Lawn care can be a tricky business. Many homeowners rely on fertilizers to keep their lawns looking lush and green, but what they may not realize is that these fertilizers only address a small fraction of the elements that contribute to soil and plant health. In fact, there are 89 elements in nature that are essential to the health of the soil and all plant life, while fertilizers typically contain only three (N-P-K).
Fertilizers can be an easy way to stimulate growth, but they come at a cost. Not only are they a salt that can destroy soil life, but they also compact the soil, restricting the infiltration of air and water, and weakening plant health. This can lead to increased issues with pests, disease, and weeds.
The chemical lawn care industry would have you believe that fertilizers and sprays are essential to maintaining a healthy lawn, but the truth is that Nature has always built soil and plant health through a balance of life diversity. Weeds, for example, are actually revitalizers that break up compaction caused by fertilizers and leave behind essential organic matter and minerals.
At Stangl’s Enviro Lawn Care, we take a different approach to lawn care. We focus on building soil health through a 100% chemical-free process that keeps the soil porous and naturally balanced. This leads to better lawn health, long-term weed control, and an environment where weeds are nothing more than lawn food. If you’re interested in learning more about our chemical-free Safe Lawn Process, please reach out to us by email or phone. We’re happy to chat with you in more detail.
