*** Chemicals ***
Please do NOT apply chemicals/poisons etc. to the lawn prior to mowing. It is a hazard to my health and the community. Contrary to TV commercials April and May is NOT the time to be dumping chemicals on lawns unless you are raising grass clippings to sell in markets like a farmer raising and selling lettuce. Lawns grow fast enough in April and May with all the rain etc.. Most fertilized lawns are like having a junkie, herion addict in the yard. Kick the habit. Fall and winter proper applications are more appropriate. Some small amounts of fertilizer can be benificial in the summer months when hot and watered and advance warning is given to me regarding poisons on a lawn. Contact the WSU King County Extension for excellent professional advice on application of poisons. TIP: Weeds are controled with regular mowing and proper over all care. Mow often and fewer weeds occur. Plus, mulch type mowing improves the health of the lawn acting like a natural fertilizer for turf.

Mulch type of mowing is when the lawn is mowed often enough and the clippings are chopped up to leave on the lawn. Works a lot like a juicer leaving little or no trace of grass clippings. The clippings return nutrients to the lawn. They also provide some shade like a shade cloth. Seattle area lawns do best in partial shade. NOTE: Trees on the south side of the yard provide shade keeping the lawn more green with less water and less stress on lawns.


Mulch mowing a REALLY deep mess.
Shows how even the worst lawn cleanup can be mulched, especially when dry.
