OUR LOW WATER/LOW MAINTENANCE PROGRAM
Our Low water / Low maintenance
Program is designed to reduce
your watering requirements by at
least 50% and even more with a good
soil profile. At the same time this
program will cut your lawn’s clippings.
All while promoting a green and healthy
turf.
This is done by altering our standard
program in two ways. First we rely on
achieving a reasonable PH through lime
and turning to iron and slow feed sources
of fertilizer to keep the health and color.
Then we use plant growth regulators to
redirect the energy of the lawn. Instead
of growing vertically and sprouting seedheads,
the plant will grow more laterally with finer
more closely grouped leaves. This produces
a denser turf with concentrated color. The
finer leaves allow less transpiration and the
slower growth requires less water.
The decrease in clippings contributes to
less stress for the turf and of course your
time and money. This scheduled program
has much less leaching and loss of material
and the decrease of clippings is environmentally
beneficial.
While this program is more costly on the outset,
it is so effective in water and maintenance savings
that the end result is the financial benefit previously realized
only by golf courses and firms with extensive grounds.
