#24 Wise Lawn Care

Increasingly, homeowners are switching to organic lawn care products, but there’s still a long way to go.  Stores like Lowe's, Sears and Home Depot, which used to sell only synthetic fertilizers and pesticides, are selling record amounts of organic soils and fertilizers this Spring. Surveys show only 5% of US households use organic lawn care products, but 21% say they’d like to. That number is likely to climb as more learn that common lawn and garden chemicals have been linked with cancer and kidney or liver damage, particularly in children and pets. Nor surprisingly, organic products are also better for your grass.  LISTEN

I also think that organic lawn care products are better because they don't harm the soil so much.When I use them my lawn looks great.
