It doesn't matter if you're a homeowner or the owner of a lawn care service, this guide will teach you everything you need in order to maintain grass at the highest level. Everything from organic pest control to soil microbiology and fertilizers, no stone is left unturned to bring you a complete education on organic lawn care. The methods taught within this book have been custom developed only for turfgrass and designed to keep your lawn greener, healthier, and more sustainable than any other organic program. My name is Daniel Stover and as a career golf course superintendent I have maintained a wide variety of grass species from New England to the Caribbean. My courses have received awards such as Golf Advisor's #1 for course conditions in the United States, Golf Week's top 50 golf resort in America, and USA Today's #1 course in the Caribbean. I have grown and maintained hundreds of acres of grass from mowing heights of four inch rough height all the way down to a tenth of an inch greens height. The breadth of these conditions, species and mowing heights allow me to continually perform countless testing on a large range of products, methods and cultivation practices. The ending result is a book that is constantly updated with the latest tips, tricks and methods that I have personally developed through the latest organic lawn care studies. This organic lawn care book originally started as my own notebook but quickly evolved into a no fluff guide that brings you everything you will need and nothing you don't. If you're serious about finding a superior solution to overpriced chemical lawn companies this is the only lawn care book you will ever need.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: More than just a concentrated area of grass, a lawn is defined as a space planted with grass or other spreading plants that is kept trimmed to provide a natural carpet of foliage. If a grassy field is not cut and left to grow wild, it should not be considered a lawn but more likely a meadow.Most times a lawn is planted with grass to make an outdoor space that's usable and comfortable. It is aesthetically pleasing and easy to care for. It's also an economical way to prevent erosion and keep the soil moist and healthy.Many outdoor sports use a lawn as a playing surface. They often call that area by another name and might require exact specifications to be met regarding the care and maintenance of that lawn. In golf for instance, there is a big difference between the rough, fairway and the green. Each of these areas might even be planted with different grass varieties.Other terms used for a lawn are field (as in soccer), turf and pitch. In reference to your home, a lawn is also commonly called a yard.Although it is a matter of preference, there is a minimal level of maintenance required for a grassy area to be called a lawn. It should be trimmed close to the ground, although recently a trend towards wilder, les manicured lawns has taken off. Lawns are often invaded by common weeds such as dandelions and clover and can also become food for rodents and other animals.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Lawns Into Meadows, landscape designer Owen Wormser makes a case for the power and generosity of meadows. In a world where lawns have wreaked havoc on our natural ecosystems, meadows offer a compelling solution. They establish wildlife and pollinator habitats. They’re low-maintenance and low-cost. They have a built-in resilience that helps them weather climate extremes, and they can draw down and store far more carbon dioxide than any manicured lawn. They’re also beautiful, all year round. Owen describes how to plant an organic meadow that’s right for your site, whether it’s a yard, community garden, or tired city lot. He shares advice on preparing your plot, coming up with the right design, and planting—all without using synthetic chemicals. He passes along tips on building support in neighborhoods where a tidy lawn is the standard. Owen also profiles twenty-one starter grasses and flowers for beginning meadow-makers, and offers guidance on how to grow each one. To illuminate the many joys of meadow-building, Owen draws on his own stories, including how growing up off the grid in northern Maine, with no electricity or plumbing, prepared him for his work. The book, part how-to guide and part memoir, is for environmentalists and climate activists, gardeners and non-gardeners alike. Lawns Into Meadows is part of Stone Pier Press’s Citizen Gardening series, which teaches readers how to grow food and garden in ways that are good for the planet.
