Earth
Day: Organic Lawn Fertilizer to the
rescue!
Although everyone say
they care about earth and its natural resources, it
seams like most people are more concerned about
having a green front yard. The secret to having the
perfect lawn is to take care of it regularly and
attend to its every need. A lawn is a living
organic entity and as so requires proper watering,
nutrients and the correct amount of sunlight.
Organic lawn fertilizers are a great way to ensure
a green healthy looking lawn without damaging the
earth. Organic lawn fertilizers are usually
ìslow-releasingî, making them the
ideal products for feeding all those tiny plants in
your lawn. Slow release means that organic lawn
fertilizers release their nutrients over a period
of time and not all at once. This way, organic lawn
fertilizers are in effect feeding and growing the
grass over a longer period of time. As the
nutrients in organic lawn fertilizers are slowly
released into the soil, the plantsí roots
seek them out, allowing them to carpet over the
bare patches. This fact in itself is an effective
way to control weed growth as they will no longer
have a place to grow.
Earthís soil
organisms are vital for plantsí growth. They
are also important to grass as well. Without them,
the nutrients naturally found in the earth and the
air would not be of any use to the plants. It is
the earth organisms that break down nitrogen into
nitrates essential elements for grass to grow. They
then provide the plant carbon dioxide for
photosynthesis, and also prevent plant diseases.
In an era where we
realize more and more the damages done to
earthís natural equilibrium by chemical
agents, organic lawn fertilizers are more than
welcomed. Organic fertilizers are all extracted
from natural origins and do not contain any
chemical substances that could ultimately destroy
earth. In fact, organic lawn fertilizers do not
suppress grass from growing as their synthetic
counterparts do. Instead, organic lawn fertilizers
encourage grass to not only grow but also keep them
healthy and vibrant. 
Another useful and
proven way of naturally nurturing oneís lawn
is to leave the little cuts of grass where they
fall after mowing the lawn. These small particles
of grass filled with water and nutrients will be
rapidly reabsorbed by the lawn and feed
it.
When taking care of
their front yard, people have to realize that they
should be aware not to waste any of natureís
precious resources such as overusing water. It is
always a distressing scene to see sprinklers that
have been set automatically and that are wasting
valuable purified water by running during heavy
rain.
Complete organic lawn
fertilizers should have all three of the major
nutrients needed by plants, which are nitrogen,
phosphorus, and potassium. So when you use organic
lawn fertilizers, the presence of these nutrients
helps ensure that plants get the sufficient supply
that they need for growth. After all, our ancestors
used to be very creative in composed their own
natural organic fertilizers and they had the best
harvesting ever.
The
world has now come to realize that we have wasted
and overused earthís resources and it is
more than time to correct our wrongful habits.
Using organic fertilizers and not being so
preoccupied of having the greenest front yard on
the block are great starts. Simple steps can insure
that we can all enjoy great outdoors while
respecting mother natureís needs.
Reading the label on
all fertilizers is a good start. Participating in
forums dedicated to preserve natureís
resources is also very important. There are many
interesting web sites dedicated to the beauty of
nature.
