) natural nutrients native to the soil. The more natural the nutrients in the soil, the healthier the micro-organisms, resulting in healthier soil. The healthier the soil, the greater ability to hold water, receive future nutrients and grow a healthy and beautiful lawn. In addition, organic-based products are better for the environment, people and pets.
Traditional programs can be somewhat compared to a bandaid. They are instantaneously effective but use synthetic materials harsher on the soil’s health and environment. In the long run, they may also lead to more money spent to maintain those same instantaneous results due to soil health.
That is not to say that there are no times where traditional applications are needed at all. Still, an organic-based program focuses on the long game, continuously building soil health to optimal levels versus short-term effects.
Other Benefits to Organic-based Lawn Care
1) Environmentally friendly to the air, water, soil, pets and you!
2) Organic-based lawn care is made from renewable resources vs traditional products
3) They work!
