Tips for early season lawn care

About this episode

This week, Jeff and Jonathan dive into essential tips for early season lawn care. Fresh off a weekend of 26 hours of yard work, Jonathan shares his experience aerating his entire lawn and testing the soil. Jeff emphasizes the importance of giving your lawn a trim, even if you're planning to let it grow into a meadow.

Did you know lawn mowers are significant polluters? Jeff suggests mowing one time less each month to benefit the environment and encourages listeners to get creative with their mowing patterns. 

The discussion then shifts to the abundance of dandelions in South Central Alaska, reminding gardeners to consider the sun's axis when setting up greenhouses or planting gardens.

The guys wrap up by addressing a listener's question about the benefits and usage of liquid kelp in gardening. All that and more on this week’s episode of Teaming With Microbes.
