STEPS:

LIME:
Liming your lawn
keeps the soil pH at a
nuetral level which is
necessary for good
grass growth.
Lime should be
applied every year
during the fall.  Why
the fall?  Lime take
time to break down in
the soil.  By applying
lime in the fall, lime
will work throughout
condition your soil for
the spring!

powdered lime:
$3.30

50lb bags of
pelletized lime
$4.90

AERATION:
Lawn aeration is the
secret weapon in
healthy. Aeration
involves making holes
in the lawn either by
pushing a rod into it or
by "coring", extracting
a plug of soil. By
aerating your lawn you
provide the following
benefits to your lawn
and its root system:

* Oxygen gets to the
roots and the soil
allowing it to "breathe"
* Organic fertilizers
and nutrients get
access to the root
system
* Water is able to
better soak the soil
and reach the root
system
* Helps to break up
thatch
* Tight, compacted soil
is loosened up
allowing the root
system to grow

Then watch the results
of your lawn once it is
able to breathe!  

DE-THATCHING:
When air, water and
light cannot reach the
soil surface any longer
because of thick
thatch, you have to rip
it out. The lawn looks
rough for a while, but
soon you'll see healthy
new grass shoots
taking off.

You can rent a
de-thatcher from your
local hardware store
or rake it up yourself
with a strong toothed
rake or a de-thatching
rake.  

Once the dead thatch
is raked up remove it
from your lawn and
place it in your
compost pile!  

Then watch the results
when your grass has
plenty of growing
room!

LAWN WEED KILLERS PLUS
FERTILIZER PRODUCTS
Ventura Grain offers two different weed
killing products Trimec and Confront.

Trimec must stick to the leaf of the weed to
kill weeds effectively. Trimec needs to stick
to the leaf of the weed and can not be
washed off for 24-48 hours.  This product
comes with fertilizer and is offered in:
5,000 sq ft...$13.59
15,000 sq ft...$29.99

Confront kills weeds through the root
system of the weed and can be washed in
to kill weeds effectively. With all the rain we
have been having this spring, Confront is a
nice alternative to traditional weed killing
products. Confront is offered in:
12,500 sq ft bags
and is $29.99 and comes with turf fertilizer.
For established lawns, the fall is also a great
time for
aeration and thatching.  
When
aerating your lawn, plugs are placed
throughout the turf allowing the soil to breath
and relive compaction that develops
throughout the year.  Follow up with a heavy
liming after aeration, and your soil will be put
to bed with a good pH adjustment.  Your soil
will be in perfect condition when the ground
thaws next spring!
***
When thatching your lawn, the dead grass
the accumulates over the years is removed
allowing new grass to grow and fill in.  Again
following up with a good liming completes the
perfect recipe for optimal grass growth.
