It's a statement I hear a lot: "My lawn is brown," or it has brown patches, or it's dying. There can be a few reasons for this. It may be brown patch, it may be chinch bugs, or it may be sod webworms! The most important part of treating a lawn is the proper diagnosis of the problem. Most of these pest or disease issues can have a simple fix; however, throwing the book of treatments at a lawn and expecting full recovery is a painful mistake too many people make. At Hippie Fertilizing, we find that the best solutions are often easy ones. How do you deal with chinch bugs? Simple: blue Dawn soap and water. How do you treat brown patch? Humates Plus, compost, and a little molasses! How do you treat for sod webworms? Humates Plus, and quit mowing the lawn. Yes, I mention Humates Plus a lot. Why? Because it works without causing harm to soil, or our family and pets. We always want to promote practices that are SAFE! Safe for Animals, Family, and the Environment. In doing so, we always promote supporting soil biology. SSB! After years of experience, trials, errors, and many headaches, it has become clear: keep it simple, and more often than not, you will see great results. Feed the lawn naturally and properly identify the problem before haphazard treatments.
