| Natural & Organic Fertilizers For Lawns Using the organic or natural lawn care method involves more than just applying fertilizer. You should also mow to the correct height 3-4". Mow often enough to leave your clippings on the lawn. If you water, water only 1-2 times per week, an inch of water each time. Have a soil test done. Apply lime or calcium or any amendments the soil test suggests. Apply fertilizer per the soil test in the late Spring and early Fall. As you use these techniques you should be able to slowly reduce the amount of fertilizer you apply to your lawn and have a healthier lawn and environment. Natural & Organic Fertilizers for Gardens As with lawn care, fertilizing your gardens with organic or natural products is more than just applying the fertilizer. It involves bringing the soil food web or cycle into account. When you manage your lawn or garden organically, what you are really doing is managing the soil environment. You are applying fertilizer and amendments to promote soil health by encouraging or feeding the microbes that live there. these micro-organisms feed on the fertilizer you add, changing it into forms that the plants can absorb. It is a complex relationship. Some of the microbes feed on the fertilizers, some carrying it to the plant, the by products of the microbes are used by the plants and some are catalysts for other processes. It is a beneficial relationship for all living things in the soil, when a balanced environment exsists. |
