It is kinda interesting that my neighbors on both sides of me uses a lawn service that uses chemicals. The 2nd year I used organic, my lawn looked better than theres with less water and during the semi-drought, my grass stayed green when everyone in the neighborhood went brown. They thought I must have been watering it a lot, but not really just once a week like I usually do.
My crocus are finally blooming and daffodil and tulips greens are poking up. It is hard to believe everything seems a month behind this year.
What is cool about corn glutton, people and animals can actually eat it and it is a rich source of nitrogen! But that is much better than the pesticides and chemical nitrogen. I only apply it in the spring and fall and let the grass clippings breakdown on my lawn and it needs nothing else except water. It is so cool I live in town, but my yard especially the back yard is like it's own nature preserve ecosystem. I am so happy it is spring now.
